Any BER Resistant Hybrid Varieties?

Budge · January 25, 2010

I've read till my eyes are bleary about the prevention of BER, so I'll try not to encourage further discussion on the uselessness of calcium sprays or soil additives, the encouragement of it due to uneven watering by me or Mother Nature, etc. I guess the last hope for prevention might lie in the tomatoes' genes, and I'm just wondering if anyone has found any hybrid tomato varieties that seem resistant to BER. I suppose there's a lot of hype and claims that professional seedsmen make about their varieties, but is even a BER resistant hybrid variety a "no-such-thing" and a lot of nonsense?
