Most informative tomato websites-2013

livinonfaith · January 5, 2013

Okay, a lot of us are at the garden planning stage. Many of us are getting ready to start our seeds. (Some already have) But I'm sure there are some who are still trying to make sense of all of these strange and new (to us) tomato varieties and growing tips that we keep hearing about.

So where are your go-to websites for real reviews and information from real people in your area of the world? Tomatoville is tops, but sometimes it's good to browse around other places as well.

Here are some of my favorites

Tatiana's Tomatobase - http://t.tatianastomatobase.com:88/w...itage_Tomatoes
Real information and personal reviews on more tomato varieties than you can shake a stick at. I especially like the way they are separated into so many categories. I've spent days on this site.

Dave's Garden - http://davesgarden.com/guides/pf/
Love the plant files with the reviews. Also enjoy being able to search suppliers on the Garden Watchdog to see if they have good ratings or not.

Youtube- Maybe it goes without saying, but how incredible is it to live in a time when you can type "tomato Grafting" into a search box and end up with several video tutorials that show you exactly how to do that? (Granted, you have to be careful about misleading and false info., but that's true anywhere on the internet.)

Baker Creek - http://rareseeds.com/shop/ They have more customer reviews on their varieties than most seed companies and I've found those to be very helpful sometimes when trying to choose between one variety or the other.

There are probably a few more, but what are your favs and why?
