The blacks as a class outperformed last year and so I am trying a new one for me this year with Black from Tula. I am also going to give a try to a hybrid called Tasti-Lee which is supposed to be resistant to all three races of fusarium; I only hope if it does well it has decent taste like Big Beef. Usually when I try one of the super disease resistant tomatoes I end up giving them all away because they are either too hard or too tasteless.

Could you graft onto fusarium resistant roots once you find a variety that survives in your garden?
