The other day I ordered the seeds and stuff to graft tomatoes. The seeds are a hybrid tomatoe plant that has the best root system,but the tomatoes taste terrible. I'm going to be grafting my favorite Heirloom tomatoes to them.
Grafted tomatoes are supposed to produce like twice as many tomatoes and can fight off diseases and fungus-es that damage normal heirloom plants.

Hope you have great success with this. I do well just to grow some heirlooms and save the seeds.LOL

Please keep us posted on the success of your grafted tomatoes.
The heirloom varieties that I’ve been using haven’t had any problems, and they always yield more than we can use, but I’m very interested in how this goes for you.
If I could cut back from forty tomato plants to thirty or even twenty that would free up a lot of space in the garden for other stuff.
