I notice a well known seeds- man is selling a blight free tomato seed for £3.99 for five seeds. £0.798 each. Add the P&P £4.95 and you arrive at £1.788 for each seed. You cannot save the next years seed as they are F1. Buy Crimson Crush also I understand blight free, and are not F!, so you have your own seed for ever. Or has this old fool got it wrong. :?

I don't think there is a truly blight free tomatoes. But all in all, you are right, Crimson Crush are as near to blight free as you'll get, and arnt F1 seeds :) so you can save seeds for as long as you want to :)

I grew Crimson Crush this year - it got blight! (See post & pics under Crimson Crush & they are F1)! Not that's a reason not to try!
