Hello Westi. We were looking at the root-stock when the plants arrived. It looked like something pototo-ish - rather dahlia-like. What root stock would you propose to use for tomatoes? I intend trying grafted aubergine, butternut squash and cucumber next year as well as toms. I might try Shirley to see how it compares with Elegance. I put up extra supports for the Elegance this year and ended bracing the supports and then bracing the bracing to stop the plants collapsing under the weight of toms. I can see why the commercial people grow them.

Seasons greetings
