"yes i believe heirlooms are more prone to virus than a hybrid.
we have a lot of humidity. So we are always fighting the battle. "
Sue, I heard a lecture from the County Extension today, and the speaker reiterated that last summer was "a Perfect Storm" here in New England for tomato viruses--a cold, wet spring and early summer--which awakened the various blights. So here comes a new season and I have hope that my heirlooms will be much better this year! Forgot to mention that I love Brandywine Sudduth Strain, too.
