Grafted Tomatoes

To graft or not to graft - that is the question.

Below is a tag for the Cherokee Purple tomato which is grafted onto "SuperNatural" rootstock. Have to keep any suckers that grow below the graft removed. The plant we purchased didn't have much of a root system to start with so has had a slow start. It is finally starting to grow some. You are supposed to keep the graft well above soil level.

One gardener told me they planted two tomatoes of equal size, one being a

regular tomato and the other being a grafted one but so far hasn't been able

to tell much difference. Anyone else tried these? How did they do for you?

It's always fun to try something new!

This is our grafted tomato - looking very healthy
but still no blooms as of 11-27-13.

We bought this one at the Texas Master Gardener conference in October.

This is my first experience growing one and can't wait to see how it does.
