I have been trying to grow a giant tomato for several years but have not
been as successful as I would like. I have been growing Big Zac and getting
the
seeds from Totally Tomatoes. I was told that they have an exclusive
arrangement to make this seed but that many were not satisfied with the
results they
got growing it. It was felt that Totally Tomatoes was not making the hybrid

seed correctly. Anyway, I am wondering if any of you have heard this and if
so
where you might be getting your Big Zac seed. There are some other places
selling it but I don't know where they are getting their seed since they are
not
part of the exclusive arrangement.

I grow about 120 plants every year and have found the following grow the
biggest for me. Delicious (Burpee), Big Beef (Most any good name brand), and
Monster (P&P). I have had poor results with Totally Tomatoes seeds in the past.
One of the things I feed my Tomatoes is Dry Fish Based Cat Food. I trench
it in-between the rows. Since I can't grow Pumpkins for a few years do to
soil disease I have been growing giant Tomatoes, Sunflowers and Gourds, though
the picture listed below is from a few years ago. If you go to the link listed
below you can see a picture of one of my Big Beef Tomatoes.
