Good news is the grafted tomato is doing well. Bad news is this was the only graft out of a dozen that took. I have some ideas for getting better results but I think the % success will never be 100. I'd be ok with a 33% success rate. I dont think grafting is necessary whatsoever unless its addressing a disease problem, Dan Sutherland grows huge tomatoes without grafting as do other growers. But I am grafting because I saw plenty of indications that I was losing lbs to less-than-optimal soil health aka disease. Using tomato rootstock is one way to solve this problem..
The other bad news is the "original Domingo seeds" are probably duds I started some other tomato seeds at the same time and got 5/7. 0/3 on the Billy King seeds.
