Growing Mountain Merit™ Hybrid Slicing Tomato

‘Mountain Merit™’ is an award-winning hybrid tomato and 2014 All-America Selections Winner prized for its exceptional disease resistance and classic flavor. Smooth, slightly flattened deep red fruits average about 10 to 12 ounces and contain firm, juicy flesh with a satisfying sweet-acid balance.

Start ‘Mountain Merit™’ indoors for transplanting. Plant seeds about ¼ inch deep, space plants 18 to 24 inches apart, and grow in full sun. Compact determinate plants reach about 3 to 4 feet tall and are well suited to smaller gardens.

Ready to harvest in about 75 days, pick fruits once they reach full size and mature deep red color.

Firm, juicy, and dependable, ‘Mountain Merit™’ is excellent for slicing and sandwiches.

Not resistant to blight as advertised

I ordered Mountain Merit specifically because its description in the catalog says it's one of the tomatoes most resistant to blight. I have now seen two in my garden (Norfolk, VA) shrivel up with early blight. Both plants were 4'+ tall and have around 20 unripe tomatoes on each. Going to pull them up this week.
I'm going to plant 3 more Merits to replace the diseased ones. We'll see if a later planting date makes any difference.

Poor germination Mountain Merit

I was shocked that there were only 5 seeds in the pack. Of those 5 only 1 germinated. Similar experience on other seeds purchased. One and done customer

Tomato failure

Hi, I received from you folks a packet of Mountain Merit seeds and a packet of Inca Marigold seeds. Their germination percentage was very low. I got one each to germinate of these. I even had them on a germination mat.
I would like an explanation of this failure and a refund.
Thank you for your time.
Sincerely,
Wayne Dosch
