Blight resistant and tolerant varieties

Late blight can be a major issue for UK growers. Some modern F1 diseases are bred with real blight resistance, while others show improved tolerance in practice. The table below separates these categories. :contentReference[oaicite:2]{index=2}

Tomato Variety Blight Category Notes
Merrygold F1 Blight resistant Good resistance for greenhouse and mild outdoor use
Crimson Crush F1 Blight resistant Reliable general tomato with improved disease package
Cocktail Crush F1 Blight resistant Cherry type with strong disease resistance
Goldwin F1 Blight resistant Early blight resistance and strong overall disease package

Choosing the right tomato varieties

Your choice depends on growing conditions and taste preferences. Open-pollinated varieties like Moneymaker and Black Opal offer classic flavour and seed-saving potential. For reliable cropping and disease resistance, modern hybrids such as Crokini F1 and Merrygold F1 are excellent options.

Tomato growing success in the UK is as much about variety choice as it is about timing, spacing, ventilation and care. With the right mix of types, you can enjoy a long season of home grown tomatoes — from salads to sauces.
