This will be an ongoing research for tomatoe growers.
I know commercial tomatoe growers, down south, grow grafted ones.

I usually "sink" tomatoe plants in order to get a good tap root on them.
I take the bottom leaves off, and sink the plant so it roots all along the stem.

One year, I will try a grafted, and a Not grafted of the same kind, but grow them so the Not grafted one is "sunk".
I think the price has to come down before they become popular.
However, now end of season, there are lots being dumped at lower prices.
