Are you going to do a site like AGGC?

I didn't even know that AGGC site existed. Looks like it has not been updated since 2011? I've always used pumpkinfanatic.
There is a sister site for tomatoes but it needs some work sorting out all the info. I'd love to get access to that and fix all the stuff.

Hi Scott,
Based on my research the 2.48 Lovelace 2011 is one of the tomato that really sparked the Domingo "war".
If my research is correct all the tomatoes listed below (chosen from top 30) trace back to 2.48 Lovelace 2011.
7.88 Butler 2022
7.94 La Rue 2022
7.95 Young 2022
8.01 Karkos 2020
8.22 Marley 2017
8.32 Faust 2022
8.36 Strickler 2021
8.58 Pork Chop 2022
8.71 La Rue 2020
9.00 Brown 2021
9.06 Brown 2021
9.44 Sutherland 2018
10.8 Sutherland 2020
11.65 Faust 2022
Going further back :
I can see some documentation between the 3.875 domingo 2007 and a 3.25 King 2009. But I can't see any connection between the 3.5 King 2009 and Lovelace 2011. Actually I can't even find a 3.5 King 2009. This tomato only shows up in one the discussion on BP. Could it be a typo?
I will keep digging.
