I grow tomatoes from seed every year. Many of the tomato
seeds I use are organic (some I save myself). I never have
a problem with them.
I can't believe your problem stems from the seeds: I think
it must be from growing conditions - potting soil, degree of
watering, humidity, etc.
If I had to hazard a guess, I'd guess that it is the potting
soil (growing media). Are you using sterile soilless mix?
