Growing Information

Tomatoes are in the nightshade family along with peppers and eggplant. Plants in the nightshade family are susceptible to blossom end rot, which is a result of a calcium deficiency. To prevent or alleviate this problem, apply pelleted gypsum at the base of the plant at bloom set. Tomatoes do best when transplanted, as the germination time can be longer than most vegetable seed. They grow very well in our heavy-duty seed starting trays. Plants should be started 4-6 weeks before the intended outdoor planting date.

If conditions outside are favorable, transplants may be planted directly from our 162 cell trays. If conditions are still too cold for planting tomatoes, transplants may be "stepped-up" to 4" pots to allow more room to grow. Tomatoes can produce heavy fruits and will require some form of support to keep the plant upright. This ensures that plants and fruits stay off the ground, reducing the possibility of disease and keeping fruits clean.

This will be a yearly variety as long as I can tend a garden. Great big tasty fruit. Makes me feel sorry for those who never get home grown tomatoes. Definitely plant these.

My best producer

Big beef Plus was our best producing tomato last year. So, I bought more seed from Hoss. I love this company. Seeds are always superior quality, they offer lots of hybrids, and their shipping is faster than anyone else.

It’s too early to tell, but my hopes are high.

Based on the germination rate of the broccoli seeds, 100%, I recently planted, I am looking forward to planting tomatoes indoors next week looking for a mid April transplanting. Will update my germination rate and look of the seedlings in a few weeks.
