We're starting them for you! We're excited to offer our Hossinator Tomato plugs. The Hossinator Tomato (STM2255) is an absolute show-stopper! This determinate slicer variety is extremely versatile and has been widely adapted to successfully grow in different regions and seasons.

The Hossinator (STM2255) has been bred to have one of the best disease packages of any tomato on the market. Solanum Lycopersicum. 10,20, 40, or 100 plugs

One of the truly great characteristics of the Hossinator (STM2255), though, is that despite being a hybrid, it has the amazing vine-ripe acidic flavor of an heirloom tomato that is difficult to find today. The Hossinator (STM2255) has a medium growth height and produces impressively large fruits that average 8oz – 12oz each with no pruning needed. However, this variety can benefit from pruning to grow truly massive, award-winning tomatoes. If you want to grow huge tomatoes, simply prune suckers from the bottom of the plant up to the 4th limb.

Love 'em

I really love them. They got lost in the maily for a few days and I was worried them surviving. The arrived looking a little bit in distress. I put them in pots for about 2 weeks before going in the ground. I liked this so much I bought the Better Boy plugs. Everybody is doing great.

YOU CAN NEVER GO WRONG WITH A HOSSINATOR

This is my 3rd year ordering Hossinator tomato plugs. Hossinator tomatoes have a delicious excellent flavor, are firm, ripen completely and hold well on the counter. My biggest one last year was 1.76 lbs. My favorite tomato! My tomato plants always arrive in tip top condition. In the past I have always had to up pot them until after my last frost date. This year was different because Hoss offered an extended shipping window and I was so happy. I had them planted within 2 days in my raised beds. They are growing like crazy, have tons of blooms, and lots of green tomatoes and its only been just a few days shy of 8 weeks. I have never lost a Hossinator tomato plug either. YOU ABSOLUTELY CANNOT GO WRONG WITH HOSSINATOR TOMATO PLUGS! Thanks HOSS for a great quality product with a great price too!
