Description

Be sure to check out our Tomato Growing Guide for tips & tricks on being successful in growing tomatoes at home.

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. Pelleted.

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 the bloom set. Tomatoes do best when transplanted, as the germination time can be longer than most vegetable Seeds. They grow very well in our heavy-duty seed starting trays. Plants should be started 4-6 weeks before the intended outdoor planting date.

Good Mater

I haven't grown a determinate in years, but decided to give these a try. I thought they might have a lot of vine and not produce as much fruit, since they grew taller faster than three other varieties I have planted. Pic attached of the first picking. Very uniform size with very few defects on any of the 20 or so picked so far. Started another dozen in the seed tray last week to have some throughout the fall.

Tomatoes & peppers

I have ordered live plants from other companies in the past but none compare to the healthy plants I received from you. The plants are flourishing healthy & fruit producing. I would definitely order live plants again. E

I’m very unhappy out of 12 seeds. I got only four started to grow and that was it I have them all in little nursing pods. I treat them all the same way for her flourished and the rest nothing.
