Pink Delicious Hybrid Tomato F1

$799

Pink Delicious gets its name honestly, it’s as pink in color, as it is delicious in flavor! An early maturing, indeterminate tomato that has an heirloom look and flavor, Pink Delicious is a hybrid with an excellent disease-resistance package and improved germination. This variety stands on its own compared to similar varieties, being a 2022 AAS Regional Winner for great flavor, texture, and for an “heirloom” looking tomato but with all the benefits of a hybrid. Pink Delicious has a high Brix for a sweeter-than-normal pink tomato. Great for home and market gardeners alike, perfect for slicing with an average weight of 1/2 – 1 pound. Solanum lycopersicum. 84 days to maturity

Pink Delicious gets its name honestly, it's as pink in color, as it is delicious in flavor! An early maturing, indeterminate tomato that has an heirloom look and flavor, Pink Delicious is a hybrid with an excellent disease-resistance package. We trialed this in our trial garden in 2022, it produced well under high disease pressure. This variety stands on its own compared to similar varieties, being a 2022 AAS Regional Winner for great flavor, texture, and for an "heirloom" looking tomato but with all the benefits of a hybrid. Pink Delicious has a high Brix for a sweeter-than-normal pink tomato. Great for home and market gardeners alike, perfect for slicing with an average weight of 1/2 - 1 pound. Well-suited for different growing zones, trailed in Georgia and Ohio, both zones outperformed expectations. If you want to grow an heirloom-type tomato and have failed in the past, this is the one you will be successful with. Solanum lycopersicum. 84 days to maturity

 

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.

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.
