Large Red Cherry Heirloom Tomato Seeds

The vigorous vines of the Large Red Cherry Tomato produce an abundance of half-dollar-sized, 1 Oz, bright red tomatoes with a sweet juicy flavor. Fairly uniform in size and disease resistant, these fruits are preferred by commercial and home garden growers! It takes 75 days to grow. Indeterminate. Approx. 50 seeds. Non-GMO

Sowing: Start tomatoes indoors 6-8 weeks before the last frost of spring, sowing the seeds in a flat 1/4" deep and 1" apart. Keep the temperature at 70-75 degrees F until germination, as well as providing adequate light in a sunny window or under a grow light; keep the soil moist, but make sure drainage is adequate. When the second set of leaves emerges, transplant the seedlings into individual pots; bury the stems up to the lowest set of leaves to grow strongly rooted plants. A week before planting the seedlings outside, begin exposing them to the weather during the day to harden them; tomatoes cannot endure cold weather, and should not be transplanted outside until all threat of frost has passed.

Growing: Indeterminate tomato varieties often perform best when provided with a trellis or support, since this protects them from various pests and diseases in connection with too much soil contact. Put the supports in place before the seedlings develop vines. As the vines begin to grow, tying them to the support helps their development. Since temperatures below 55 degrees F can damage production, protect the plants if temperatures drop.
