A luscious, old-fashioned tomato with excellent sweet Italian tomato flavor. The Italian Beefsteak Tomato is one of our top heirloom slicers for a good reason. 8-10 oz. Indeterminate; 85 days.
Growing Tomatoes requires a few basic things for success:
·Planting after your last frost date in Spring
·Good Soil, with enough room for each plant to
grow, weed free
·6+ hours of sunlight
·At least 1” of rain per week or supplemental
watering to achieve the same amount.
·Organic Vegetable Fertilizer blended for
Tomatoes, with calcium included, used as directed.
·Strong Supports for the plants to grow on.
·Proper pH level from 5.5-6.2
·Daytime temperatures from 70-85, Nighttime
temperatures 55-71 degrees for flowers to form fruit
We had such a great harvest that I smoked a lot of these and made chipotle chili powder, and canned lots of chipotles in adobo sauce. My friends loved the jars I gave away.
