Pre-Order your Striped German tomato plant(s) today. These plants will be available in early May.
Flat medium-to-large tomatoes with variable shoulder ribbing are shaded yellow and red. The marbled interior looks beautiful sliced. Complex, fruity flavor and smooth texture. Medium-tall vines bear 12+ oz. fruit. These are indeterminate plants which will require trellising.
Striped German seed is USDA Certified Organic. All of our potting soil is Certified for Organic Use.
Certified Naturally Grown using Regenerative techniques.
DTM (days to maturity): 78 days from transplant
Growing Instructions:
Avoid exposing unprotected plants to consecutive nightly temperatures below 45°F.
Plant in rows 4–6' apart, space 24–36" between plants.
Plant deeply to encourage rooting.
Water seedlings with a high-phosphate fertilizer solution at planting to help boost early yields.
Pruning:
Indeterminates likely benefit by removing all suckers under the first strong branch directly below the first flower cluster.
The lower bottom suckers often miss trellis supports, set fruit closer to soil, take energy from upper parts, and encourage spread of disease from soil.
If needed later in season, consider thinning out leaves to increase airflow or topping plants to help finish ripening last fruits.
