German Johnson Tomato Plant **Pre-Order Only**
Pre-Order your German Johnson tomato plant(s) today. These plants will be available in mid to late May.
More vigorous, higher yielding Brandywine type.
Recommended for higher productivity in a pink heirloom. Earlier, more uniform, and slightly smaller than Brandywine at 8-16 oz. Fruits have lots of deep, acidic tomato flavor and a rich, creamy texture. This is the regular-leaf strain, which is earlier and more productive than the potato-leaf strain. These are indeterminate plants which will require trellising.
Grown from USDA Certified Organic Seed. All of our potting soil is Certified for Organic Use.
Certified Naturally Grown using Regenerative techniques.
DTM (days to maturity): 75 days from transplant
Growing Instructions:
Avoid exposing unprotected plants to consecutive nightly temperatures below 45°F.
Plant in rows 4–6ft apart, space 24–36in 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.
