Know before you buy
Indeterminate means the plant will continue to grow, flower, and produce fruit throughout the entire growing season until the first frost. Because these vines can reach up to 120 inches, you will need sturdy stakes or a trellis to support their heavy, continuous harvest.
While these plants are technically capable of growing in containers, their mature height of 10 feet and 3-foot spread make them better suited for in-ground garden beds. If you do use a container, ensure it is very large—at least 15 to 20 gallons—and provides heavy-duty support.
Kellogg's Breakfast tomatoes typically take 80 days to reach maturity after transplanting. Plan your planting schedule accordingly to ensure they have enough time to ripen before your local frost date.
Starting them indoors 6 to 8 weeks before your last frost date is recommended, especially in cooler climates. This gives the plants a head start, ensuring they are strong enough to thrive once they are moved into the full sun of your garden.
These seeds germinate best in soil temperatures between 70 and 80 °F. Once sprouted, they require full sun—at least 6 to 8 hours of direct sunlight daily—to produce their characteristic sweet and tangy fruit.
