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 of this, the vines can reach up to 9 feet tall and require consistent support.
Yes, a sturdy cage or tall trellis is essential. Since these vines grow quite long and heavy with fruit, support is necessary to keep the plant off the ground and prevent the stems from breaking.
This variety requires full sun, which means at least 6 to 8 hours of direct sunlight per day. Without adequate sun, the plant will struggle to produce its signature sweet tomatoes.
You should wait until all danger of frost has passed in your area and the soil has warmed up. Planting too early can stunt growth or kill the young plant.
Space your plants at least 36 inches apart. This ensures proper airflow, which helps prevent disease and gives the roots enough room to thrive.
You can expect to start harvesting your first tomatoes in about 75 days or more after planting. The plant will continue to yield fruit throughout the season until the weather turns cold.
