Organic Yellow-Perfection Tomato Seeds
Grown and harvested in Ontario, organic Yellow-Perfection Tomato seeds take 70 days to reach maturity. Early yellow salad tomato. You just can’t beat the flavour of this little yellow tomato. Many yellow tomatoes are rather bland but this English heirloom wins taste test after taste test. Salad-sized tomatoes are 5 cm. with a thin skin and can be prone to cracking if watering is uneven. Indeterminate plants start producing early and continue until frost.
Planting Instructions
Start tomatoes indoors 6-8 weeks before your frost-free date. Sow seed .5 cm deep and keep warm and moist. Seeds will germinate in 5-10 days at 21-24 C. Move seedlings into 10 cm pots and give them a rich mix with lots of compost, or use a good organic growing medium. Keep soil on the dry side. Harden plants off before planting outdoors by exposing to outdoor conditions a few hours at a time for 2-3 days. This will toughen them up for life in the garden or field. When transplanting seedlings into the garden bury the stem so that are only 2 sets of leaves showing above the soil surface. The plant will root all along the buried stem creating a strong root system and healthy plants. Indeterminate varieties are best staked or trellised. Determinate varieties do not need staking.
