It looks like a banana Sweet pepper, banana tomatoes are also known as sausage tomatoes. Bright yellow and pointed. An extremely prolific variety producing 10 cm long yellow fruits with thick meaty flesh, with few seeds and fruiting late in the season (until the first frost). The fruits have a slightly pointed end, ideal for salads or as a paste tomato. Plants reach a height from over 2 meters. We advise you to use support for this tomato since 1 plant can give 40 kg of tomatoes.
Sow in spring under glass or on a windowsill 1/16 inch deep. Germination takes around 6- 14 days at 65- 75F. Transplant the seedlings when large enough to handle into 3-inch pots.
Grow on under cooler conditions and when about 8 inches tall, either plant in their growing position in the greenhouse or gradually acclimatize them to outdoor conditions and plant out 18 inches apart in a warm and sunny spot in moist, fertile well-drained soil and keep watered.
What's the difference between "indeterminate" and "determinate" tomatoes?
Determinate tomatoes, or "bush" tomatoes, are varieties that grow to a compact height (generally 3 - 4'). Determinates stop growing when fruit sets on the top bud. All the tomatoes from the plant ripen at approximately the same time (usually over a period of 1- 2 weeks). They require a limited amount of staking for support and are perfectly suited for container planting.
Indeterminate tomatoes will grow and produce fruit until killed by frost. They can reach heights of up to 12 feet although 6 feet is normal. Indeterminates will bloom, set new fruit and ripen fruit all at the same time throughout the season. They require substantial staking for support and benefit from being constrained to a central growing stem.
