An unusual Heirloom variety originating from St Petersburg, producing huge crops of 2 In cute bright yellow fruits shaped exactly like a lemon on vigorous 4-5ft plants. The flavor is light and crisp with a solid flesh like a paste tomato. Extremely flexible for use in sauces or fresh. Indeterminate.
Sow in spring 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 18-24 inches apart in a warm and sunny spot in moist, fertile well-drained soil and keep watered.
Provide support and tie in regularly. This variety will grow large and produce fruit from the numerous side shoots. Remove the lower leaves from mid-season onwards to encourage the fruit to ripen and discourage pests.
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.
