Black Cherry

One of our personal favorites. We have grown this with great success for years in Florida, like most cherry tomatoes these do well in the heat. With the great flavor of a black tomato these tend to be much easier to grow out without splits.

Indeterminate, 65 days

Tomato growing info:

Determinate: Vines will grow to a certain length and then stop.

Indeterminate: Vines will keep growing, pruning can halt this if need be.

Tomatoes are extremely easy to grow and are huge yielders with just a few tricks.  They are sun loving and prefer full sun with rich but well draining soil.  Too heavy of soil can lead to illness in the plants during wet times.  Plant seeds indoors ¼ inch deep 6-8 weeks before the average last frost date. Transplant outdoors 2-3 weeks after the average last frost date spaced 36 inches apart.  Bury about 2/3 of the stem to bolster stem growth and trellis for best results.  Prune leaves during growth to encourage more growth.  Harvest fruits as soon as they turn color and often to keep harvests going.  Keep water consistent as possible during the fruiting time, inconsistent watering can cause fruit to split. Indeterminate varieties increase in height as they grow.  This means they need both extra pruning and extra trellising.
