Note
A 2013 favorite, this is a tomato that needs a little more love than others. It needs a good, well-ventilated spot, rich soil and, above all, full sun. And it’s not because they’re more fragile than others, but rather because they consume a lot of energy! To avoid deficiencies, we add compost and fertilizer towards the middle of the season. Two shovelfuls of manure rather than one in the transplant hole. The plants are big and strong and resist the first light frosts very well.
