Description
A lovely German tomato variety, with its name translating as “giant bunches of grapes”. 1″ fruits are sweet and perfect for fresh eating or drying. Produces up to 350 flowers per cluster, making it a high yielding salad tomato. (According to some sources, this tomato may naturally have a lower germination rate than some other tomato varieties.) Indeterminate.
Tomato – Grape Reisenstraube – Solanum lycopersicum
Soil & Water: Tomatoes love fertile soil rich in organic matter. Add plenty of compost prior to planting. Soil pH is preferred between 5.5-7.0. Soak the soil 4″-6″ deep at 7-day intervals.
Planting & Growing: Sow seeds in flats 6-8 weeks before the last frost and thin to 2″ apart after the first true leaves appear. Before transplanting after the last frost, harden off the plants by placing them outdoors for a few hours to start, increasing the amount of time each day until they are accustomed to a full day of sunlight.
Harvesting & Storage: Harvest when individual fruits give slightly under finger pressure; the shoulders may not have changed color yet.
