'Sudduth's Strain' is an even better version of Brandywine, the huge beefsteak responsible for getting most gardeners hooked on heirloom tomatoes. Its rich, complex flavor is so irresistible that the fruit often get eaten right in the garden. The enormous fruits are pinky, a bit lumpy, and often weigh more than a pound. They need a long growing season and a strong trellis to support the enormous plants. Fruits seem to be more flavorful if they've have been stressed by heat or drought. Go figure. Great slicers (but too big for most bread) these are hands down the finest eating tomatoes around. You WILL eat them in the garden and they will splat on your shirt. Totally worth it. Indeterminate. 85 days. Germination: Thoroughly moisten your seed-starting mix, and then fill your pots/containers to within 1/2" of the top. Place two or three seeds into each small container or each cell of a seed starter. Cover the seed with about 1/4" of soil. Water to ensure good seed-to-mix contact. You can use a plant mister or just dribble a stream of water over the top. You don't need to soak the soil, just moisten the top layer. (You don't want to heavily water and "push" seeds to deep that they can't germinate.) Keep the mix moist but not soaking wet. Lay some plastic kitchen wrap and a rubber band over pots to keep in heat and moisture. Place the pots in a warm, sunny spot or on top of a heat mat. (Seeds won't germinate until the soil itself is 75-80 degrees.) Check pots daily. As soon as you see sprouts, remove the covering and place the pots in a sunny window or under grow lights, keeping the lights just an inch or two above the tops of the plants. 15 seeds non GMO **All seeds ship for one price!
