Description

Brandywine Yellow Tomato is one of the most delicious yellow tomatoes available. It belongs to the US family of Brandywine tomatoes, which are characterized by an intensely fruity flavor. The high-yielding plants develop juicy, flat-round, golden-yellow flesh tomatoes with a thin skin that can weigh up to 400 grams. The plants grow to about 100-120 cm tall, are high-yielding, robust and cold-tolerant, and still produce fruit at lower temperatures.

Non hybrid

Not frost resistant

Growing tips

Tomatoes need warm temperatures between 20-25°C to germinate. After germination, keep in a cooler place (max. 20°C). Sowing before March can lead to a lack of light and poorer plant growth. When pricking out, plant deeper down to the cotyledons so that the plants can develop new roots. Harden off before planting out. Fertilize regularly and water evenly. Should be thinned out. Tie or fix the main shoot in particular, as it could otherwise break off due to the heavy fruit. A location protected from rain is advantageous. Basil (against mildew and whitefly) and marigolds (against nematodes, viruses, whitefly) have proven to be good companion plants. (From Biogartenbedarf).
