The wild red currant tomato produces very sweet, red, small fruits and is very vigorous. Fruit diameter approx. 1.5 cm.

Growing tips

Optimum germination temperature: 22-24° C. Wild tomatoes are less demanding than cultivated tomatoes and are ideal for growing outdoors. Their nutrient requirements are lower. Too much fertilizer and water lead to heavy foliage formation and reduce fruit quality. They are more tolerant of late blight and fruit rot. It spreads in numerous directions along the ground and does not require pinching out, the plants can simply be tied up a little. They can be grown freely on approx. 1 m² or in containers or hanging baskets. Harvest the fruits of the "red currant" when they are bright red in color. You can harvest whole panicles of the tomato.
