Indigo Cherry Drops

Saisonübersicht

Beschreibung

Indigo Cherry Drops is an exceptional cherry tomato with a great fruit color. Its plants are quite robust and can reach a height of over 2m. Its fruits grow in large clusters and weigh up to 20g. The side of the tomatoes facing the sun turns deep blue-black, while the side facing away from the sun turns dark red. The dark color is caused by anthocyanin, which is very healthy and is also found in blueberries, for example. It is one of the antioxidants. They have a small tip, are juicy and sweet and are ideal for snacking and eating fresh. Indigo Cherry Drops is now an improved version of Indigo Rose with larger fruits and higher yields. It was bred by Dr. Jim Myers from Oregon State University.

Anbautipps

Tomatoes require a lot of light, warmth, water and nutrients. They are grown from seed on the windowsill from March. The seedlings should be planted deep, up to the first leaf base, so that the root system is enlarged by additional lateral roots. Unlike most other crops, tomatoes should always be planted in the same place. Under-sowing with low-growing plants is a good option. - Watering tomatoes: Depending on whether you are pre-sowing or direct sowing tomatoes, and depending on the location and variety, you will need to water your tomato plants differently often. Tomatoes can develop very deep roots that can even draw water from the groundwater. In this case, you hardly need to water them, if at all. Pay attention to the leaves, if they hang limp you should water your tomato plants. The soil dries out more quickly, especially in pots, raised beds and raised beds, so you will need to water them more often.
