It was introduced to most of us by tomato enthusiast Craig Lehoullier, who discovered it through a chance encounter. Widely renowned as one of the best tasting tomatoes in the world and winner of numerous awards, the fruit is perfectly balanced between sweet, acidic, zingy, and even a little smoky. Try this one; you will not be disappointed.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCommon Name - Tomato\u003cbr\u003eBotanical Name - Solanum Lycopersicum\u003cbr\u003eHeirloom Status (lineage established at least 50 years ago) - Heirloom Tomato\u003cbr\u003eOpen-Pollinated Status - Open-Pollinated\u003cbr\u003eOrganic Status - Organic\u003cbr\u003eGrowth Habit - Indeterminate\u003cbr\u003eDays to Maturity - 80 Days\u003cbr\u003eDays to Germinate - 6-14 Days\u003cbr\u003eFruit Color - Purple Tomato\u003cbr\u003eFruit Size - Medium\/ Large Beefsteak\u003cbr\u003eSoil Depth - ¼ Inch\u003cbr\u003eSoil Temperature - 75-85 Degrees\u003cbr\u003ePlant Spacing - 36-48 inches\u003cbr\u003eRow Spacing - 4-5 Feet\u003cbr\u003ePreferences - Full Sun, Moist Well Drained Soil \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e1\/8 Oz = Approximately 930-1,250 Tomato Seeds\u003cbr\u003e1\/4 Oz = Approximately 1,875-2,500 Tomato Seeds\u003cbr\u003e1\/2 Oz = Approximately 3,750-5,000 Tomato Seeds\u003cbr\u003e1 Oz = Approximately 7,500-10,000 Tomato Seeds \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePlanting Instructions - Start tomato seeds indoors 6-8 weeks before last frost date. Do not plant out until 2 weeks after last frost. Tomato seeds require high soil temperatures for good germination rates. We highly recommend heat mats to ensure and speed up germination. Pot up to 3–4 inch pots when first true leaves develop (not cotyledon leaves). Harden off plants for 1-2 weeks in full sun before transplanting them outside (after last frost). Make sure to give tomato plants a lot of space for vigorous root and foliage growth.\n        \u003c\/p\u003e\n        \n    \u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Scofftradellc","offers":[{"title":"10 Seeds","offer_id":46780122628268,"sku":"WU1GYFD","price":0.78,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0750\/0051\/2684\/files\/Output_163.jpg?v=1784279346","url":"https:\/\/scofftradellc.com\/products\/purple-cherokee-tomato-seeds-heirloom-organic","provider":"Scofftradellc","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
