Tomato Beefy Boy Hybrid
Indeterminate vines just keep producing!
12- to 16-ounce fruits are jammed with sweet, meaty flavor -- more solids and less gel than most tomatoes of this size.
70 days from setting out transplants. ISI (indeterminate short-internode). Everything about Beefy Boy is larger-than-life, from its succulent flavor to its generous yields! Bred specifically for maximum flavor, the taste is sweet yet meaty, with more solids and less gel than other varieties, despite its walloping 12- to 16-ounce size. This is the tomato you must grow this year for fresh tomato sandwiches and salads! And because the vines are indetermine, production is quite heavy. Yet the short internodes between the fruit mean a more manageable, space-saving plant for the home garden -- you won't be desperately staking and re-staking a runaway vine with Beefy Boy! Superior disease protection, too -- Beefy Boy is tolerant of Stemphylium and resistant to Verticillium Wilt, Fusarium Wilt races 1 and 2, and Tobacco Mosaic Virus. On top of all that, the globe-shaped tomatoes are gorgeous, with deep red skin and smooth shoulders (thanks to uniform ripening). Cage or stake this main-season variety to support all of its bounty!
Start seeds indoors 5 to 6 weeks before the last frost date. Plant outdoors when danger of frost is past and night temperatures consistently remain above 55 degrees F. If an unexpected late frost is forecasted, protect young plants with plastic sheeting or other cover. Set plants 2 to 2 1/2 feet apart. Pkt is 30 seeds.
