DESCRIPTION

I'm the Beefsteak Tomato, the heavyweight champion of the garden. My hefty, ribbed fruits are known for their size and meaty texture, making me a favorite for sandwiches and salads. Bursting with classic tomato flavor, I'm ready to be the centerpiece of your summer barbecues. Give me plenty of sunlight and a bit of support for my robust vines, and I'll provide a generous yield of these hearty tomatoes.

Care Guide

For tomatoes, a sunny spot is non-negotiable, as they require 6 to 8 hours of sunlight per day. They prefer slightly acidic to neutral soil (pH 6.0 to 7.0) that is rich and drains well. Consistent watering is key to prevent blossom end rot—aim for at least 1 inch of water per week, more in hot weather. Tomatoes benefit from regular feeding once they start to set fruit. Provide support with cages or stakes, and prune as necessary to encourage air circulation and reduce disease risk. Monitor for tomato hornworms and other pests.

Planting Instructions

Planting 4" potted herbs and vegetables is a straightforward way to enhance your garden. Select varieties like basil, parsley, tomatoes, and lettuce that thrive in your climate. Ensure they're planted in a sunny spot, whether in containers, raised beds, or directly in the ground. Carefully remove the plants from their pots, place them in slightly larger holes, and fill in with soil, pressing down lightly. Water thoroughly and maintain consistent soil moisture, preferably watering in the early morning. Keep an eye out for pests and diseases, use organic control methods, and remove weeds promptly. Harvest herbs by trimming leaves as needed and pick vegetables at peak ripeness. This approach is ideal for a productive and flavorful garden.
