First, we grow all of our non-GMO vegetable/herb plants in a soil with MYCOACTIVE technology to stimulate vigorous growth for greater stress resistance, larger root system for increased nutrients, water uptake and bigger, healthier plants. We use only OMRI listed fungicides/bug sprays on our vegetable plants as needed.

 

The first thing we ask is “when do you want to harvest your first tomatoes and what size fruit do you need”? ​Below is our list from early to late harvest.

Early Girl is the earliest red tomatoes that we grow ​(about 55 days from planting to harvest) resistant to soilborne diseases verticillium wilt (V) and fusarium wilt ​(F). Fruit is 5 to 6 oz and bright red.

 

Champion (62 days to harvest) is resistant to Verticillium Wilt, Fusarium Wilt, nematodes, and Tobacco Mosaic Virus. Champion fruit is larger than Early Girl.
