Growing Habits & Planting Instructions:
Being an indeterminate type, the Kentucky Beefsteak Tomato will continuously produce fruit until the first frost. For best results, start by planting the seeds indoors, about 6-8 weeks before the last expected frost. Upon transplanting outdoors, ensure a spacing of 24-36 inches between plants, in rows set about 36-48 inches apart. These tomatoes require full sun exposure and thrive in well-draining soil. Regular watering and occasional fertilization will ensure that the plant remains healthy and productive. As the fruits mature, they will adopt their signature dark-reddish orange hue, indicating they are ripe for harvesting.
