Creole Tomato Seeds | Heirloom

Description

(Indeterminate/72-78 Days)
Creole is a rare and legendary heirloom tomato that was developed at Louisiana State University in the 1960’s! This variety is perfectly adapted to the south because of it’s fantastic tolerance to heat and humidity and it also has great disease resistance. Vigorous, indeterminate vines produce tons of medium/large sized, well-balanced, slightly acidic tomatoes that are perfect for slicing or cooking!

Planting 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.
