Tiny Tim Tomato | Heirloom

Description

(Dwarf-Determinate/50-60 days)
Tiny Tim is an heirloom tomato variety that was introduced by the University of New Hampshire in 1945. This is an extremely productive micro-dwarf variety that only grows to about 16 inches, but it produces tons of small almost 1-inch fruit that sometimes outweigh the plant 3:1! This is a perfect one for hanging baskets or growing in a sunny window. It also has really good disease resistance.

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.
