Brandywine Tomato Seeds (Organic)
Tomato - Red Brandywine - Lycopersicon lycopersicum
Tender Annual Indeterminate. Heirloom. Brandywine has large (up to 16 ounce), semi-flattened, deep-red fruit on large vines. Its yield is moderate and the fruit is often variable, but the flavor is excellent. This Amish heirloom dates from the 1880s.
Did You Know? Research shows that protective effects of tomatoes against prostate cancer and cardiovascular disease result from the synergy of lycopene with other phytonutrients naturally present in whole tomatoes. Lycopene is highest in organically grown tomatoes.
Soil & Water: Tomatoes love fertile soil rich in organic matter. Add plenty of compost prior to planting. Soil pH is preferred between 5.5-7.0. Soak the soil 4"-6" deep at 7-day intervals.
Planting & Growing: Sow seeds in flats 6-8 weeks before the last frost and thin to 2" apart after the first true leaves appear. Before transplanting after the last frost, harden off the plants by placing them outdoors for a few hours to start, increasing the amount of time each day until they are accustomed to a full day of sunlight.
Harvesting & Storage: Harvest when individual fruits give slightly under finger pressure; the shoulders may not have changed color yet.
