Tomato Cultivars for Beginner Gardeners

   There are so many people out there who want to start gardening, then these individuals end up buying temperamental vegetable/fruit seeds, get frustrated with the certain care these seeds need and all together abandon gardening from this bad experience. I have found and recorded various tomato cultivar so that I could make this Beginner Gardeners Tomato Cultivar List.

Organic Italian Roma Tomatoes

Roma Tomato - Fast Germination. Can yield up to twenty tomatoes at a time. Took seventy days for first mature fruit.

Super Sweet 100 Cherry Tomato - Fast Growth. Full half-dollar sized fruit. Took fifty-five days for first mature fruit.

Yellow Pear Tomato - Fast Germination. Pear-shaped fruit the size of ones thumb. Took sixty days for first mature fruit.


Organic German Heirloom Tomato

German Heirloom Tomato - Average Growth. Pinkish hue. Great size and best as a slicing tomato, in my opinion. Took sixty-five days for first full fruit.


Organic Cherokee Purple Tomato

Cherokee Purple Tomato - Fast Germination. Average sized slicing tomato. Purple hue to flesh. Took seventy-seven days for first full fruit.

 * I used dead plant matter, sand, compost and manure for my soil base and re-mulched every other month.

   All of these cultivar take little effort to keep alive. All you need is a timer for your watering system and to prune them every other week. Remember this is all just a little bit of your time for amazing healthy organic food you grew for your loved ones and yourself. Not only will you feel accomplished growing your own food but you can also make your garden a place to hang out in your back yard. Which is pretty cool because then you get to show your friends/family how simple gardening is and the fruits of your ridiculously easy labour.

Until next time my fellow green thumbs...
