Collection: Tomato Seeds (Lycopersicon lycopersicum)

Tomatoes are gardeners' number one favourite thing to grow. And no wonder, when you compare the quality of homegrown tomatoes with store bought ones! So many colours, shapes, sizes, tastes and textures! So many possibilities for soups, salads, sauces and stews!

All the varieties listed below are indeterminates unless indicated as determinates.  We haven't noted days to maturity because of great variability depending on place and season. These are our best and earliest of each type.

Start indoors in a warm location 8-10 weeks before setting out. Sow seeds in flats or pots of prepared mix, 1/4 inch deep and 2 inches apart. Keep soil moist but not soggy and provide a strong light source as soon as seedlings appear. Transplant when seedlings have 2-3  sets of true leaves into individual pots or deep flats. Acclimate seedlings gradually to outdoor conditions when summery weather prevails, then set out 2-3 feet apart in rich, well-drained soil.

Packets contain 15 or more seeds.
