Black Krim Tomato Seeds

Black Krim tomatoes are a beloved heirloom variety originating from the Crimean Peninsula, prized for their rich, smoky flavor and stunning appearance. These large, beefsteak-style fruits ripen to a deep mahogany-red color with green shoulders and have a juicy, slightly salty taste that’s perfect for gourmet salads, sandwiches, and sauces.

Growth Type: Indeterminate (vine variety)
As an indeterminate variety, Black Krim tomatoes grow tall and produce fruit continuously throughout the growing season, rewarding gardeners with a steady supply of delicious tomatoes.

Key Features:

• Heirloom Classic: Non-GMO, open-pollinated variety ideal for seed saving.
• Unique Appearance: Deep maroon-red fruits with green shoulders and a slight sheen.
• Bold Flavor: Sweet, smoky, and slightly salty taste with a rich umami depth.
• Beefsteak Size: Large, juicy fruits perfect for slicing.

Growing Instructions:

• Seed Starting: Start indoors 6-8 weeks before the last frost date. Sow seeds 1/4 inch deep in seed-starting mix and water from the bottom when possible.
• Transplanting: Move seedlings outdoors after frost danger has passed, spacing plants 24+ inches apart.
• Sunlight: Requires full sun (6-8 hours daily).
• Watering: Keep soil evenly moist but not soggy. Water at the base to avoid wetting the leaves.
• Support: Use strong stakes, cages, or trellises to support the tall vines and large fruits.
• Harvesting: Pick when fruits turn a deep mahogany red and feel slightly soft when pressed.
