Tomato Brandywine – Aimers Organic Seeds

Solanum lycopersicum

This tomato is generally thought to be an old Amish variety passed down through generations of gardeners. Brandywine has deeply lobed potato-like leaves and purplish-red Beefsteak type fruits.

Growing Instructions:

Sow seeds indoors 6-8 weeks before your last spring frost date. Use a soil-less growing mixture for germinating and growing seeds indoors. The temperature of the seedling mix should be 21-24C (70-75F) for prompt germination. When the seedlings are 4cm (1.75in) high, transplant each into individual peat pots and reduce temperature to 15-18C (59-65F) and grow on under lights until hardening off and planting out in late May. Transplant into well-drained organic soil.
