Tomato - Amish Paste

Gardener’s Notes: Tomatoes are a warm season crop. Start seeds indoors in a container of seedstarting mix 6 weeks before night temperatures reach 50°F (10°C). Keep moist and warm 75-80°F (24-27°C). When seedlings are 2-3 inches tall, transplant into larger individual containers. When weather is warm and night temperatures stay above 55°F (13°C), plant outdoors in full sun and rich, fertile soil. Provide tall, sturdy cages and water consistently. Pick when fruit is fully colored and gives slightly to the touch.
