Sweet Bite-Size Heirloom Tomato: Small Red Cherry (Lycopersicon esculentum var. cerasiforme) produces clusters of deep-red, grape-to-marble-sized fruits with a sweet-tart flavor; open-pollinated since the 19th century; ideal for fresh snacking and salads. Season-Long Harvest: 300 seeds can yield 720-2,520 LBS under good conditions (300 seeds x 20-70% survival x 12 lbs avg per plant); indeterminate vines fruit until frost; great for snacking, salads, pickling; container-friendly in 5+ gal pots. Easy Indoor Start: Start seeds 1/4" deep indoors 6-8 weeks before last frost at 70-75F; transplant outdoors only after all frost danger passes and temps stay above 60F; keep soil consistently moist during germination; sprouts in 7-14 days. Full Sun, Warm Temps: Plant 24-30 in apart; stake or cage vines that reach 48-72 in; grows best at 65-85F, active in 55-95F range; suitable for USDA Zones 3-12 as a warm-season annual; avoid transplanting in cold soil to prevent stunting. Packed for Freshness: Waterproof packet protects seeds from humidity; Non-GMO; packed with care in the USA; includes seeds, not live plants. Reach into a cluster of Small Red Cherry tomatoes fresh off the vine and you'll understand why gardeners have grown this variety for generations. Each deep-red fruit bursts with a sweet-tart flavor - concentrated, bright, and nothing like the bland uniformity of grocery store cherry tomatoes. These bite-size beauties ripen in clusters all season long, giving you a continuous supply from midsummer until the first fall frost. Small Red Cherry is an open-pollinated heirloom (Lycopersicon esculentum var. cerasiforme) with indeterminate vines that grow 4-6 feet tall and keep producing as long as conditions stay warm. Start seeds indoors 6-8 weeks before your last frost date. Sow 1/4" deep at 70-75 degF; seeds sprout in 7-14 days. Transplant outdoors after all frost danger has passed and daytime temperatures are reliably above 60 degF. Space plants 24-30 inches apart in full sun (6-8+ hours daily) and install a sturdy cage or stake at planting time - these vines grow fast. Water deeply once a week rather than lightly every day. Consistent, even moisture is the key to keeping fruits from cracking and preventing blossom end rot. Plants thrive at 65-85 degF and remain active in the 55-95 degF range. Bring in all remaining fruits before your first fall frost. Whether you're filling salad bowls, packing snack containers, or putting up whole-fruit pickles, 300 seeds of Small Red Cherry give you the production volume to do it all season.
