Description / Gum Drop Black Cherry Tomato Seeds - F1 Hybrid

Days to Maturity: 70 to 75

The Gum Drop Black Cherry Tomato, an F1 hybrid marvel, is renowned for its exquisite taste and striking appearance. As a standout member of the nightshade family, this variety brings a splash of dark beauty to the garden with its 1-inch, black-striped fruits. Bursting with an intense sweet flavor, these tomatoes elevate the culinary experience, making them a favorite among chefs and home gardeners alike. Recognized as a superfood, Black Cherry Tomatoes are packed with vitamins C and A, potassium, carotenoid lycopene, beta-carotene, phenolic acids, and flavonoids, offering a nutrient-rich addition to any meal.

This compact, semi-determinate plant may be small in stature, but it's mighty in production, requiring staking or caging to support its abundant yield. The self-pollinating Gum Drop Black Cherry Tomato thrives in full sun and moist, humus-rich soil, ensuring a bountiful harvest throughout the season without the need for pollen from other varieties.

Ideal for warm-season gardening, the Black Cherry Tomato seeds should be sown directly into warm soil after the last frost has passed. Alternatively, start them indoors 5 to 6 weeks before the last frost date and transplant them once the danger of frost is gone and night temperatures consistently stay above 55°F. To protect these tender plants from unexpected cold snaps, employ row covers and mulch to regulate soil temperature and moisture.

For those starting seeds indoors, Park Seed's Bio Dome Seed Starter Kit offers an optimal environment for your Black Cherry Tomato seeds, providing control over temperature, light, and soil mix for strong, healthy plants ready for transplanting.

Discover the joy of tomato gardening with the Seed to Spoon App, your digital companion in the quest for the perfect tomato. This app offers a wealth of knowledge specifically tailored to growing tomatoes, providing guidance on the best planting times, care tips, and harvesting techniques. From choosing the right tomato varieties to understanding the nuances of soil health and pest control, Seed to Spoon makes it easier than ever to cultivate luscious, homegrown tomatoes. Whether you're a first-time gardener or looking to refine your tomato-growing skills, this app is an invaluable tool for achieving a bountiful harvest.

    Super Rich Nuggets! 0 people found this helpful

    Rating

    I bought this plant by mistake and gave it to my neighbor rather than toss it. She promised to share the harvest with me. Lucky me! I munched on them for days, and toward the end, roasted them in good olive oil with salt, pepper, hot sauce & garlic. Then I enjoyed the little nuggets as snacks, in salads and with casseroles that needed a boost. I got a lot of mileage out of my “gift.” This year I’m giving seed packets as holiday gifts!
