Why choose San Marzano tomato seeds?

Planting tomato seeds can be a joyful gardening experience, and this tomato is no exception:

• Superior taste: San Marzano tomatoes offer a full, sweet flavor with a hint of umami, perfect for sauces and soups.
• Thick flesh: With fewer seeds and a less watery texture than many other varieties, these tomatoes make for a richer sauce.
• Elongated shape: These tomatoes are easy to peel and process thanks to their distinctive elongated shape.

Tips for growing San Marzano tomatoes

To get the most out of your tomato seeds, keep the following in mind:

1. Preparation: Start pre-seeding 6-8 weeks before the last frost. Use well-drained soil and sow the seeds about 0.5 cm deep.
2. Care: Choose a sunny location and water regularly. Protect the young plants from possible night frosts.
3. Harvesting: Pick tomatoes as soon as they turn a deep red color, usually 80-90 days after transplanting.

When the tomato seeds begin to germinate, it’s beneficial to use a grow light, as young plants need plenty of light to grow healthy and strong. During this early stage, it’s ideal to have the light on for 12 to 16 hours each day.
