Easy Gardening: How to Grow Determinate Tomato Varieties


If you’re looking for tomato varieties that can bring you a lot of fruits at the same time, you’ve found them. They are called determinate tomatoes and you’ll love them in your sauces and cans. But the thing that I love the most about determinate tomatoes is that they are perfect for growing indoors in pots or containers.       

Funny-Shaped Determinate Tomato Will Make Everyone Smile

Don’t Prune Your Determinate Tomatoes

Yes, that’s right. Indeterminate tomatoes need pruning. Determinate don’t need it. What’s more, if you prune determinate tomatoes, the chances are high that you’ll decrease their crop.

Depending upon the weight of the fruit on the plant, determinate tomatoes sometimes need staking and support. Some of the most delicious and easiest determinate tomatoes that I’ve grown and tasted are Chico III, Petomech, Sabala, Brooklyn H and Seijk.

Grow Them Hydroponically

Determinate tomatoes top off at a specific height and they often resemble a soldier unit. You know - same heights and haircuts. For this reason, determinate tomatoes are popular for indoor hydroponic growing. They are almost the same height, taste wonderful and look nice.

Pizza Wouldn’t be the Same without Tomatoes

I’ve come to the point where I think no one could neglect the vital importance of tomatoes - and that point is called making a pizza. Namely, tomatoes are an important ingredient of the Italian pizza, one of the world’s most famous dishes. There’s a debate on the matter of which tomato is the best for use when making pizza, but most people I’ve talked to agree that the delicious determinate San Marzano variety is absolutely perfect for the purpose.
