Description

These Manitoba Tomato seeds produce the Manitoba Tomato, a determinate variety designed for early, high-yield harvests. This brand is suitable for gardeners seeking reliable production in cooler climates or short growing seasons. Its compact growth habit makes it ideal for container gardening and small garden spaces, offering an efficient solution for growers with limited space or those practicing urban gardening.

Dimensions & Compatibility

The plants typically reach a medium size, about 24 inches in height, and require supports such as tomato cages due to their determinate growth type. Spacing recommendations include 24 inches between plants and 36-48 inches between rows, compatible with standard garden beds and containers measuring at least 12 inches deep for optimal root development.

Features

  • Harvest-ready in approximately 55 days from transplanting
  • Suitable for full sun exposure
  • High-yield production with medium-sized tomatoes
  • Ideal for cooler climates with shorter growing seasons
  • Supports determinate growth, no pruning required
  • Plant density: approximately 1 plant per 2 square feet
  • Optimal germination temperature: 75°F-95°F
  • pH requirement: soil pH 6.0-6.5

Use Cases & Ideal Growers

The Manitoba Tomato seeds are best suited for gardeners on a budget seeking quick, reliable harvests of juicy tomatoes within 55 days. They are ideal for those in cooler or unpredictable climates, small-space growers, container gardeners, and urban farmers. This variety is also suitable for home cooks and hobbyist gardeners aiming to produce fresh tomatoes for salads, sandwiches, and cooking without extensive garden space or investment.

Care & Growing Instructions

Seeds should be sown 0.25 inches deep in well-draining soil with a pH of 6.0-6.5. Maintain soil temperatures between 75°F and 95°F for optimal germination, which typically occurs within 7-14 days. The plants require full sun and consistent watering. Trellising or tomato cages support determinate growth and prevent fruit rot. Fertilize regularly with a balanced fertilizer during the growing season. The Manitoba Tomato is frost-sensitive and should be transplanted outdoors after the danger of frost has passed. Proper care ensures high yields of ripe, juicy tomatoes within 55 days of transplanting, making Manitoba Tomato seeds an excellent choice for budget-conscious gardeners in cooler climates.

    OUR PLEDGE TO YOU

    Agriculture and seeds provide the basis upon which our lives depend. We must protect this foundation as a safe and genetically stable source for future generations.

    For the benefit of all farmers, gardeners and consumers who want an alternative. We pledge to you that we do not knowingly buy or sell genetically engineered seeds or plants.  The mechanical transfer of genetic material outside of natural reproductive methods and between genera, families or kingdoms, poses great biological risks as well as economic, political, and cultural threats.

    We wish to support agricultural progress that leads to healthier soils, genetically diverse agricultural ecosystems and ultimately healthy people and communities.

    We do not buy - OR - grow any seed from large corporations that make Genetically Engineered seeds.  We don't touch that stuff and we never will.

    The seeds we offer aren't like varieties you'd typically find at a garden center. 

    Every variety we offer is 100% OP (open-pollinated).  Open-pollination means that you can safely save the seed after harvest and preserve a collection of heirloom seed for many generations to come.

    To make it perfectly clear ... Our seeds do not contain any exogenously inserted embryogenesis deactivator genes caused by human intervention.
