Beefsteak Tomatoes - Long Season Favorite
Beefsteak tomatoes are a favorite among gardeners for their impressive size, vibrant red color, and unmatched flavor. Known as one of the best tomatoes for sandwiches, their juicy flesh and meaty texture make them ideal for slicing and adding to your favorite meals. These large tomatoes are a popular choice in home gardens, prized for their high yields and versatility in the kitchen.
Beefsteak tomatoes thrive in full sun with nutrient-rich, well-draining soil. As indeterminate plants, they continue to produce fruit throughout the growing season, rewarding gardeners with abundant harvests. Proper support, such as staking or caging, is essential to handle their heavy fruit. With a little care, even beginner gardeners can achieve success, especially when following key tomato growing tips.
Whether you’re looking to plant heirloom varieties or prefer organic tomato seeds, beefsteak tomatoes offer a reliable and delicious addition to your garden. Their ability to grow as either determinate or indeterminate types ensures options for gardeners with limited space or those seeking an extended harvest period. Pair them with other sun-loving vegetable plants for a thriving garden filled with fresh, flavorful produce. Start growing beefsteak tomatoes today and enjoy their rich taste in sandwiches, salads, or homemade sauces!
Tomato - Beefsteak - Lycopersicon lycopersicum
Tender Annual Indeterminate. The vigorous vines of this popular beefsteak produce flat, meaty, juicy, red, medium-size fruit ranging from 5-10 ounces. This great slicing or canning tomato has rough, ribbed skin with a richly flavored flesh.
Did You Know? Research shows that protective effects of tomatoes against prostate cancer and cardiovascular disease result from the synergy of lycopene with other phytonutrients naturally present in whole tomatoes. Lycopene is highest in organically grown tomatoes.
Soil & Water: Tomatoes love fertile soil rich in organic matter. Add plenty of compost prior to planting. Soil pH is preferred between 5.5-7.0. Soak the soil 4"-6" deep at 7-day intervals.
Planting & Growing: Sow seeds in flats 6-8 weeks before the last frost and thin to 2" apart after the first true leaves appear. Before transplanting after the last frost, harden off the plants by placing them outdoors for a few hours to start, increasing the amount of time each day until they are accustomed to a full day of sunlight.
Harvesting & Storage: Harvest when individual fruits give slightly under finger pressure; the shoulders may not have changed color yet.
