Japanese Trifele Black Tomato Seeds
Russian origin specialty
The Japanese Trifele Black tomato, known for its unique appearance and rich flavor, originates from Russia, despite its name's Japanese association. This heirloom variety showcases a distinctive, pear-shaped fruit, with a deep, dark color and irregular ribbing.
Renowned for its complex flavor profile, the Japanese Trifele Black offers a delightful balance of sweetness and acidity, accompanied by a smoky undertone, making it a popular choice among tomato enthusiasts. Its dense flesh and juiciness contribute to its appeal for both fresh consumption and culinary uses like sauces and salads.
This tomato requires warm and sunny conditions to thrive. When planting from seed, provide a well-draining soil rich in organic matter. Starting indoors six to eight weeks before the last frost date gives the plant a head start. Transplant the seedlings when the soil has warmed up and the risk of frost has passed. Adequate spacing and support structures are recommended to prevent sprawling as the plant grows.
The aesthetic of the Japanese Trifele Black plant is equally appealing; its lush foliage and distinctive fruits make it an attractive addition to any garden. Regular watering, consistent care, and support for the vines are crucial for optimal growth and fruit development.

Planting & Care
Planting & Care
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.

I bought these seeds to go in bundles of packets of vegetable seeds that I will put in the Blessing Box at a church here in town about late January so people who need to can supplement the groceries they buy with a garden. I'm sure they will love them. If my budget stretches that far, I will get some for myself and let you know how I like them. I still have eight bundles worth of packets of seeds to purchase for them first, though.
Appreciate that you have this in bulk quantities. We use this as a rooting hormone and as a potting mix and soil supplement. Kelp meal is rich in minerals and micro-nutrients and contains growth hormones that support healthy root growth.

I grow flats of this for my pet pigs, because of the high nutritional content. They love it. I find them waiting at the growing location every afternoon waiting for their fave. I've grown beautiful flats of pea sprouts and alfalfa for them too, but they turn up their snouts and walk away.
