You will receive a seed packet containing 0.5 grams, approximately 150 seeds, of Organic Brad's Atomic Grape Tomato (Solanum lycopersicum). This open-pollinated heirloom variety is renowned for its striking, tie-dye appearance and exceptional flavor.
Brad's Atomic Grape Tomato produces elongated, cherry-sized fruits that mature in clusters. The tomatoes exhibit a vibrant color palette, transitioning from lavender and purple stripes to olive-green, red, and brown/blue hues as they ripen. This unique coloration makes them a standout addition to any garden or culinary dish.
The fruits are not only visually appealing but also offer a sweet, complex flavor profile. They are crack-resistant and hold well on the vine or after harvest, making them suitable for fresh eating, salads, and market sales.
To cultivate Brad's Atomic Grape Tomato, start seeds indoors 6-10 weeks before the last expected frost. Sow seeds 1/8 inch deep in seed-starting mix, maintaining a soil temperature of 75-95°F for optimal germination. Transplant seedlings outdoors once the risk of frost has passed and nighttime temperatures remain above 50°F. Space plants approximately 24 inches apart and provide support through staking or caging, as this variety is indeterminate and will continue to grow and produce fruit throughout the season.
Incorporating Brad's Atomic Grape Tomato into your garden not only enhances its aesthetic appeal but also provides a bountiful harvest of flavorful, eye-catching tomatoes.
