Website Description:

Tomato Fourth of July Hybrid is a hybrid variety of tomato that produces high yields of flavorful, red, round fruits. The plants are indeterminate, meaning they will continue to produce fruit until the first frost. The fruits are large, about 4 inches in diameter, and have a sweet, tangy flavor. The plants are disease resistant and require minimal maintenance. They are ideal for home gardeners looking for a reliable, high-yielding variety of tomato.

Growing Instructions:

1. Start the seeds indoors 6-8 weeks before the last frost date in your area. Plant the seeds in a seed starting mix in individual pots or trays.

2. Keep the soil moist but not soggy. Place the trays in a warm, sunny location and cover with plastic to maintain humidity.

3. When the seedlings are about 3 inches tall, transplant them to larger containers.

4. When the danger of frost has passed, transplant the seedlings into the garden. Space the plants 3-4 feet apart in rows that are 4-5 feet apart.

5. Water the plants deeply and regularly.

6. When the plants are about 6 inches tall, pinch off the top two leaves to encourage branching.

7. When the plants are about 12 inches tall, prune off any side shoots that appear.

8. Fertilize the plants with a balanced fertilizer every two weeks.

9. When the fruits are about the size of a golf ball, place a tomato cage around each plant to support the branches.

10. Harvest the fruits when they are bright red and slightly soft to the touch.
