Grow Method | Soil |
Notes | Indeterminate; Pink; mid-season (78 days) The tall, indeterminate, potato-leaf plant produces an abundant crop of 4-inch, deep-pink, lightly-fluted, beefsteak fruits that have the kind of robust, smack-you-on-the-palate tomato flavors and firm, juicy flesh that invites tomato feasting and seed-saving. Its flavors, similar to the enviable qualities of its namesake Julia, are bold, strait-forward, complex and contain more than enough acidity and earthy nuances to balance its luscious fruitiness. A suitable variety to include as a part of your own legacy of seed sharing - the loving gift of healthy food for generations to come. |

Plants were reaching the top of the floating row cover and starting to topple over without support. Winds have been picking up, so hesitant tolet them go completely uncovered. Pruned to single stem and put on string. Will try to keep row cover fabric on the outside (I put hooks on the inner part of the trellis so hopefully can keep them from the edges where they would get battered). Fingers crossed. |
