Tomato Pole Green Zebra Organic Seeds
Lycopersicon lycopersicum (hybrid)
Item #3143
75 days from transplanting. Indeterminate.
A breeder's work of art! (Read the story
inside the packet.) When we asked
tomato growers which varieties to add,
Green Zebra kept coming up because of
its excellent flavor and unique color-rich,
golden green with forest green stripes.
Very smooth skin essentially free of
cracks. Tennis ball?sized at about 3" and
3oz. When a green tomato ripens, it will
soften and develop a slight amber blush.
Provide support for vines that reach 6' or
more.
This packet yields approximately 24 plants when started indoors.

When to sow outside: Recommended for mild climates only: 1 to 2 weeks before average last frost and when soil temperature is at least 60°F.
When to start inside: RECOMMENDED. 6 to 8 weeks before average last frost. Provide adequate light to produce sturdy plants.
Harvesting: Harvest tomatoes when fully colored and firm. About 1 month before the average first fall frost, clip all blossoms and any undersized fruit off the plant. This will steer all the plant's remaining energy into ripening what's left. If you have a lot of unripe tomatoes near the end of the season and a frost is approaching, pick them and store them indoors in a single layer away from direct sunlight to ripen.
