Tomato Seeds, Great White
Description
(Solanum lycopersicum). Large, 1-pound giant with creamy white fruit. This tomato is superbly wonderful. The flesh is so good and deliciously fruity, it reminds one of a mixture of fresh-cut pineapple, melon and guava. One of our favorite fresh-eating tomatoes! Fruit is smoother than most large beefsteak types, and yields can be very high. Introduced by Gleckler’s Seedsmen.

Growing Tips, Tricks and FAQs
Growing Tips
Great White is an heirloom tomato that thrives in full sun and fertile, well-draining soil. Use stakes or cages to help keep the heavy fruit off the ground. During germination, a heat mat can help warm up the soil and speed up the process.
When to Grow
Plant Great White tomatoes outdoors after the last frost date in your region. Start seeds indoors 6-10 weeks before the final expected frost. For specific planting times, consult your local area’s frost dates.
How to Sow and Plant
Sow seeds 1/8 inch deep in a seed-starting mix. Maintain a temperature of 70-80 F for germination. Transplant seedlings outdoors when they have at least two sets of true leaves and temperatures are consistently above 60 F. Space plants 24 inches apart in full sun with soil enriched with compost or organic matter.
How to Grow
Keep the soil evenly moist to prevent cracking and blossom-end rot. Mulching around the plants helps retain moisture and reduce weeds. Fertilize with a balanced tomato fertilizer every 2-3 weeks. Provide sturdy cages or stakes to support the vigorous vines and improve air circulation by pruning lower leaves and suckers.
How to Save
- Most tomatoes are self-pollinating and don't frequently cross; in a garden setting, separating by 25 feet should prevent 99% of cross-pollination. Or you can bag and hand pollinate for 100% purity.
- On a small scale, seeds may be scooped from the fruits and dried on a paper towel.
- For larger quantities or cleaner seeds, fermentation for a few days is recommended.
- Once dry, tomato seed can be stored in a cool, dry, dark place; good seed retains viability for 5 years or more.
FAQ
Do Great White tomatoes tolerate heat?
Yes, they grow well in warm climates but benefit from consistent watering and mulching to prevent heat stress and maintain fruit quality.
Are Great White tomatoes resistant to diseases?
While not inherently disease-resistant, proper spacing, pruning, and watering practices can help prevent common issues.
What are the best uses for Great White tomatoes?
They are excellent for fresh eating, salads, and sandwiches because of their mild flavor and juicy texture.
