Growing Tips, Tricks and FAQs

Growing Tips

Pineapple Tomato is an heirloom tomato that thrives in full sun with rich, well-draining soil. Water consistently for the best harvests. Use a heat mat if necessary to warm up the soil and speed up germination. 

When to Grow

Start seeds indoors 6-10 weeks before the last frost in your area. Transplant outdoors once all frost danger has passed and the temperature doesn’t drop below 60 F. Check your local region’s frost dates for a specific planting time.

How to Sow and Plant

Sow seeds about 1/8 inch deep in seed-starting mix indoors, keeping a soil temperature of 70-80 F. Harden off seedlings before transplanting outdoors. Space plants 24 inches apart, with rows 3-4 feet apart. Use strong stakes or cages to support these large, productive plants.

How to Grow

Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Fertilize every 2-3 weeks with a balanced or tomato-specific fertilizer. Remove suckers to improve airflow and focus plant energy on fruit production.

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.
