Description: 50 PINEAPPLE TOMATO SEEDS Pineapple tomatoes are a unique and delicious variety of tomato that is known for its sweet and tangy flavor. They are great for fresh eating, salads, and cooking. Here is a detailed planting and cultivation guide for growing pineapple tomatoes: Planting: 1. Choose a sunny location: Pineapple tomatoes need full sun to thrive, so choose a spot in your garden that receives at least 6-8 hours of sunlight per day. 2. Prepare the soil: Pineapple tomatoes prefer a rich, well-draining soil. Amend your soil with compost or well-rotted manure to improve its fertility and drainage. 3. Start seeds indoors: Pineapple tomatoes can be started from seed indoors 6-8 weeks before the last frost date in your area. Plant seeds in seed starting mix and keep them moist and warm until they germinate. 4. Transplant seedlings: Once seedlings have 2-3 sets of true leaves, they can be transplanted into the garden. Space plants 18-24 inches apart in rows that are 24-36 inches apart. Cultivation: 1. Watering: Pineapple tomatoes need consistent moisture to produce juicy and flavorful fruit. Water plants deeply and regularly, especially during hot and dry periods. 2. Fertilizing: Fertilize pineapple tomatoes every 3-4 weeks with a balanced fertilizer or a tomato-specific fertilizer. Follow the package instructions for application rates. 3. Mulching: Mulch around your tomato plants with straw, shredded leaves, or grass clippings to help retain moisture, suppress weeds, and regulate soil temperature. 4. Pruning and staking: Pineapple tomatoes are indeterminate varieties, meaning they will continue to grow and produce fruit throughout the season. Stake or cage plants to support them and prune off any suckers that form in the leaf axils to improve airflow and fruit production. 5. Pest and disease control: Keep an eye out for common tomato pests like aphids, hornworms, and whiteflies. Use organic pest control methods like insecticidal soap or neem oil to manage pest problems. Rotate tomato plantings to reduce the risk of soil-borne diseases like fusarium wilt and verticillium wilt. 6. Harvesting: Pineapple tomatoes are ready to harvest when they are fully ripe and have a yellow and red striped coloration. Gently twist or cut the fruits from the vine to avoid damaging the plant. By following these planting and cultivation guidelines, you can enjoy a bountiful harvest of delicious pineapple tomatoes from your garden. Happy gardening! As a seller, I understand that there may be some confusion when it comes to the terms and conditions of shipping and delivery. In order to provide clarity, I would like to address a few important points: 1. 3 business day shipping: We strive to ship out your order within three business days from the date of purchase. This means that weekends (Saturday and Sunday) are not considered business days, so please keep this in mind when estimating your delivery time. 2.
