Tomato - Beefmaster
The meaty tomatoes are big enough to overlap burgers and sanwiches. Soak to depth of 6 to 10 inches when watering. In warm winter/hot summer areas, tomatoes can be planted in early fall for winter harvest. Tomatoes should be planted outside after the last average frost date. Beefmasters are nearly seedless and they have the fine beefsteak flavor. They need at least 6 hours of direct sunlight a day. Some may weigh up to 2 pounds. They shine as a slicer and the good-flavored fruit is tolerant of cracking and peeling. The Tomato Beefmaster, 'Lycopersicon lycopersicum', is one of the largest beefsteak types. Tomatoes prefer well drained soil that is high in organic matter. Tomatoes need at least 1 inch of water a week. Beefmaster was bred for resistance to verticillium and fusarium wilt and nematodes. ... additional info
