How to Grow Tangerine Tomatoes from Seed

Heirloom Tangerine tomato seeds are a warm weather crop best if started indoors about 6-8 weeks prior to final spring frost. Plant 2-3 Tangerine tomato seeds 1/4" deep per cell in fertile, humusy, and well-drained soil with a pH of 6.0-6.8. Beefsteak-style seeds germinate in 5-14 days, transplant best starts to 1 per pot or 18-36" apart in the garden. Colorful tomatoes such as Tangerine tomato are ideal for patio and container gardening.

Tangerine seeds produce an indeterminate tomato crop. Before sowing, know whether the seed is determinate or indeterminate, as each will exhibit different habits. Determinate varieties mature to a predetermined size, producing its fruit all at once with only a minor need for staking. Indeterminate varieties grow indefinitely through the season, producing non-stop fruit while requiring heavy support.

Heirloom Tangerine Tomatoes in the Vegetable Garden

Tangerine tomato seeds are the quintessential staple of summer gardening and arguably offers the most seed diversity among all seasonal fruits.

Available in every possible color, shape, and size, tomato is a high-heat and full sun favorite that thrives from container and patio gardening. Along with cucumber and summer squash, the tomato plant is one of the most productive, hardy, and heavy fruiting crops of the season.

Harvesting Tangerine Tomatoes

Smaller varieties such as the cherry are ready to harvest at about 80 days from sowing while larger varieties like the beefsteak may require a few extra weeks. Although vine-ripened fruit is always preferred, tomatoes can just as easily be harvested early and ripen indoors by being stored in a paper bag or box along with a banana for its ethylene gas. Ripest tomatoes may be pulled from the vine by hand, while more firm ones should be clipped with shears.

Tangerine is a bright orange beefsteak tomato that makes an excellent slicer. Its sweet, complex flavor is highly sought after in farmer's markets.

1932 Burpee Seed Co says about Tangerine Tomato...

"This new main-crop tomato is as outstanding in quality as it is in appearance. The fruits are large and heavy, measuring 4" in diameter. The are as deep as they are high and inclined to be somewhat angular. the thin skin is a beautiful rich orange-the color of a fully ripened tangerine. The flesh is mellow golden yellow of appetizing appearance. The flavor is delightful-rich and tasty, of a sub-acid piquancy that stimulates the appetite. The vines make abundant growth."

ScienceDaily - Feb. 6, 2007

"Research involving tomato sauce made from an heirloom tomato variety named the tangerine tomato has established that a specific chemical form of lycopene is more effective in increasing the levels of this much-heralded antioxidant in people's blood."
