Beefsteak Tomato Seeds Heirloom lycopersicum Seeds Heirloom Beefsteak (Solanum lycopersicum) …the king of the slicing tomatoes! The Beefsteak tomato produces juicy fruit of up to 2 pounds each! An old time heirloom favorite, the Beefsteak Tomato is perfect for just about any dish, but it is particularly famous for being served raw in salads or sandwiches. Plant Beefsteak Tomato seeds in a sunny spot and enjoy a beautiful and bountiful harvest. The Beefsteak tomato is a large tomato that’s great for slicing or for sandwiches. The fruits are very meaty and have small seed cavities. Average: 80 days. Sowing: Start tomatoes indoors 6-8 weeks before the last frost of spring, sowing the seeds in a flat 1/4″ deep and 1″ apart. Keep the temperature at 70-75 degrees F until germination, as well as providing adequate light in a sunny window or under a grow light; keep the soil moist, but make sure drainage is adequate. When the second set of leaves emerges, transplant the seedlings into individual pots; bury the stems up to the lowest set of leaves to grow strongly rooted plants. A week before planting the seedlings outside, begin exposing them to the weather during the day to harden them; tomatoes cannot endure cold weather, and should not be transplanted outside until all threat of frost has passed. When the soil temperature reaches at least 70 degrees F, plant beefsteak heirloom tomato seeds in full sun and very rich soil; once more, bury the entire stem up to the lowest set of leaves.
