Planting Instructions for Mule Team Tomato Seeds

Start Heirloom / Open Pollinated Mule Team Tomato seeds indoors 6-8 weeks before last frost date. Plant the Tomato seeds ¼” deep in sterile seed starting mix. Germination occurs in 6-14 days in soil 70-90°F. Once true leaves develop, separate Heirloom / Open Pollinated Mule Team Tomato plants into 3-4″ pots, placing in full light & cooler temps (60-70°F). Set out hardened off Tomato transplants, in full sun, once soil has warmed, 18-30″ apart, in rows 3-4′ apart. Plant tall, spindly Tomato seedlings deeper, the stems will sprout roots and support and strengthen the plant. To help prevent blossom end rot, put 1 Tbs of lime, ground oyster shells, or crushed eggshells at the bottom of your planting hole. The calcium will help build strong cell walls once your heirloom tomatoes plants start producing fruit. For strong tomato plants, add 1 Tbs of aged compost and 1 Tbs of bone meal to the bottom of the hole as well.

    Planted this tomato in zone 7b with high hopes after reading the description. Overall the flavor was good, but several of the plants only produced cherry size tomatoes, and the rest were smaller than normal. Also noticed that they had very thin skin and cracked easily, even with even watering, more so than any other tomato varieties. Good flavor but disappointing size and appearance.
