Homestead 24 Tomato

This is a medium to large sized red fruit on an semi-determinate plant. Created by the University of Florida extension this is an extremely disease resistant plant. It also will set fruit better than most tomatoes when night time temperatures are high (a common reason for most tomatoes to fizzle out in mid spring). This is a top pick for hot humid areas.

Packet: 40-83 seeds

Good to start from seed in these months:

North Florida: January-February, July-August
