Description

Info: Glacier tomato originates from Sweden and translates as "glacier". It ripens particularly early, is cold-tolerant and insensitive to many tomato diseases, making it a good choice for outdoor cultivation in climatically less favored regions. The red, round fruits weighing 50 to 80 grams ripen on the bushy growing plants. These have a full-bodied flavor with a balanced sweetness-acidity ratio. They are suitable both as a salad tomato and for cooking.

Growing tips

Care: Glacier tomatoes you can grow indoors, greenhouse and also outdoors. The optimal germination temperature is between 20 and 25°C and germination occurs after 8 - 14 days. You can speed up germination by presoaking the seeds overnight in a damp cloth. You should plant out the pre-pulled plantlets only after the last frost.
