Carls Emslandtraube

Season Overview

Description

Carls Emslandtraube forms beautiful large panicles with 12-20 fruits. The yield is very high, the whole plant is full of these tasty tomatoes with a sweet and spicy flavor. The variety is also extremely vigorous (approx. 2m). A slightly sheltered location is an advantage, as the fruits burst easily when it rains. Otherwise, the variety is robust and suitable for outdoor cultivation. Medium-early (70 days). (tomato whisperer)

Growing tips

Tomatoes require a lot of light, warmth, water and nutrients. They are grown from seed on the windowsill from March. The seedlings should be planted deep, up to the first leaf base, so that the root system is enlarged by additional lateral roots. Unlike most other crops, tomatoes should always be planted in the same place. The plants also need wooden/corrugated wire rods or a trellis to which you regularly tie them. This is the only way they can support the weight of the fruit. You should regularly break out the side shoots that form in the leaf axils. This is because they do not bear fruit and take away the plant's energy to concentrate on producing lots of fruit. Under-sowing with low-growing plants is a good option.
