Default Heatmaster Tomato

Last summer I replaced about twenty open pollinated tomato plants which died in the 110 degree F heat with Heatmaster hybrid tomatoes. I have never tried the variety and knew nothing about the cultivar, but quickly learned they love the heat and the bright sunlight. They did not like even partial shade. They were one of the most productive, great tasting tomatoes I've ever grown.


I purchased some Heatmaster seed and germinated my own seedlings this year. I had a hard time deciding if I wanted to germinate and plant the seedlings along with my other varieties in early spring or wait and germinate and plant the seedling after the summer heat arrives. I germinated and planted them early. I think I did the right thing because they are about thirty six inches tall in late April and loaded with small tomatoes and blossoms. Now I will wait to see if growing them in cooler weather works as well as growing in hot weather for taste.
