How early is Black from Tula?

Fert1 · June 2, 2006

I oopsed. This was supped to be in the BFT Thread, but I started a new thread by mistake. Still getting used to the forum here.

I was wondering how early BFT was, because my BFT was the first plant I had to set fruit this year, (with the exception of my SunGold cherry). I didn't think it was particulary early, but it appears as if it may at least have a couple of early fruit. I'm not complaining. I'm eager to try it to see how it compares to other blacks I've tried.

Newbie tomato grower but from what I've read, Black Krim and Black from Tula are more like 75-80 days compared to most of the big flavorful tomatoes people count on like Brandywines that are 85-95 days. I don't know if I'd call 75 days "early".

Of course your mileage may vary. See store for details.

My website lists it as a mid season (69-80 days)
