The way tomato varieties grow can be divided into three groups: "determinate", "indeterminate", or "semi-determinate". Determinate are short and bushy (they are also known as bush varieties). They are about three feet (90 cm) tall and usually don't require support. Determinates provide lots of ripe tomatoes at once. They do not require 'stopping'. None of the varieties we sell is determinate. Indeterminates (also known as cordon varieties) provide a continuous harvest from about mid-June (cherries) or early July (others) until first frost. This type produces side-shoots, which must be removed, and needs to be 'stopped' (have the growing point pinched out) in the first week of September for cherry tomatoes or early August for other varieties. In a commercial greenhouse, each tomato plant produces over 30 trusses and grows for up to 50 weeks (including propagation). The stems grow up to 15m long. Semi-determinates Semi-determinates are in between and do not need side-shooting or stopping. |
