Determinate Salad Tomato
“Determinate” refers to a type of growth habit in plants, particularly common in tomatoes. Determinate plants grow to a fixed mature size and stop growing when fruit sets on the top bud. All the tomatoes from the plant ripen around the same time over a period of 1 to 2 weeks, and then the plant typically dies. This characteristic makes determinate plants ideal for those who wish to harvest a large number of fruits at once, such as for canning or making sauce. They are often more compact than indeterminate plants, making them suitable for container gardening or small spaces. Determinate tomato plants are a popular choice for gardeners who need a predictable harvest time and have limited growing space.
