Black Krim Russian Heritage Heirloom Meaty Beefsteak Tomato Seeds. Certified French Organic Grower

Bought seeds as my previous supply ran outAnd these are even better !! Prolific crop this year , and beautiful sweet flavour !!!

Bought these first 4 years ago as a first time gardener. Grew them in huge pots in a standard London back garden, both in a greenhouse and outside. I moved the pots around even a bit on too hot days. Followed basic advice from RHS and some YouTube gardeners. As long as they're in a sunny spot the rest is easy. Great harvest first time around. They're resilient as they come from eastern Europe/Eurasia where the climate is less friendly so the seeds evolved to survive "bad" weather.

Still waiting for plants to get bigger then I can replant in bigger pots,not grown these before so looking forward to trying them,hoping for a good crop...in greenhouse at the moment not many seeds in packet so may try just one plant out in the garden.

Germination was a bit slow and patchy but I have had this tomatoe many in the past and even though it has problems I can say it is my favorite. Do not drop or you will have a puddle and the main reason not found in supermarkets.. yes thin skinned and they split easily and damage easily.. The splits do get a bit mouldy and should only be grow indoors. The favour is like no other, in fact if you are looking for a stardard tomatoe look elsewhere. A plate of tomatoes sliced salted and little mayo or lemmon juice is a meal in its self. very juicy and the plate will be awash at the end. Which i confess I drink. This year I did have a problem really getting a good crop but that growing. Some good, some not so good and then some outstanding.

not one of the seeds grew

Good germination

Thin skinned. Easily rot outdoors. Didnt germinate easily either. Bit meh imho.

Superb tomato. Beefsteak tomato with a good flavour and very fleshy tomato
