Features and cultivation

The Yellow Pearshaped tomato, with its varied shapes and colors, will add a touch of curiosity to your vegetable garden. Its firm, juicy and sweet flesh makes it a perfect choice for cocktails, kebabs or even preserves.

How to sow?

For best results, sow your seeds from February to April on a warm bed or in pots indoors. Make sure the soil is well prepared and maintain a constant temperature of at least 20°C for successful germination. Once germinated, transplant the plants into rich, well-drained soil at 70 cm between rows and 50 cm on the row, exposed to the sun.

Managing tomato plants: is it necessary to remove suckers?

Pruning tomatoes to remove suckers is a common practice to increase fruit size and facilitate harvesting. However, it requires time and good judgement. An alternative is not to prune at all, leaving the plant to develop naturally. A third option is two-strand pruning, offering a compromise between size and yield.

Harvesting and disease prevention

Harvest your tomatoes 4 to 5 months after sowing for optimum freshness. Protect your plants against diseases such as mildew and blossom end necrosis. Use preventive treatments and maintain regular watering to avoid humidity-related problems.

Growing yellow pear tomatoes in your vegetable garden is a rewarding experience that will reward your efforts with delicious flavors all season long.
