Choose West Coast Seeds Early Girl Tomato Seeds for a fast and early crop of delicious medium-sized red tomatoes. Perfect for coastal growers, this early maturing variety keeps bearing fruit heavily throughout the summer on manageable, disease-resistant vines. Producing baskets of tasty 110-170g (4-6 oz) tomatoes, Early Girl is resistant to Fusarium wilt races 1 and 2. By maturing early, it helps beat Late Blight, ensuring a productive harvest before the disease strikes mid to late summer.

Key Features:

  • Early Maturing: Produces medium-sized red fruits quickly.
  • Prolific Yield: Continuous fruit production throughout the summer.
  • Disease Resistant: Resistant to Fusarium wilt races 1 and 2.
  • Ideal for Coastal Growers: Matures early to avoid Late Blight.
  • Hybrid Seeds: Ensures uniform and vigorous growth.

Growing Information:

  • Season: Warm season crop.
  • Exposure: Full sun for optimal growth.
  • Timing: Start indoors in early spring with bottom heat. Transplant outdoors once nighttime temperatures are consistently above 7°C (45°F).
  • Germination: Optimal soil temperature is 25-35°C (68-95°F). Seeds sprout in 7-14 days.
  • Sowing Instructions: Sow seeds 5mm-1cm (¼-½”) deep. Keep seedlings under bright light to prevent legginess.

Care Tips:

  • Soil: Prefers fertile, well-drained soil rich in organic matter. Mix finished compost and manure into the soil, and add 1 cup of balanced organic fertilizer beneath each transplant.
  • Support: Vine varieties require support such as a wire or trellis. Bush types benefit from tomato cages.
  • Watering: Regular watering is vital, but avoid letting the plants sit in water. Stop watering around the end of July to encourage fruit ripening.
  • Transplanting: Space indeterminate transplants 50-75cm (20-30") apart in rows 1m (3') apart.

Harvesting:

  • Timing: Harvest when the fruit is the desired color. Green tomatoes can ripen indoors at cool temperatures if they are blemish-free.
  • Method: Pick fruits regularly to encourage continued production.

Pest & Disease Management:

  • Blossom End Rot: Prevent by ensuring even watering and adding calcium to the soil.
  • Late Blight: Use drip tape for watering and avoid splashing the leaves. Apply Bordo Copper Spray regularly in late summer.
  • Flea Beetles: Protect young plants with Floating Row Cover.

Companion Planting:

  • Best Companions: Asparagus, basil, beans, borage, carrots, celery, chives, collards, cucumber, garlic, lettuce, marigold, mint, nasturtium, onion, parsley, and peppers.
  • Avoid: Brassicas, dill, corn, and potatoes to prevent pest and disease spread.
