Pork Chop Tomato Seeds ? Yellow Heirloom, Sweet 8oz Fruit, Indeterminate Plant Description:** Pork Chop is a stunning yellow heirloom tomato developed by Brad Gates of Wild Boar Farms in California. Known for its vibrant color and exceptional flavor, this variety was bred to combine visual appeal with gourmet taste, making it a favorite among market growers and home gardeners alike. Maturing in approximately 75 to 80 days, Pork Chop is considered mid-season. The fruit is golden yellow with faint green stripes when ripe, often deepening to a rich amber tone. Each tomato measures about 3 to 4 inches across and weighs around 6 to 8 ounces. It is not a cherry tomato. Flavor is sweet and fruity with low acidity, offering a tropical note that makes it ideal for fresh eating. The flesh is juicy yet firm, perfect for slicing into salads or pairing with herbs and cheeses. While not typically used for canning, it excels in fresh dishes and gourmet presentations. The plant is indeterminate, producing fruit steadily throughout the season. It grows to a height of 5 to 6 feet and benefits from staking or trellising to support its generous yields. **Summary:** Heirloom: Yes History: Bred by Brad Gates, Wild Boar Farms, California Days to Harvest: 75?80 days (mid-season) Fruit Color: Golden yellow with faint green stripes Fruit Size: 3?4 inches (not a cherry tomato) Fruit Weight: 6?8 ounces Flavor: Sweet, fruity, low acid Uses: Fresh eating, salad, gourmet plating Plant Style: Indeterminate Plant Size: 5?6 ft tall **How to Start from Seed:** 1. **Start seeds indoors 6-8 weeks before the last expected frost.** Sow seeds OE inch deep in seed starting mix. 2. **Maintain a temperature of 70-75F** for optimal germination.
