Determinate tomatoes ⟐ Indeterminate tomatoes | 📚 Tomato Grow Guide |
Every tomato variety is either determinate or indeterminate. Determinate tomato plants grow to a certain size (about 1.2-1.5 m, or 4-5 ft) and then stop growing. All of their fruit becomes ripe in a short time window, usually about 2 weeks, and then the plants begin to die, producing no additional fruit. Indeterminate tomato plants, by contrast, grow from the time you plant them until they are killed by frost, and can reach heights of 2-3 m (6-10 ft) if they are supported. They produce and ripen new fruit steadily until frost.
Good companion plants: Basil, Borage, Onion, Parsley, Pepper
