Alpha Pink Tomato
Solanum lycopersicum
Price: $2.95
SKU: 340278169 days, indeterminate - The plants are prolific and start producing very early in the season. The fruit are beautiful, smooth-skinned, weigh up to fourteen ounces, are flattened-globe to oblate in shape, pink in color, and mild in flavor. When our rainy season arrived in the fall we did notice some cracking but overall, it performed very well and provided a bountiful harvest.
'Alpha Pink' was S. M. Isbell Seed Company's answer to an early, pink fruited tomato variety for both home and market. They released it in 1907.

Sow seeds indoors (do not direct sow into the garden), using sterile seed starting mix, 6 to 8 weeks before your last expected frost date. Plant 1/4" deep, water lightly but keep moist until emergence.
Full light and cooler temps (60° to 70°) will help to prevent the seedlings from becoming too leggy. If plants become rootbound before you can safely set them into the ground, transplant them into larger pots.
Harden off plants before planting outside. Young plants are very susceptible to frost and sunburn damage. Avoid too much nitrogen. Water evenly but not in excess.
