SKU: 3402092180 days, indeterminate - Italian variety from the early 1800s. Very unique tomato, deeply ribbed shape with bright red fruits. The word costoluto is italian for ribbed. 6-8oz fruits. Delicious slightly tart flavor. Performs exceptionally well in hot weather, but will continue to produce even once the weather turns cooler. This has been a family favorite of ours in Texas for many years.

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.
