J. Walsh
80 days, indeterminate - 'J. Walsh' produces large amounts of fruit over a long period of time. The fruit weigh one to three ounces, are elongated, almost egg-shaped, a bright, light-yellow color, and are very tasty. Like many yellow-fruited varieties, the sugar content is high making them sweet and tasting low acid. Along with being used as an addition to tossed salads or simply popping in your mouth as a snacking tomato, a fun and tasty idea is to use them as the "egg" in "Vegan Deviled Eggs."June Walsh of Tauranga sent this New Zealand heirloom to the Koanga Institute who released it to the public. Our original seed stock was sent to us in 2008 by J. Arana, a gardening friend in New Zealand. Very rare here in the United States.

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.

Liked this little tomato which was very prolific with a very mild flavor that was best when fully ripe. Nice lemon color that the birds liked to.
