Moskvich tomatoes are a cold-tolerant heirloom variety renowned for their rich, deep red fruits and exceptional flavor. This determinate variety produces medium-sized, round tomatoes that mature early, making it an excellent choice for regions with shorter growing seasons. Moskvich tomatoes have a balanced, sweet yet tangy flavor with a meaty texture, perfect for slicing, fresh eating, and making sauces.
Key Features:
- Type: Determinate, Heirloom
- Color: Deep red
- Fruit Size: Medium (4-6 ounces)
- Flavor: Rich, sweet, and tangy with a full-bodied taste
- Maturity: 60-65 days to harvest

Why Choose Moskvich Tomatoes?
- Early-maturing variety for a quicker harvest
- Thrives in colder climates where other varieties may struggle
- Rich, flavorful fruits perfect for both fresh eating and cooking

Planting Instructions:
- Seed Starting: Start indoors 6-8 weeks before the last frost date. Sow seeds ¼ inch deep in seed-starting mix and maintain soil moisture.
- Transplanting: Transplant seedlings outdoors after the danger of frost has passed. Space plants 18-24 inches apart.
- Sunlight: Requires full sun, at least 6-8 hours daily.
- Watering: Keep soil consistently moist but avoid overwatering. Water at the base of the plant to keep leaves dry.
- Support: While determinate, Moskvich plants may benefit from light staking or cages for added support.
- Harvesting: Pick tomatoes when they are fully red and slightly firm but with a slight give when pressed.
Moskvich tomatoes are the perfect choice for gardeners in cooler climates who want reliable, early harvests of delicious, flavorful tomatoes. Add this resilient and tasty variety to your garden for a bountiful early-season crop!
