Growing Tips:

  • Planting: Start seeds indoors 6-8 weeks before the last expected frost. Transplant seedlings outdoors after all danger of frost has passed and the soil has warmed.
  • Soil: Plant in well-drained, fertile soil rich in organic matter. A pH level between 6.0 and 6.8 is ideal for tomato growth.
  • Sunlight: These tomatoes require full sun, at least 6-8 hours per day, to produce the best fruit.
  • Watering: Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Water at the base of the plant to avoid wetting the leaves, which can lead to fungal diseases.
  • Support: Use stakes, cages, or trellises to support the growing plants and keep the fruit off the ground, which helps prevent rot and disease.

Uses:

  • Culinary Delights: Aunt Ruby's German Green Tomatoes are perfect for fresh salads, where their color and flavor can truly shine. Slice them for sandwiches or use them to add a sweet and tangy twist to salsas and sauces. Their firm texture makes them excellent for grilling as well.
  • Unique Presentations: Their striking green color with a hint of yellow creates a visually stunning presentation on the plate, making them a favorite in gourmet dishes and farmer's market displays.

Medicinal Uses:

  • Nutritional Benefits: Like all tomatoes, Aunt Ruby's German Green Tomatoes are rich in vitamins A and C, potassium, and antioxidants, including lycopene, which supports heart health and has anti-inflammatory properties.
  • Traditional Uses: While tomatoes are primarily valued for their nutritional content, they have also been used in traditional medicine to support skin health, reduce inflammation, and improve digestion.

Harvesting Tips:

  • Ripeness Indicators: These tomatoes are ready to harvest when they feel slightly soft to the touch and exhibit a yellowish hue on their green skin. Unlike red tomatoes, their color change is subtle, so be sure to check for softness.
  • Careful Handling: To avoid bruising, gently twist or cut the fruit from the vine. Store them at room temperature to preserve their flavor and texture.
