  • Plant Super Sioux Tomatoes in a sunny location, receiving a minimum of 6-8 hours of direct sunlight daily.
  • They prefer well-drained, loamy soil with a pH level between 6.0 and 6.8.
  • Start seeds indoors 6-8 weeks before the last expected frost date in your area.
  • Transplant seedlings into the garden after all danger of frost has passed.
  • Provide support for the tomato plants, such as stakes, cages, or trellises to keep the vines off the ground and prevent disease.
  • Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Aim to water at the base of the plants to avoid wetting the foliage.
  • Water early in the day to allow leaves to dry before evening.
  • Use a balanced, slow-release fertilizer or compost at planting time.
  • You can feed the plants with additional fertilizer during the growing season.
  • Prune away the lower leaves of the plant to enhance air circulation and reduce the risk of disease.
  • Some gardeners choose to prune side shoots (suckers) for better fruit production.
  • Regularly inspect for common tomato pests such as aphids, hornworms, and whiteflies.
  • Watch for fungal diseases like early blight and late blight. Use organic or chemical treatments as needed.
  • Super Sioux Tomatoes are typically ready for harvest 70-85 days after transplanting.
  • Harvest when the fruits are fully ripe, with a rich red color and a slightly soft feel.
  • Store harvested tomatoes at room temperature until fully ripe, then refrigerate to prolong freshness.
  • Seed count: 10
