Black Magic Beefsteak Tomato

Black Magic produces flat-round, slightly ribbed beefsteak tomatoes of around 250-500 grams each. Dark red-purple fruits with green necks. Red-purple flesh with an excellent, complex tomato flavor. From an accidental cross between ‘Luck Cross’ and an unknown variety developed by Millard Murdock, North Carolina. Siblings to ‘Black Magic’ are ‘Muddy Mamba’ and ‘Black Mamba’. Around 75-80D. Indeterminate. 5seeds/pack

Indeterminate tomato varieties will keep on growing the whole summer until the autumn frost. They will keep flowering and setting fruit. The sucker doesn't have to be pruned, but if not the plant will grow extremely large. 1-3 suckers could be spared along the main stem and the rest could be pruned. If not pruned at all the plant might tend to put energy into growing large instead of producing tomatoes on the main stem and the selected suckers. All indeterminate varieties could be staked or supported to avoid fruits laying on the ground.
