Polaris Beefsteak Tomato

Polaris produces beautiful, round to oblate, beefsteak tomatoes around 150-350grams each. Dark-purple fruits with some green coloring on the shoulders. Red-purple flesh with a complex sweet tomato flavor. Meaty fruits with few seeds. Potato leaf. Indeterminate. Cross between ‘Ludmilla Pink Heart’ and ‘Captain Lucky’. This variety is bred by Karen Olivier (Northern Gardener) of Canada in the project “True North”. The other varieties in the project are Midnight Sun, Taiga, Tundra, and True Colors. Around 75D. 10seeds/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.
