Unknown Variety 2023 Paste-Type Tomato

Unknown Variety 2023 – “Long Pink Pear” is a paste-type tomato, containing less water than “regular” tomatoes, perfect for cocking and sauces, etc. Produces elongated, pear-shaped fruits with a small nipple, around 60-80 grams each. Pale-pink fruits with some pale-green coloring on the necks. Meaty flesh with a sweet tomato flavor. The seeds of this variety were given to me as ‘Sinister Minister’, and clearly it is not. The unknown variety was a great variety though, so we decided to keep it! 75-80D. Indeterminate. 10seeds/pack

Paste-type tomatoes contain less water than "normal" tomatoes and are perfect for tomato sauce, puree, cooking, etc. The fruits are very firm and meaty and not so watery if cooked. 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.
