Yellow pear tomato seeds enable you to grow a specific variety of tomato characterized by its elongated pear shape and bright yellow color. Yellow pear tomatoes are prized for their sweet, fruity flavor, making them ideal for eating fresh, in salads or for canning. To grow yellow pear tomatoes successfully, you can start by sowing the seeds indoors before the last expected frost, in cups or pots filled with light, fertile potting soil. Once the plants have developed a few true leaves and any risk of frost has passed, they can be transplanted to the garden or to larger containers.
Yellow pear tomatoes prefer well-drained soil rich in organic matter, as well as sunny exposure to develop properly. They need regular watering to keep the soil evenly moist, especially during periods of active growth and warm weather. It's important to support tomato plants as they grow, using stakes or cages to prevent fruit dragging on the ground and rotting. Yellow pear tomatoes can be harvested once they have reached full maturity and come off easily. Use a sharp knife to cut them carefully.

Good to know:
Sowing: February / April
Harvest: June / SeptemberThe Yellow Pearshaped tomato, with its varied colors and shapes, will make your kitchen garden unique. Its fragrance and flavor will make you rediscover the pleasure of authentic taste.
It's a vigorous, productive mid-season variety that doesn't need pruning. Its clusters of 10 to 15 g fruits offer firm, juicy, sweet and slightly acid flesh, ideal for cocktails, kebabs or candied.
To sow Yellow Pearshaped tomatoes, start from February to April on a warm bed or in pots indoors, in fine potting soil at a constant temperature of 20°C. Bury the seeds 1 cm deep, watering with a sprayer to keep the soil moist but not soggy. Place your pots near a window to prevent the seedlings from drifting towards the light.
Transplant into rich, well-drained soil once the frosts have passed and the plants are 12 to 15 cm tall. Space plants 70 cm apart between rows and 50 cm apart in rows, in a sunny spot. Place stakes before planting and water abundantly at the base once a week to prevent disease.
Pruning is not compulsory and depends on your preferences. Removing suckers can increase fruit size and earliness, but requires time and attention. If you choose not to prune, the plants will need more space, around 1 m between each plant. Another method is to keep two main stems and remove the other suckers.
The main enemies of tomatoes are mildew and apical necrosis. To prevent downy mildew, protect your plants and treat them with Bordeaux mixture if necessary. Apical necrosis, or black-bottom, is caused by a lack of calcium or irregular watering. Water regularly and abundantly to avoid this problem.
