Flavor took a backseat in the breeding of hybrids in favor of characteristics that enhanced pro- ductivity, uniformity, disease-resistance, and long shelf life. Heirlooms can have their downside. Though some heirlooms are quite pro- ductive, many produce lower yields than hybrids. Also, heirloom fruits have soft- er flesh and thinner skins, making them less suited to long-term storage because they are more likely to bruise or spoil. But tender skins, plump juiciness, appe- tizing texture, and unadulterated flavor is a big part of what makes growing heir- looms so appealing for a home gardener. WHAT IS AN HEIRLOOM?

  • Tomato Varieties
    Anderson’s Seed and Garden, Inc. “Our Seeds Succeed” Tomato Varieties There are many excellent tomato varieties available to home gardeners, both new and old. Selection should consider productivity, freedom from fruit splitting and disease resistance. Fusarium wilt and verticillium wilt are two common problems that can be overcome by selecting wilt-resistant varieties and rotating the planting so that these organisms are not able to build up in the soil. Leaf diseases such as early blight cause substantial leaf damage in many home gardens. The following varieties are oens that have good disease resistance and are high quality as well. Beefmaster VFN This beefsteak-type of tomato has maintained popularity for many years. The firm, meaty red fruits may weigh up to 2 pounds. Plants are extremely vigorous and productive. Production begins about 80 days from planting into the garden. Better Boy VFN A variety with vigorous plants that have gained and maintained popularity for many years. Fruits are bright red and may weigh up to about one pound. Fruits are firm, round and produced abundantly with first production about 75 days from transplants. Big Beef VFFNA This variety has a greater range of disease resistance than many others and won an All-America Selections award in 1994. Fruits may range from 10 to 12 ounces and are produced abundantly. They are smooth, red and produced about 73 days from planting into the garden. Celebrity VFFNTA This variety was an All-America Selections winner in 1984 but continues to be popular. Plants are determi- nate, which indicates that vines are short, and bushy, not lending themselves to staking.

  • Heirloom Tomato Cultivar Evaluation at Saint Charles, Illinois – 2004 *Denise Cimmarrusti, William H
    Heirloom Tomato Cultivar Evaluation at Saint Charles, Illinois – 2004 *Denise Cimmarrusti, William H. Shoemaker, University of Illinois As many new varieties of tomato become available on the market, choosing the right one becomes increasingly more important. Not only does selection affect the consumer, it can also have an impact on the grower. In determining selection, one must think of the traits each cultivar offers. Heirloom tomatoes, like hybrids, are unique in their offerings, and each needs to be carefully selected based on the cultivar’s characteristics and the grower’s management style. Traits such as: yield, disease/crack resistance, and color/flavor all play an important role in the selection process. Choosing the right cultivar, in the right location, for the right season will influence marketability and the perception of heirloom tomatoes. This evaluation was established at the University of Illinois, Saint Charles Horticulture Research Center to evaluate heirloom tomatoes and their characteristics. The data collected provides a comparative assessment of these characteristics. With this being the third season of growing heirloom tomatoes in an evaluation, varieties were sorted based on their unique characteristics. Cultivar chosen for this years’ evaluation were based on specific traits. These included cultivars which had previously shown the following: good crack resistance, moderate yield capability, adequate size/weight, and good disease resistance. Materials and Methods Transplant Production Fifty-five heirloom tomato cultivars were seeded in the greenhouse facilities on April 2. Seedlings were grown in 50 cell plastic trays. Plants were transplanted into the field on May 14 and watered in with a nutrient starter solution.

SO SAVE A FEW SEEDS OF YOUR FAVORITE VARIETY THIS YEAR The flower structure of most tomatoes is set up for a very high rate of self-pollination. Possible cross- pollination can happen by exposure to the “currant” types of tomatoes, L. pimpinellifolium. Potato-leafed varieties and the double flowered beefsteak types are also possible sources of cross-pollination. With currant types, potato-leafed varieties and double-flowered varieties, isolation is important due to elongated styles and exposed stigmas. Caging is useful when many of these easily cross-pollinated varieties are planted. Wind helps with good pollination of tomato flowers. The agitation of breezes can be enhanced with a daily gentle shaking of the tomato plants, especially when the plants are grown indoors. Do not select early fruits of tomatoes for seed saving. Instead, select tomatoes formed after the initial cold of spring is gone and the tomato plant is in good production. Also avoid fruits from diseased plants, as diseases can be passed from year to year through seeds. Choose fully ripe fruits that have the shape, color or other characteristics you are interested in. Cut your chosen tomatoes across their “equator” and scoop all the gel and seeds into a container.
