    Plant near asparagus, basil, calendula, dill, garlic, nasturtiums, onions, parsley, thyme. Calendula serves as a deterrent for common garden pests. Asparagus acts as a repellent for nematodes. Basil is effective in repelling whiteflies, mosquitoes, spider mites, and aphids. Additionally, basil attracts bees, which enhances pollination, improves the health of tomatoes, and enhances their flavor. Dill creates an environment that makes it challenging for cutworms to lay their eggs and also supports parasitic wasps that prey on pest caterpillars. Lastly, thyme reduces the egg-laying activity of armyworms.

  • Flavour: Unique sweety and tarty taste
  • Preparation Ideas: Tiny Tim are a perfect addition to salads and fresh vegetable and dip platters.

How To Grow

Start tomato seeds indoors 6 to 8 weeks before the last frost in your area. Follow the seed depth and spacing guidelines indicated below. Once all danger of frost has passed, seedlings should be hardened off before planting in their growing location. Seedlings should be transplanted according to the plant and row spacing directions below. Transplant seedlings into the garden once the soil temperature has reached 15°C (60°F). Pick a location sheltered from the wind. Regularly monitor your plants and ensure that the soil remains moist , but not soggy while they establish themselves in their new environment.

  • Planting Depth: 6 mm (1/4in.)
  • Seed Spacing: Sow tomato seeds roughly 2.5 cm (1 in.) apart in rows, keeping rows approximately 90 cm (36 in.) apart.
  • Plant Spacing: 60-90 cm (24-36 in.)
  • Instructions for Nutrient Care: Apply SUPERThrive once per week. Soak in solution of 1/4 tsp per gal for 15 min. or longer depending on size and type.
Suggestions Chevron Down Chevron Forward
Growing Suggestions:
  • Tiny Tim is a determinate tomato meaning no staking is required.
  • Tomato plants need a lot of water to produce juicy, flavorful tomatoes! Consistent moisture is essential for best results. If tomatoes do not receive consistent moisture, the skins will split or possibly develop blossom end rot. Always water plants at the oil level; this strengthens the root system and avoids foliage disease.
  • Spread mulch around the base of the plant to prevent soil from splashing onto the fruit as this can lead to disease in the tomatoes.
  • As your tomato plants grow, you will notice new small stems sprouting from the point where the main stem connects to the larger branches. These small stems are called in suckers in and they tend to drain a lot of energy from your plant. To help your tomato plants grow faster and produce amazing tomatoes, it is recommended you remove these suckers by pinching them off with your thumb and forefinger. By doing so, your tomato plant will be able to allocate more energy to the growth of the main stem, resulting in better tomato production.
  • If you plant your seedlings deeply, it will encourage the growth of roots from the main stem. Sometimes, tomato plants tend to grow tall and may fall over, even in their initial stages. To avoid this, plant them just deep enough so that the bottom set of leaves is 2.5-5 cm (1-2 in) above the soil surface. Some gardeners prefer planting their tomatoes on their sides, which helps to spread the root system over a larger area, strengthen the main stem, and straighten it toward the sun.

Got 14 in the ground thriving right now lol

"Barely water them since I mulch them really well. They just live on their own almost. Cool plant that I don’t stake. First tried them in the winter time indoor grow and worked great. I do trim the bottom leaves off for airflow and less bugs crawling up and eating leaves. Also I have a salt shaker I fill with flour and I shake on the leaves to stop the flea Beatles from eating the leaves and putting tons of pin holes in the leaves. This plant is known for being the easiest fruiting plant to grow and I believe it"

Easy to Grow, Tasty

"I planted these in mid-April using the double Solo cup method, then set them on a sunny window sill. Every seed germinated, so I had extras. I planted them outdoors in early June. Tasty little tomatoes have been ripening for a couple of weeks now. The growing season was erratic, but these tomatoes do not give up. This is my second year growing these tasty little cherry tomatoes. They're a favorite."

Q&A

I bought two packages of seed for Tiny Tim tomatoes. The seeds in one package are tan in colour like other tomato seeds and the seeds in the other package are small and dark brown. Can you tell me which is the correct seed? Something isn’t right.
The seed colour can vary depending on how ripe the tomato was when the seed was harvested. The riper the tomato, the darker the seed will be.
