The Original Date Tomato
The original date tomato is the historic elongated-fruit variety that gave rise to the date tomato type, with small, very sweet berries and firm flesh typical of tomatoes from Puglia.
The Date Tomato Plant
It belongs to the species Solanum lycopersicum, family Solanaceae. An indeterminate, highly productive plant, with long clusters and numerous fruits.
How to Sow Date Tomato
Sow in a heated seedbed between February and March, with soil temperature between 20 and 25°C; transplant into the field between April and May.
How to Grow Date Tomato
It prefers a very sunny position and fertile, well-drained soil; it needs sturdy staking to support the long clusters and regular watering to develop its typical sweetness.
Tips for Date Tomato
Harvest is staggered from July to September, preferably as whole clusters when the fruits reach a uniform bright red colour.
Diseases and Pests of Date Tomato
It can be affected by downy mildew and blossom-end rot under irregular watering; crop rotation and good ventilation help prevent the main plant diseases.
Uses and Curiosities of Date Tomato
Its sweet, firm flesh makes it perfect for raw consumption in salads, but it is also highly valued for quick sauces and preserves thanks to its concentration of sugars.
Properties of Date Tomato
Rich in lycopene, vitamin C and potassium, date tomato has antioxidant properties that promote overall wellbeing.
