Early Green Tomatillo

Early Green Tomatillo - Husk Tomato - Heat-Tolerant Heirloom Vegetable Seeds

Physalis philadelphica

Tomatillos are really important for lots of different Mexican dishes and is the main ingredient for making salsa verde. This green cultivar produces lots of ripe fruit all at once so you can easily can/freeze a large amount all at once. I like to freeze them and then process everything at the end of the season in one day to save time. The plants don't take up much space (about 24 inches tall), so they're great for smaller gardens or growing in containers/grow bags. Tomatillos are in the same family as tomatoes, so grow them in similar conditions, but tomatillos can handle hotter temperatures. I recommend you plant at least two plants so they can cross pollinate which will increase yields.

Follow me on social media because I share lots of information on growing this tomato variety and other gardening tips. YouTube, Instagram, and TikTok: jerrasgarden.

Listing is for 1 packet of minimum 30 seeds. I have limited quantities of this variety. Once sold out I wont have more for some time.

PLANTING

Germination: 7-10 days. To speed up germination I recommend using a heat mat.

Seed Sowing Depth: 1/8” deep

Sowing: I highly recommend to start in pots in doors with a heat mat 6-8 weeks before your last frost date. If you gardening in Florida, we have two opportunities to grow per year. You can start them in doors around July 1st and transplant into the garden end of September for fall/winter harvest. Or you can start from seed in doors 6-8 weeks from your last frost date for spring harvest.

Days to maturity: 85 days from transplanting into the garden
