Tomato Seeds - Katana - Hybrid

Prepare fertile, well drained soil. Transplant in late spring/summer (soil temperatures at least above 60°F) in a very warm and sunny location. Plant so that soil level is just below the lowest leaves. Fertilize as needed. Train to a vertical support. Too much nitrogen will produce lush foliage and few fruits. This is a consistent producer of uniform, firm, beefsteak fruits with smooth shoulders. A hybrid semi determinate variety, the plants yield a continuous harvest throughout the season. Resistant to fusarium races 1, 2 & 3, verticillium, nematodes, tomato mosaic virus, and TYLCV. Prepare fresh or cooked. Use in stir-fry, soup or salad.

Tomato Seeds - Katana - Hybrid. Non-GMO. Solanum lycopersicum. 60 days (from transplant); Semi-determinate. Warm season annual. Start seeds inside 6 weeks before last frost date (or 8 weeks before expected transplanting date). Keep soil warm until emergence. Seeds will not germinate in cool soil and planting out too early may affect plant vigor. Harden off plants carefully before transplanting.

Pests and Diseases: Resistant to Fusarium Wilt 1, Fusarium Wilt 2, Fusarium Wilt 3, Root Knot Nematode, Tomato Mosaic Virus, Tomato Yellow Leaf Curl Virus, and Verticillium Wilt. Common pests known to harm tomato plants, in general, include the tomato hornworm, cutworm, aphids, flea beetles, tomato fruit worms, and whiteflies. Also, watch for common diseases such as blossom end rot, fusarium wilt, powdery mildew, verticillium wilt, late blight, bacterial canker/spot, and tobacco mosaic virus. Most of these can be prevented by maintaining a regular watering schedule and avoiding overwatering. Regularly check your plants for pest damage throughout the season. For treating pest and disease problems, we recommend using an organic neem-based product.
