Planting & Care

Start Black Truffle Tomato seeds indoors 6–8 weeks before the last expected frost. Sow seeds 1/4 inch deep in a sterile seed-starting mix and keep the medium consistently moist but not waterlogged. Maintain a warm temperature of 70–80°F for reliable germination, which typically occurs in 7–14 days. Provide bright light once seedlings emerge to encourage strong growth.

Harden off seedlings gradually before transplanting outdoors after the danger of frost has passed. Choose a sunny location with well-drained soil and space plants 24–36 inches apart. Provide sturdy support such as cages or stakes, as indeterminate vines can grow tall. Water regularly, aiming for about 1–2 inches per week, and mulch to retain moisture and suppress weeds. Fertilize according to soil test recommendations, and prune suckers if desired for better airflow. Harvest fruits when they are fully colored and slightly soft to the touch.
