Roma Tomato Seeds 100mg Heirloom Non-GMO for Sauces
Roma tomato seeds produce a classic heirloom variety prized for its dense, meaty flesh and rich flavor. These paste-type tomatoes are ideal for making sauces, pastes, and canning, and they also perform well in fresh salsas and salads. The plants are determinate, growing as compact bushes that set fruit over a concentrated period, making them a practical choice for home gardeners and small-space growers.
Roma tomatoes are known for their elongated, plum-shaped fruit that ripens to a deep red. The vigorous plants are easy to grow and provide a generous harvest when given proper care. Whether you are an experienced gardener or a beginner, these seeds offer a rewarding way to enjoy homegrown tomatoes.

Planting & Care
Start seeds indoors 6-8 weeks before the last frost date. Sow seeds about 1/4 inch deep in a seed-starting mix, keeping the soil warm (70-80°F) and consistently moist. Once seedlings have two sets of true leaves, transplant them into larger pots and gradually acclimate them to outdoor conditions before planting in the garden after the danger of frost has passed.
Provide support such as cages or stakes to keep the determinate plants upright. Water regularly, aiming for about 1 inch per week, and mulch to retain moisture and suppress weeds. Fertilize lightly at planting and again when fruit begins to set. Harvest tomatoes when they are fully colored and slightly soft to the touch.
