Growing and Care

• Sunlight: Black Cherry Tomato plants thrive in full sun, receiving at least 6-8 hours of direct sunlight daily.
• Watering: Water consistently, keeping the soil evenly moist but not waterlogged. Avoid wetting the foliage to prevent fungal diseases.
• Support: Provide support such as stakes or cages for the plants to climb and keep the fruits off the ground.
• Fertilizing: Use a balanced fertilizer or organic compost to nourish the plants throughout the growing season.
• Pruning: Remove suckers (side shoots) to promote better air circulation and focus energy on fruit production.

Harvesting

• Timing: Harvest Black Cherry Tomatoes when they are fully ripe and have developed their characteristic deep color. They should be firm but slightly soft to the touch.
• Storage: Store harvested tomatoes at room temperature away from direct sunlight. Refrigerate only if necessary and use within a few days for best flavor.
