Tomato 'Heinz 1350'

Heinz 1350 likes a position of full sun and remember to water moderately. Heinz 1350 is generally regarded as a tender plant, so remember to wait until your soil is warm and the night time temperature is well above freezing before moving outside. Heinz 1350 needs a loamy soil with a ph of 5.0 to 6.0 (moderately acidic soil to weakly acidic soil).
