Red Snapper Tomato a hybrid, determinate tomato variety with consistent fruit set in warmer conditions. It has an excellent disease-resistance package including resistance to Tomato Spotted Wilt Virus and Tomato Yellow Leaf Curl Virus. Red Snapper produces large to extra-large, round fruits. Fruits are deep red with a delicious flavor. Red Snapper Tomato is an extremely productive variety with a bush growing habit. It is a versatile variety that can be harvested as mature-green tomatoes or vine ripe tomatoes. Fruits have a remarkable shelf-life once harvested which makes this a great variety for the backyard gardener or small-scale market farmer. Plants benefit from pruning early.

Tomatoes are in the nightshade family along with peppers and eggplant. Plants in the nightshade family are susceptible to blossom end rot, which is a result of a calcium deficiency. To prevent or alleviate this problem, apply pelleted gypsum at the base of the plant at bloom set. Tomatoes do best when transplanted, as the germination time can be longer than most vegetable seed. They grow very well in our heavy-duty seed starting trays. Plants should be started 4-6 weeks before the intended outdoor planting date.

If conditions outside are favorable, transplants may be planted directly from our 162 cell trays. If conditions are still too cold for planting tomatoes, transplants may be "stepped-up" to 4" pots to allow more room to grow. Tomatoes can produce heavy fruits and will require some form of support to keep the plant upright. This ensures that plants and fruits stay off the ground, reducing the possibility of disease and keeping fruits clean.

Red Snapper

Having trouble germinating ALL my tomato seeds this year, so I'm only giving 4 stars. Usually, My Grow Box has them up and ready in a maximum of 4 days. Even my Hot Peppers didn't take this long to pop up so I'm worried my seeds rotted. Started a new tray of seeds two days ago and keeping a monitor on them to make sure they don't dry out or any other issues.

Quality, not quantity.

I'm an avid watcher of Mr. and Mama Hoss and Travis videos, on YouTube. I recently purchased many seeds from Hoss Tools. Among the seeds, I ordered 50 Red Snapper. Every single seed looked excellent. All seeds, except for direct sow, are already started in the 5 162's I ordered. All 3 separate orders arrived within a week. I'll definitely be a returning customer. Thank you, Hoss Tools!
