‘Sundrops’ Tomato, organic seeds (Solanum lycopersicum) Sundrops is an open-pollinated heirloom tomato producing small, oval, juicy orange fruit. Gaia describes a productive variety with resistance to cracking. This resistance reduces risk without guaranteeing that every fruit will remain intact when soil moisture changes sharply. S/P fruit suits snacks, salads, skewers, and fresh sauces. The plant is indeterminate and continues growing through the season. A sturdy cage or stake installed early supports the stems, keeps clusters accessible, and avoids disturbing established roots later. Regular picking also helps ripe orange fruit remain easy to see among the foliage.

Start seeds indoors 6 to 8 weeks before transplanting, approximately 1/8 to 1/4 inch deep. Gaia lists germination in 5 to 10 days from 10 to 35°C, with an optimum of 23 to 29°C. Keep the mix moist without standing water and place seedlings under bright light immediately after emergence. Harden them off gradually by reducing water and nitrogen without allowing wilt. Transplant after frost risk has passed into fertile, well-drained soil in full sun. Space plants 24 to 36 inches apart and install support at planting time. Good air circulation and soil-level watering help foliage dry after rain.

Gaia lists 85 days to maturity. Harvest after small fruit has expressed its full orange colour for the best taste. Fruit that has begun colouring can finish ripening off the vine above 21°C. The packet contains approximately 25 organic seeds, lot GOGOG691, with reported germination above 85%. The open-pollinated heirloom seeds are certified organic by Ecocert Canada. Gaia does not specify plant height or width on the consulted product page. Store whole tomatoes from 12 to 21°C at approximately 95% relative humidity, then pick regularly to reduce cluster weight and identify damaged or overripe fruit promptly.

Soil and care

The right care,at the right time.

Soil pH

Approximately 5.5 to 7

Care level

Moderate to high

Watering

Water deeply at soil level to moisten the full root zone, then wait until the surface begins to dry before watering again. Maintain even moisture during flowering and small oval fruit development because sharp changes can encourage cracking and blossom-end rot. Avoid light, frequent watering, standing water, and sprinkling foliage. For container plants, check moisture daily in hot weather without allowing the pot to stand in a water-filled saucer.

Soil type

This tomato prefers fertile, organic-matter-rich, well-drained soil with a pH of approximately 5.5 to 7. Incorporate mature compost before planting without using fresh manure. Avoid low areas where water remains around the roots and locations that recently grew tomatoes, potatoes, eggplants, peppers, or tomatillos. Clean mulch applied after the soil warms helps stabilize moisture and limit soil splash onto foliage.

Seasonal care

In spring, start seeds under bright light and harden seedlings off gradually. After frost, plant Sundrops in full sun with a sturdy cage or stake. In summer, water regularly at soil level and maintain good air circulation. Although Gaia highlights crack resistance, avoid sharp moisture changes. Pick fully ripe orange fruit often.
