Description

New to us this year is “Alice’s Dream” tomatoes. A Polish bred open pollinated beefsteak introduced in 2015. Reading reviews on line and friends, it sparked my curiosity and gave it a whirl.
Verdict? A winner. It is visually stunning. An under-flush of yellow deepens to a fire engine red broken by golden streaks all the while keeping its purple shoulders. The yellow flesh has streaks of deep pink. Best when still firm, it made a spectacular tomato sandwich that didn’t fall apart. Sweet tangy meaty with a bright tomato flavour.

How to germinate Alice’s Dream tomato seeds:

Sow 5 mm deep. Keep moist; plastic cover improves success. Opt. germination temp: 18-25 C. Days to germ: 5-10.  We use warmed moist medium (25-28C) when sowing. Equally warm water is used to mist in the seeds so there is good seed/medium contact.  This jump starts the germination process. When watering your tomatoes ALWAYS use warm 25-28C water.  This keeps the root mitochondria happy and vigorous. After all a plant is only as good as its roots.  Give strong indirect light. After the 3rd true leaf, they’re transplanted from plug trays into individual containers. Medium is amended with rock phosphate, Gaia Green 4-4-4,  and green sand. Once a week, the warm water is amended with 1 tbsp soluble kelp powder (2-2-16) and 1 tbsp blackstrap molasses per 5 gallon bucket. BTW: blossom end rot is a nutritional disorder caused by a lack of calcium causing fruit to rot from the blossom end. Use mulch to retain moisture. Never hit them with cold water.
