Other: Rutgers is a well-known popular heirloom tomato from New Jersey. Rutgers tomatoes have slightly flattened globe-shaped fruit that weighs approximately 8 oz. The determinate plants produce a large initial crop, followed by several more flushes. This fruit has good uniformity, and Rutgers tomatoes are excellent for both market and home use. They are versatile in the kitchen, suitable for fresh eating, salads, salsas, or sandwiches. They can also be grilled, fried, baked, stewed, made into bisque, added to stews or mixed veggies. Furthermore, they are key ingredients in ketchup and sauces for pizzas and pasta. Storage options include freezing, canning, or drying.
Tomato plants are classified as either determinate or indeterminate. Determinate plants bear fruit that matures at roughly the same time, while indeterminate plants continue growing and producing fruit until frost. Interesting fact: there are over 7,500 different types of tomatoes globally.
