Description
The Golden Jubilee Tomato is a standout cultivar known for its beautiful, golden fruit, mild flavor, and low acidity. Introduced in 1943 as an All-America Selection, this heavy-yielding tomato variety grows on indeterminate vines, producing large, meaty tomatoes with thick-walled interiors that are perfect for fresh eating, sauces, or canning.
The Golden Jubilee offers a unique and vibrant alternative to traditional red tomatoes, making it a favorite among both gardeners and chefs.
Early Crop Instructions
For an early harvest, start seeds indoors in pots or flats 5-7 weeks before planting outdoors. Keep the seedlings in a sunny location with moist, warm soil to ensure healthy germination. Once the seedlings reach a height of 5-10 inches (13-25 cm) and after the danger of frost has passed, transplant them outdoors to a sunny, well-drained garden bed.
Late Crop Instructions
For a later crop, sow seeds directly into the garden after the weather and soil have warmed sufficiently. Plant in a sunny location and space seeds or seedlings according to the recommended guidelines. Regularly cultivate the soil, apply vegetable food, and firm the soil over the seeds.
Care and Maintenance
- Stake or cage the plants to support the indeterminate vines and save space in your garden.
- Water deeply when the soil is dry, ensuring that the plants receive consistent moisture for optimal fruit development.
- Feed monthly to promote healthy growth and abundant yields.
- Harvest the tomatoes when their golden color is fully developed, and pick gently to avoid damaging the plant.
Final Words
For gardeners seeking a high-yielding, flavorful tomato with a unique golden color, the Golden Jubilee Tomato is an excellent choice. Its low-acid content and meaty, thick-walled fruit make it a versatile option for fresh eating, cooking, and preserving.
Whether you're growing for an early or late harvest, Golden Jubilee will reward you with vibrant, delicious tomatoes throughout the season.
