NE Seed Mountain Pride Tomato Seeds

Determinate tomatoes grow to a fixed size and ripen their entire crop over a short period, usually a few weeks. This makes them an excellent choice if you want to harvest a large amount of fruit at once for canning or sauce-making.

No, pruning is not necessary for Mountain Pride tomatoes. Because they are a bush-type variety, they naturally stay compact and do not require the extensive maintenance that indeterminate, vining tomatoes often need.

While they are bush-type, they still benefit from support to keep the fruit off the ground and prevent the stems from breaking under the weight of the harvest. A standard tomato cage, a short trellis, or a simple stake will provide plenty of stability.

Yes, they are a great choice for beginners. Their high resistance to common diseases like Fusarium Wilt and Anthracnose makes them much more forgiving and reliable than many heirloom varieties, giving you a better chance of a successful harvest.

You can expect these tomatoes to reach maturity in approximately 70 days from the time they are transplanted into your garden.

The seeds come in a resealable, moisture-resistant bag, which is ideal for storage. Keep the bag in a cool, dry, and dark place, such as a pantry or drawer, to maintain the best germination rates for future seasons.
