Best Roma Tomatoes - Growing San Marzano Roma Tomato

Growing San Marzano tomatoes is not only easy, its very satisfying. These Italian paste tomatoes are excellent in taste and make excellent tomato paste.

Super fun video! I love how your tomatoes look. For us they do not do well in Michigan, but have friends that confirm they grow amazing in hotter climates.

Ahh, wish I had the Southern Californian climate :) These look great.

We tend to nip the tops of indeterminate tomato plants at about 6-8 nodes in order to get them to stop growing and focus on ripening in our short summer.

Eating one now. Bought a starter on a whim at Walmart. The plant is over 8 foot tall (I had to top it because It out grew the stakes and couldn't reach it, ) and is just LOADED with fruit. The great taste, great disease resistance, great productivity, I am going to grow several plants next year.

I have not grown that variety but I will now. I learn so much information from your videos! Thank you!

I'm growing them for the first time. They're not ready yet. I was mainly Googling them in relation to how much to water them. I'm in Vancouver, BC. I didn't know that they were mainly for puree and sauces. Glad I'm also growing Lemon Boy, a yellow tomato, really yummy. 🍅

Hi I am starting this variety this year indoors first under my grow lights. I am very excited to try this type homegrown tomato. Thank you for all the tips. Happy Gardening!

I am starting a vegetable garden in Hawaii and I bought seeds of Roma and San Marzano tomatoes. All the seeds germinated very fast however after planting my yield was ten times greater of the San Marzano variety!🍅

May flowering…. You’re in California. 😉
Here in the East Tennessee we can’t even plant our tomatoes till June but they go until September or October

[blakegrunwell]

Currently growing these for the first time in zone 10. Can you advise me how you prune them? Ive noticed they are producing suckers at multiple leaf joints on each branch. Do you prune them all? Would appreciate any advice you have. Mine have just begun to flower.

I do like the San Marzano variety. You are right about the sun. I don't have enough at my Florida or North Georgia gardens. Very frustrating. I get tomatoes but not as much as I could get with sun.

I giving these roma tomatoes a shot for the first time. I planted a number of organic plants in 2 raised flower beds with organic soil. Now on lucks good graces because I've never grown them before. I wasn't even sure how far apart to plant each one, and how large they will actually grow. I'm using nothing but collected rainwater and the organic soil seems to contain all the Vitale nutrients for good growth. Any advice from anyone on where and how to proceed from here would be appreciated. I'm not new to I crush and jar farm fresh bushels every season. I want to start jarring a few of my own homegrown variety.

Next Spring I will try growing them in a Bucket As I do not have room for a garden etc

Great video! How or where do I purchase authentic San Marzano Roma tomatoe seeds?

[blackmoney]

Can i grow them on my rooftop with green net because it gets very hot during the summer in our region?
