Northern Virginia 7a.
Started these in hydroponic garden late June 2023. 3-4 seeds per grow media (2). To my surprise, each and every seed actually grew! After thinning out to 1 plant, they were ready to harden off outside by mid July 2023. Also to my surprise, there was very little hardening-off period needed, i.e., I let them stay outside for 4 - 5 hours in direct sunlight one day and realized they weren't phased at all, and by the next day they were out there full time.
For giggles, I transplanted one plant into a 7" pot and the other into what l think is a 5", mainly to see what the height and width difference would end up being. Each pot got 2 pumps of Dr. Earth's liquid plant food once per week, and the photos are from September 7, 2023.
Can't comment on taste since they're not ripe, but from a growing perspective - did very well.

Sowing The SeedFor many Northern gardeners, tomatoes are best established indoors, 6 to 8 weeks prior to the last frost. Start in peat pots, sowing each seed at a depth of 1/4” under topsoil. The use of small stakes is recommended to support the plants as they grow. When the weather is warm & all danger of frost has passed, transplant or direct sow your tomatoes outdoors. The continued use of stakes will benefit a healthy tomato plant. |
Growing ConditionsTomatoes will thrive in an area of full sunlight with temperatures of at least 60F or higher. They prefer a rich soil, that is filled with organic matter. Make sure that the sowing medium is also well drained, as this is very important for a healthy root structure. Adding a light compost to areas containing hard, compact soil, can increase drainage. Water daily with a light moisture setting to avoid drowning the seedlings. |
Germination & GrowthYour tomato seeds will begin to germinate in roughly 7 to 14 days after sowing. The plants themselves will grow to a mature height of only 1 foot tall and can grow up to 12 or 18 inches wide. Tomato plants will usually need a fair amount of area to grow, however Tiny Tim Tomato plants can be grown in pots & containers or in a smaller area in the garden. No stakes or supports are necessary for this variety. If grown in rows, space the plants 12 inches apart, in rows spaced 24 inches apart. |

These seeds rock. Compact and full and flowers everywhere.
Reviewed in the United States on November 8, 2023
Is compact like it says. I have over 20 flowers on first plant already. The second plant in clay is under different light (t5-ho) and too far from it but is growing slow and looks healthy. I hope they taste good when ready! I will be planting a dozen tomato plants tomorrow. All will probably grow (my seeds sprouted in 2 days).

Honest review - not paid or compensated in any way.
I am growing these Tiny Tim Tomato seeds in my countertop hydroponic system.
Good germination rate! Kudos for that!
NOT DWARF!!!
The growing area of my hydroponic system is 17 inches. Should be plenty of room for a 12 inch tall plant, right? NOPE!!! My plants are about 45 inches tall. There is more plant above the light platform than below it.
NOT DETERMINANT!!!
I am currently on my second flush of tomatoes. But wait! Determinants only have one harvest, right? Yes! So these cannot be determinant!
These seeds grow.
The plants are healthy.
They make tomatoes.
Everyone likes them.
They are NOT what I purchased, so... one star. It's like ordering steak in a restaurant and getting chicken - that chicken may be well seasoned and cooked to perfection... still not what I ordered and paid for!
