Overview
Galahad F1 is a compact determinate slicer bred by EarthWork Seeds that won AAS regional honors in 2020. Plants grow about four feet tall and still benefit from a stake or cage because the round red fruit is large, around 12 ounces and three inches across, slightly ribbed with a sweet, mild flavor. Trial judges rated it high yielding and pointed to it as a good canning tomato for pasta sauce or salsa. Disease resistance is wide: Verticillium, Fusarium races 1 through 3, nematodes, gray leaf spot, tomato spotted wilt virus, and late blight. Harvest starts roughly 75 days after transplanting.
