Overview
Chef's Choice Pink F1 is a big pink beefsteak from Seeds by Design that won AAS regional awards in 2015 for the Southeast and Great Lakes. Fruit is a flattened deep globe of 12 to 14 ounces with a sweet flavor, and the five-foot indeterminate vines set 30 or more, so they need firm staking. Space plants 15 to 18 inches apart and start seed about five weeks before setting out. Resistances include tomato mosaic virus, Alternaria, scab, Fusarium, Verticillium, and cracking. This is a slow one at roughly 110 days from transplant, best in gardens with a long warm season.
