Not Knowing the Difference Between Determinate and Indeterminate Tomatoes
Perhaps the greatest decision to make with your tomato garden is whether you want to plant determinate or indeterminate tomato plants.
Determinate tomato plants grow to a particular height and tend to produce all of their fruit within a short timespan (about three weeks) in the summer. These work well for folks that want to harvest a lot of tomatoes at once for projects like preserving and making tomato sauce.
Indeterminate plants will continue to grow and produce fruit until frost hits. These are great if you want to have access to fresh tomatoes throughout the warm months for BLTs, salads and snacking.
