SOLANUM ‘Garden Gem’

Cultural Notes

Plant material was supplied as plugs. Plugs were transplanted into 10-cm pots and grown for 4 weeks. They were then tranpslanted into raised garden beds top dressed with organic fertilizer and laid with plastic mulch. Plants were fertigated as needed. Total yield during the trial was about 15.6 lb/plant. Yield was negatively impacted by Southern blight, killing 3 plants during the trial period. Yield will likely be higher in areas not impacted by Southern blight. Flavor: Excellent.
