The Black Krim (also known as Black Crimea) tomato variety was discovered in Crimea, Ukraine in 1990. This is one of the best-flavored black tomatoes, producing 5-inch, roundish fruits. The beefsteak-type fruits have a unique combination of violet-brown and purple-red hues, turning almost black with sufficient sunlight and heat. The flavor is excellent and full.
These indeterminate plants require 70-90 days from transplant to reach maturity. When growing Black Krim tomatoes, it's important to gradually expose seedlings to ambient light if they were initially sprouted indoors. Caution should be taken to avoid direct, scorching sunlight, and seedlings may need to be "hardened off" through a slow process of sun exposure over 5-10 days. This can be done by placing them in a shaded or filtered light location, while also protecting them from strong winds, rain, or low humidity.
The optimal soil temperature for germination is 70-75°F. Seeds should be planted at a depth of 1/4 inch and kept consistently moist, but not allowed to dry out between waterings. It's recommended to start seeds in small, 4-inch or smaller containers using a well-drained potting mix, rather than direct in-ground germination.
Seeds should be started approximately 8 weeks before the planned transplant date, which should be 1-2 weeks after the expected last frost in your area. Soil temperatures should be maintained between 70-85°F for optimal germination. Cooler soils below 60-65°F, even just at night, can significantly delay or inhibit germination, while excessively warm soils above 90°F can also inhibit germination and lead to seed rot.
Overwatering can cause fungal growth and seed rot, so it's important to water only when the soil surface begins to dry. Multiple seeds can be planted in a single starter container, but should be thinned to a single plant once seedlings emerge. While seeds do not require light for germination, a light source should be provided for the seedlings once they have emerged from the soil.
In summary, the Black Krim is a unique and flavorful black tomato variety that requires careful attention to soil temperature, moisture, and gradual sun exposure during the growing process to ensure successful cultivation.
