Growers widely regard it as the heaviest yielder of the entire Jazz family, setting flawlessly through punishing greenhouse heatwaves without dropping a blossom. Full summary \u2193<\/a><\/div>\n

Sunrise Jazz was easily one of my favorite varieties of the 2018 season. A modern artisan release that comes in early and produces for an exceptionally long window. Indeterminate vine with regular leaf foliage. The tomatoes are oblate, scarlet with yellow marbling and streaks. In my garden, fruit weight spanned anywhere from 10 to 28 oz (300-800 g).
\nI picked my first ripe ones in mid-July and was still harvesting the last fruit in October. The flesh is tender, sweet, and juicy with a distinct tropical fruit aftertaste. The flavor stayed consistent all season long. Grew mine in a greenhouse, and it took intense summer heat like an absolute champ.\"\"<\/a> \"\"<\/a> \"\"<\/a> \"\"<\/a> \"\"<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Drop-dead gorgeous variety! \ud83d\udc4d Ran two plants in the greenhouse trained to two leaders. Crazy productive \ud83d\ude4c, fantastic flavor, and an extended harvest season.
\nOblate slicers up to 14 oz (400 g), red with gold stripes. Beautiful internal marbling when sliced, super juicy with that nice fruity undertone. \ud83d\ude0b
\nBig thanks to Sofia 27 for the seeds! \ud83d\ude4f

How do they hold up post-harvest? Can they hang on the vine once ripe, or do they crack and turn to mush quickly? And how is the disease tolerance? Are the vines vigorous or delicate? Such a stunner.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Radomila: How do they hold up post-harvest? Can they hang on the vine once ripe, or do they crack and turn to mush quickly?<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The vines are very vigorous. Trained to two leaders in the center greenhouse bed, they easily hit the rafters. I did notice the foliage on all the Jazz family varieties seems slightly lighter green than other tomatoes in the greenhouse.
\nIn midsummer greenhouse heat, ripe fruit can hang on the vine for a little bit, but not too long. Once the weather cools down, they hang great. In high summer, you won’t store them for weeks on the counter because they are quite juicy, but later in the fall when ambient temps drop, they keep very decently.
\nDisease resistance has been solid; they power through clean right until the hard frost.

Sunrise Jazz was a true showstopper in my greenhouse this year! \ud83d\udc4d
\nTall, sturdy vines carrying big, gorgeous fruit. At peak ripeness, they turn red-orange with a pink marbling over the crown. They all sized up nicely, averaging 10-18 oz (300-500 g), with a sweet, concentrated flavor and a bold fruity aftertaste. In greenhouse beds, training to 2 or 3 stems clearly delivers the best results.
\nIn my northern climate, it matured as a mid-season variety. Disease resistance was remarkable – the vines held clean, green foliage right to the end of the year. The fruit held up surprisingly well post-harvest without losing firmness.
\nHuge thanks to Sofia for sending me the seeds! \ud83d\ude4f An exceptional variety.

Season favorite by a mile! Ran in the greenhouse, pruned to two stems. In spite of an abnormally brutal heatwave this summer, it set every single cluster without dropping blossoms. Picked my first ripe fruit on July 20. 100% repeating this next year.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Svetlana! That fruit set is mind-boggling! Did you prop a mirror up behind the vine or what? That looks way too crowded! If it’s loaded down that hard, there’s no way those fruits can be running 10-18 oz (300-500 g) each! And the color is just magnificent!

Sunrise Jazz is by far the highest yielder in the whole Jazz family. Keep in mind that photo shows two plants pruned to two leaders each. The majority of the fruits were medium-sized, around 5-7 oz (150-200 g), with just a few specimens pushing up toward 14 oz (400 g).<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Svetlana, what’s your fertilizer schedule? How, what, and when do you feed to get a set like that?<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
