Carbon Copy
Bursting with a glossy, candy-bright sweetness, Carbon Copy cherry tomatoes ripen to a rich, true red that catches the light on the vine. Each fruit is small yet satisfyingly firm, with a juicy snap and a clean, aromatic tomato flavor that shines whether you’re savoring them straight from the garden or letting their vivid taste carry through sauces and quick roasting. Grow Carbon Copy for a steady, early harvest at about 60 days—an abundant, vine-hugging treat for the home gardener who loves flavor that pops.

Sowing Tips

Direct sow or transplant when soil at planting depth holds 60°F for reliable germination and early growth.
Expert Note
Start indoors early, keep seedlings from getting leggy, and transplant only when soil is reliably warm (60°F+) to avoid chilling stress.
