Tomato

60d to harvest

Bursting with a fresh, grape-like snap, Green Grape cherry tomatoes ripen to a luminous, translucent green that tastes bright and tangy with a subtle sweetness. The fruits are small and glossy, borne in tidy clusters, with a juicy, tender bite that shines in salads and bright, quick sauces. Grow this 60-day standout for a living harvest you’ll want to pick again and again—vines stay productive as the color deepens from pale lime to verdant jewel.

Frequently Asked Questions

What pest or disease commonly affects Physalis philadelphica (green grape/tomatillo type), and what should I do?

Watch for early blight and gray leaf spot (Alternaria/Botrytis), which show as dark leaf spots that spread during humid weather. Remove and destroy infected leaves early, water at the base (not the foliage), and improve airflow by spacing plants so leaves dry quickly. If spots keep expanding, treat with a labeled fungicide for tomatoes/tomatillos and repeat according to the label interval, especially after wet spells.

How often should I water Physalis philadelphica during active growth?

During the main growing phase, keep the soil evenly moist but not soggy—aim for roughly 1–2 inches of water per week depending on heat, with more frequent watering during hot, dry stretches. Water deeply to 6–8 inches so the roots reach down, then let the top inch of soil dry slightly before watering again. Mulch helps prevent the wet–dry swings that can lead to leaf problems and uneven fruit development.
