The variety Cuore di Bue, in German ox heart, originates from Italy and is traditionally very popular there due to its excellent taste. The individual tomatoes grow up to half a kilogram in weight, are very fleshy, strongly ribbed and have a fairly thin skin. In Italy, this meaty tomato is often eaten with mozzarella (preferably still slightly green), but you can also use it perfectly for cooking. Because of their size, Cuore di Bue are easy to stuff and bake. Also delicious tomato sauces you can create well with this old Italian variety.
Growing and care
Tomato seeds like it a little warmer for germination. The temperature should be between 20 and 25 °C for this variety. A heated propagator is particularly suitable for propagation. The seeds can be pre-soaked for 12 hours between layers of cellulose (e.g. kitchen roll) and then placed directly in soil. Germination usually takes place after one to two weeks. As soon as the plants are more robust and no more frost is expected outdoors, you can plant them out.
Soil and location
To ensure that your tomato plants develop vigorously and bear plenty of fruit, it is best to give them a good quality substrate. The soil should be rich in nutrients and airy and should always be kept slightly moist. However, waterlogging should be avoided at all costs, so make sure that the water can drip out of the pots. As tomatoes are very light-hungry, they need a place where they get at least 6-8 hours of sun a day and are protected. The more sun your tomato plants get, the richer their harvest will be!
Tip:
Depending on the variety, it makes sense to prune the plants. This is especially the case with stake tomatoes, so you can save yourself the trouble with bush tomatoes. By pruning, you prevent too many small tomatoes from forming. If you trim your plants skilfully, you will get a few fruits less, but they are usually larger and have a better aroma.
