Full sun. A hybrid variety, Big Beef yields full flavored, 10 to 12 ounce, globe-shaped red fruit. It is early to ripen and has moderate disease tolerance.

Indeterminate tomato vines set flowers until frost kills the plant. Indeterminate plants give you a long harvest season. Staking or trellising is recommended for indeterminate plants. Suckering of indeterminate plants is recommended for slicing varieties so that you get a good number of larger tomatoes (suckering is not necessary for cherry tomatoes).
