Indeterminate. The Black Krim tomato is a striking heirloom variety known for its rich flavor and unique appearance. Originating from the Black Sea region of Russia, it produces large, dark red to purplish-brown fruits with green shoulders, average weighing around 8-12 ounces each, but can get up to 1 pound. The flavor profile is deeply sweet and slightly salty, making it a favorite among tomato connoisseurs.
Started popping out of the soil this morning! Super fast! Can not wait to see the produce I get from this plant.
Thank you again!
Looking forward to try these beautiful Black KRIMS!
I'm gonna tag you to check with you how your seeds are doing on the other side of the world!
Great germination and the best flavor
Black Krim is a must grow late variety. Its one of the highest standards of flavor in the tomato world. It needs full (all day) sun to get good tomatoes so don't crowd them or put them in shady places. They need pampering or they'll get blossom end rot. I've grown this tomato most years but I only get about 4 or 5 tomatoes before my season is over. Still worth the effort.
I had two plants. Decent production and very good tasting tomatoes. Sadly, they suffered greatly from the increased humidity this year here in central Pennsylvania. We usually get a few weeks of high humidity, but it was closer to two full months this year. When the leftovers from the Hurricane came through, all the extra moisture and humidity finished these plants off. Good while they lasted though.

Great fertilizer. Used for the first time last year for my fall bulbs and they were stunning and strong come spring. Planting another 250 bulbs this fall so came back for more bulb fertilizer. I also use the Trifecta. Can’t go wrong with any of Luke’s amendments.
Great germination and very prolific.
I grew this in a straw bale garden in 2025 and really enjoyed it. It grew amazingly well and was beautiful, so I purchased more for 2026. Michigan zone 6b.
I have grown these for the last few years and they are hands down my favorite. I like romas and firm tomatoes. These remind me of mini romas. These are less prone to splitting, super easy to harvest and has a super great flavor and very meaty. YUM!
The cloves are large, full and heavy. Of the two cloves I kept (shared 2 with my daughter), 12 were large enough to plant, 1 will be consumed.
