Indeterminate- The Carbon tomato is an heirloom variety renowned for its rich, complex flavor and unique deep purple to dark red color. These large, beefsteak tomatoes can weigh up to 10-12 ounces, making them ideal for slicing. The fruit’s juicy, sweet, and slightly smoky taste makes it a favorite among tomato enthusiasts. This variety is prized not only for its exceptional taste but also for its appealing, dark, and almost black skin.
So I've grown this tomato for many years now, and I've grown it in a "death match" with many storied competitors. Carbon has reliably beaten both Paul Robeson and the legendary Black Krim in my opinion. Grown together in the same garden, tasted together at the same time, going back and forth for each each bite. I even think it edges out the remarkable new-comer Black Beauty. Carbon manages to dominate in its own unassuming way. If you crave the black tomato flavor, that earthiness, that subtle smoke, you must try Carbon.

Fantastic tomato with that special taste.
An excellent variety everyone should try
Beautiful seeds make beautiful plants. Thank you for a lovely product.
I received my seeds on time and immediately planted them. They germinated in 3 days. I'm about a week away from planting them into my garden. Hope to taste this variety soon.
So far all 6 seeds that I planted have germinated and are growing well. I am planning on transplanting them into bigger pots soon until they’re ready for the garden.
My old reliable variety, always produces an abundance of tomatoes towards the end of the season!
Little pepper plants popped up quickly, they seem to be doing very well thus far.
Really great germination, I am currently growing them in my hydroponic system.
I gave one to my partner last summer... he said, "WHY DOES THIS TASTE LIKE CHAMPAGNE??"
This variety will be in my garden until I can no longer garden!
