Very sensitive – protect from rain, wind and cold.
Beefsteak Tomato (also known as Fleischtomate) belongs to the Vegetables category and is suitable for outdoor planting from Late Spring onwards.
Use the Growing Temperature Sum (GTS) as a guide: Beefsteak Tomato can be safely transplanted once the local GTS has passed the threshold for Late Spring and no frost is expected. GrowPilot.guide calculates the current GTS for your location automatically.
🗓️ Tip: Always check the 10-day weather forecast before planting outdoors. The GTS is a helpful guide but does not replace a frost check for your specific area.
Beefsteak Tomato cannot tolerate any frost whatsoever. Even light ground frost (−1°C) can cause complete plant loss. Only transplant outdoors when night temperatures are consistently above 12°C and no frost is forecast for the next two weeks.
❄️ Late frost risk: In many temperate climates, late spring frosts can occur well into May. Always check the 10-day forecast before planting Beefsteak Tomato outdoors.
Beefsteak Tomato grows best at daytime temperatures between 20°C and 30°C. Night temperatures should not fall below 12°C.
Beefsteak Tomato is sensitive to mold and high humidity. Ensure good air circulation during prolonged wet or humid weather. Space plants well and allow leaves to dry after rain.
