What makes Big Daddy worth considering

• fruits typically reach a sizable 13–15 oz, with a glossy ruby-red exterior and a firm, meaty bite.
• Indeterminate growth habit: vines continue to produce throughout the summer, offering a longer harvest window.
• Disease resistance: bred to resist fusarium and verticillium, helping maintain healthy plants in common garden challenges.
• Non-GMO seed packet: 35 seeds per packet from a trusted Burpee source, designed for home gardeners.
• Proven germination and care tips: germination rates are reported higher than industry standards, with guidance to optimize starting and transplanting.

Growing notes and practical tips

• Days to transplant: expect about 85 days from indoors sowing to outdoor transplant, giving you a predictable timeline.
• Plant size and spacing: mature plants can reach roughly 60" tall with an approximate 55" spread, so sturdy support is helpful.
• Starting indoors: sow seeds 6–8 weeks before the typical last frost; harden off before moving outside.
• Care and harvest: provide full sun, well-drained soil, and trellising or cages; regular picking encourages ongoing production.
