Tomato - Black Krim Black Krim sets well in the heat and is a heavy producer. Tomatoes need at least 1 inch of water a week. It is a "novelty" that does not sacrifice taste. They need at least 6 hours of direct sunlight a day. Soak to depth of 6 to 10 inches when watering. Black Krim is an intermediate tomato which means they continue to grow indefinitely until frost. In warm winter/hot summer areas, tomatoes can be planted in early fall for winter harvest. Prune the intermediate tomatoes in order to keep a single stem. They may also be seeded outside after the last average frost date.
