Tomato 'Early Gem' is an excellent salad tomato with red, 1.5 inch fruits. It has a sweet and tangy flavor. My mom found it in a patch Abe Lincoln tomatoes. She really liked it for its earliness and continuous production. It was introduced by Diane's Flower Seeds in 2025.
 
Spacing 3 feet.
 
Sowing Tomato Seeds: 
 
Start seeds indoors 6 to 8 weeks before the last frost date, 1/8 inch deep. Transplant outside 2 weeks after the last frost date.  Plant tomatoes deep in the soil for a better root structure. Space 3 feet apart. Full sun.
