A cross between Micro-Tom times; Sugar, this variety is slightly larger and notably sweeter than Micro-Tom. It was developed to study plant growth in space and has since become a fascinating piece of horticultural history.Unfortunately, Micro-Tina (and its sister Micro-Gemma) were originally restricted for release only to teachers as part of classroom science projectsmdash;at a steep price of $20 per packet. Believing that seed should never be restricted, we obtained and grew it ourselves so gardeners everywhere can now enjoy this once ldquo;captiverdquo; space variety.While Micro-Tina isnrsquo;t the best-tasting micro wersquo;ve grownmdash;its skin is a bit thick and flavor mildmdash;its significance as part of the space program makes it a must-have for collectors, educators, and curious gardeners. Perfect for small containers or windowsill growing.DeterminateRugose Regular LeafEarlyndash;Mid Season\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mideast Trade","offers":[{"title":"6 Seeds","offer_id":45308517154925,"sku":"DLHJFE4","price":2.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0700\/5093\/8989\/files\/86abbfd74a0223733e30445f810c85b62378f916a3e37c8a86564659d9909ead.jpg?v=1780886739","url":"https:\/\/mideasttradeinc.com\/products\/microtina-dwarf-space-tomato-seeds","provider":"Mideast Trade","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
