Gleni said:What does indeterminate and determinate mean and why is the differentiation significant?


An easy way to think of it is: indeterminate = vine and determinate = bush

An indeterminate variety will keep growing and producing new flowers & tomatoes throughout the growing season
A determinate variety will grow to a set height and essentially produces one crop
