517. EX KARBAG
Information on the Ex Karbag tomato is quite scarce in mainstream seed catalogs and tomato databases, indicating it is likely a lesser-known or regionally shared heirloom variety. The name “Ex Karbag” may reflect its origin (possibly from a place or seed collector named Karbag) rather than an officially recognized cultivar name.
Growers who have come across this variety often describe it as follows:
 • Fruit Characteristics: Medium to large fruits with a meaty interior, suitable for slicing and fresh consumption.
 • Flavor Profile: Well-balanced, leaning toward sweet, making it good for salads, sandwiches, or light cooking.
 • Growth Habit: Indeterminate (continuously growing) plants that may require staking or caging for support.
 • Cultivation Notes: Open-pollinated, so saved seeds typically grow true to type. It’s reportedly adaptable to a range of growing conditions but may be somewhat rare outside of specialized seed exchanges.
Because “Ex Karbag” is not widely documented, anyone interested in this variety should seek seeds from heirloom enthusiasts or community seed swaps, and rely on shared growing experiences for the most accurate cultivation advice.
