Description
Heritage variety. Determinate. Large fat beefsteak with irregular shaped fruit, sharp, tart taste. Delicious.
10-15 seeds
- Sow seed Feb – March indoors in modules, seed trays or small pots and cover with a light covering of compost and keep moist. Grow with warmth provided by a heat mat or germinate inside house. Germination takes 14-21 days approx 18-25 degrees. Once germinated, if you’re sowing groups of seeds together they will need pricking out into individual modules or small posts and then move to a position with plenty of light.
- Transplant when seedlings are large enough (two sets of leaves) into 3 inch pots, bury the seedling up to its first leaves, water in and leave and grow on. Keep the compost moist but not wet.
- Final planting spacing approx 45-60cm should be approx. 8 weeks from sowing. Plant into final position once plant reaches approx 4 inches, either direct into soil/compost, in large pots or grow bags.
- Care – If planting outside plant from June onwards and harden off by moving plants to a cold frame for a couple of weeks then move to a sunny sheltered spot with well-drained soil. Stake plants for extra support and tie in as plants grow. I grow my tomatoes in a greenhouse so plant these out in late April May if you are doing the same
