Growing tips

Optimum germination temperature 20-22°C. Two-shoot cultivation is recommended, pinch out regularly. Due to its thin skin, it is recommended that Liguria is only grown in a greenhouse or protected open field. To develop its full flavor, Liguria needs a sunny, warm location. Rain protection for good yield and against brown rot. Delicate growth (early support). Medium-early, 70 to 84 days. Oxheart tomatoes are usually harvested slightly green and ripen over time. At harvest, the taste is still slightly sour, but becomes sweeter as it ripens and only then develops its full aroma.
