Not frost resistant

Growing tips

Germination temperature 20-25°C, germination period 8-10 days. Suitable for outdoor use. Tomatoes need warm temperatures for germination between 20-25°C. After germination, place in a cooler place (max. 20°C). Sowing before March may result in lack of light and poorer plant growth. When pricking out, set deeper to the cotyledons so that the plants can form new roots. Harden off before planting out. Fertilize regularly and water evenly. Above all, tie or fix the main shoot, otherwise it could break off due to the heavy fruits. Protection from rain beneficial Care: moderate watering from below, support the plant, pruning and mulching recommended.
