Advice from our agronomist
When to sow. Sow seeds from late March to mid-April 0.5–1 cm deep in light peat-based compost; germination needs 22–25 °C.
Planting. Prick out seedlings at the 2–3 true-leaf stage into individual pots. In late May move them to their final spot – a pot or hanging basket of at least 5 L (8–10 L for trailing types), or outdoors after the last frosts.
Care. This compact variety needs no side-shoot removal; support heavy branches if needed. Water evenly so the soil never dries out.
Feeding and harvest. Feed every 10–14 days with tomato fertiliser, potassium-rich during flowering. Pick ripe fruit regularly to encourage new ones to ripen.
