What you need to know to Plant & Grow

This reliable indeterminate tomato requires an early start indoors and consistent watering throughout the growing season.

• Sow Indoors: Sow seeds indoors at least six weeks before the last spring frost date (up to 8 weeks is ideal). Use a peat moss-based growing mix.
• Germination: The temperature of the seeding mix should be 21°C to 24°C for prompt germination, which occurs in 10 to 14 days.
• Seedling Care: When the seedlings are 4 cm high, transplant each into individual pots, reducing the temperature to 15°C to 18°C until planting outside in late May.
• Transplanting: After hardening off, transplant into well-drained organic soil. Space the indeterminate plants 90 cm apart.
• Culture: Tomatoes need warmth, direct sunlight, and a steady supply of water. It’s important to irrigate frequently so the plants never wilt. Apply the water to the soil rather than showering down over the plants.
• Soil Management: It is very important to keep plants evenly watered as fluctuations in available soil moisture can lead to problems such as fruit cracking or splitting and blossom end rot. Apply a mulch of straw around plants to protect them from soil-borne diseases and help conserve moisture. Rotate the crop position in the garden every year; wait three years to use the same patch. Dig out and discard diseased plants; do not compost. Bears first ripe fruit about 60 days after transplanting.
