Sowing Indoors
Sow seeds individually on edge in small pots of moist seed compost, 1.5cm deep. Place in warmth (15–20°C) and cover with cling film until seedlings emerge. Grow on under cool, light conditions, avoiding direct sunlight.
Planting Out
Acclimate young plants to outdoor conditions over 2–3 weeks before planting out to their cropping position in well-manured soil once danger of frost has passed.
Sowing Outdoors
Water sowing positions well, then sow 2–3 seeds on their edges, 2.5cm deep, close together in a group with 90cm between groups. After germination, leave only the strongest seedlings in each group.
Advice
Once fruits begin to swell, feed regularly with a liquid tomato feed and keep well watered.
