Additional Details

When to Sow Tomande F1 Tomato Seeds

Sow January to April, and plant from April to June.

Harvest

July to October.

Where to Sow

Sow seeds under glass 0.5 cm (1/4 in) deep in pots or trays of good seed sowing compost and lightly cover with a sprinkling of vermiculite or compost. Place containers in a propagator at a temperature of 18–21°C. 

What to do Next

Prick out seedlings, once large enough to handle, into 9cm (3 1/2in) pots. Transplant to the greenhouse border soil, or individual large pots, or 3 plants per growbag when 20cm (8in) high. Tomande F1 tomato plants can also be planted outdoors once all risk of frost has passed. Plants will require side shoots removed and will need to be tied to a support as they grow for the best yields. Water and feed plants regularly with a high potash feed once the first truss has set.

Handy Tip

Pick fruits as they ripen and water regularly, but do not overwater to help prevent these small fruits from splitting.
