Growing Information

How to Sow

Tomatoes are best sown in trays about 6-8 weeks prior to the last frost. Sow seeds about 5mm deep and keep the soil temperature to about 20 celcius until germination. Once the plants have grown their second leaves the seedlings can be transplanted into larger individual pots. Keep the tomato seedlings in a warm sunny position and maintain moisture levels. When planting out, position the plants so that soil covers the entire stem up to the first leaves. This will increase root development and ensure a healthy strong plant. Plants should be placed in full sun and rich soil.

How to Harvest

Tomatoes ripened on the vine will be ready once they show their mature colour. The fruits can also be squeezed and should yield slightly when ripe. If frost occurs and temperatures drop late in the season all tomatoes can be picked. Tomatoes that do not ripen on the vine can be ripened indoors by being placed in a warm place out or direct sun.

Micro tomatoes
I bought the seeds when they were offered even though it was too cold to sow them.I have put in two varieties for my daughter last week and they are starting to sprout. She, too, is a raised bed gardener currently in Broome. I have been raising Desert Roses on my heat mats and finally managed to sow tomatoes. I do not have a vegetable garden as I have severe IBS, but I do grow herbs in pots and I love tomatoes, even only one. I have one growing in a pot and flowering! It is still cool over here and still raining most days.
