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.

Pigmy tomates
I planted these into my hydroponic garden, was very pleased sprouted quickly and growing nicely with a few flowers so far, still early days yet but they look very promising.

Not as good as I hoped
Low germination rate rate, and I’m pretty sure there were fewer than 20 seeds as noted on the packet. I really want these seeds to work, as they sound great.

Ready and waiting for some fantastic tomatoes
I have just planted the seeds for both my Micro Tomatoes - Pigmy and Windows Box. Can't wait for them to grow and start producing.
