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.

Honey Bee - The Germinator
I purchased my seeds early so as not to miss out. As with all seeds, I germinate them using a bottom heat pad. Of all the tomato varieties sown in the tray the Honey Bee was first up. From there the tray was placed in a mini greenhouse and when four leaves appeared potted up into small pots and returned to the greenhouse to develop a strong root system. Once that had occurred the smallish seedlings were again potted up to a larger pot and remained outdoors to harden off.
The Honey Bee plants have now moved into converted rubbish bins and are growing by the minute, still receiving regular doses of liquid fertiliser. As I have never grown this variety before the end result is uncertain but judging on their present growth pattern I’m sure they will produce the fruits for many a salad.
