F1 Hybrid

Not frost resistant

Growing tips

Germination temperature 20-25°C, germination period 8-10 days. Suitable for outdoor cultivation. Tomatoes need warm temperatures between 20-25°C for germination. Keep cooler after germination (max. 20°C). Sowing before March can lead to a lack of light and poorer plant growth. When pricking out, plant deeper down to the cotyledons so that the plants can develop new roots. Harden off before planting out. Fertilize regularly and water evenly. Tie or fix the main shoot in particular, as it could otherwise break off due to the heavy fruit. Protection from rain is an advantage Care: water moderately from below, support the plant, pruning and mulching recommended
