(aka 'Mr Stripey') Free this month with KG!
Not just a pretty face, this uniquely striped tomato is also greenback free, a heavt cropper and will crop easily until the frosts. Perfect for indoor and outdoor growing. An attractive tomato for fresh salads and sandwiches.
Sowing instructions
Sow seeds 6mm (1/4in) deep in pots or trays of good, free draining, damp seed compost and cover with a sprinkling of vermiculite or compost. Place in a propagator, or seal container in a polythene bag, at 18-21C (65-70F)until after germination, which takes 7-10 days.
Growing instructions
Transplant seedlings when large enough to handle into 7.5 cm (3in) pots. Plant in the greenhouse in individual large pots, or 3 plants per grow bag when 20cm (8in) high. These can be planted outdoors, 45cm (18in) apart, once all risk of frost has passed. Plants require side shooting and support for the best yields. Water and feed plants regularly with a high potash feed once the first truss has set.
