Mr Fothergills Tomato Sunchocola F1 Hybrid – 10 Seeds

Prolific large cherry toms with an unusual colour fruit, good disease resistance.

Indeterminate (needs support), outdoors or greenhouse.

For greenhouse crops sow indoors, a warm kitchen windowsill is all you need for starting these seeds. Sow 0.5cm deep, thinly in a pot of compost. Water well and place in a warm position. A temperature of 15-20C (60-68F) is ideal. Keep moist. Seedlings usually appear in 7-14 days. Transplant to individual pots when 10-15cm (4-6 inches) tall. Grow on in cooler, but not cold conditions.

Plant out April to May, to large pots, growing bags or greenhouse border. Provide support, pinch out side shoots regularly and pinch out growing tip after 5-6 trusses have set. Tomatoes growing in a greenhouse require plenty of ventilation and water, feed regularly once trusses have set.
