Pot Tamper - Square Oak |
Cordon (Indeterminate). The finest of the preferred supermarket size tomatoes we've grown. Completely greenback free, crops heavily and over THREE WEEKS earlier than Moneymaker. It grows well outdoors or in a greenhouse in all areas, has a rich, tangy flavor uniquely its own - and the eye appeal of those clearly defined red and yellow stripes!
| Sowing time: | for greenhouse culture sow late winter to early spring; Indoors 6-8 weeks before last spring frost for transplating outdoors aft |
|---|---|
| Sowing depth: | 1.5mm (1/16in) |
Sow in a good seed sowing mix. Germination usually takes 6-14 days at 24-27C (75-80F).
Transplant seedlings when large enough to handle into 8cm (3in) pots and later plant out into grow bags, pots etc, at 45-60cm (18-24in) apart. Outside, sow early spring and grow as above. When 20cm (8in) tall gradually acclimatize to outdoor conditions and plant out 38-45cm (15-18in) apart 75cm (30in) between rows in a warm sheltered sunny spot in moist, fertile well drained soil and keep well watered.
Provide support and tie in regularly. Remove side shoots as they appear and restrict the plant to one main stem.
Outdoor plants - remove growing tip in late summer to hasten ripening.
