Growing Guide & Care Tips

• Planting Time: Plant out after the last frost (typically late May–June in the UK) when night temperatures consistently exceed 10°C.
• Location: Tomatoes thrive in full sun—choose a sheltered spot with at least 6 hours of direct sunlight daily.
• Soil Requirements: Prefers well-drained, fertile soil rich in organic matter. Maintain pH between 6.0–6.8.
• Watering: Keep soil evenly moist but not waterlogged. Water at the base to avoid wetting leaves.
• Feeding: Apply a high-potash tomato fertiliser once flowering begins. Feed every 7–14 days during fruiting.
