Tomatoes


  • tomato 300x275 tomato


I’m growing four different types of tomatoes this year.
I Sow tomatoes about 1 cm deep into a seed trays in a propagator in my green house back in March but  you can Sow them from February - April.
Germination takes 8-11 days.


1st variety is


Tomato Big Boy


Reliable variety. The plants produce fruit weighing up to 250 grams.  Meaty flesh, great for cooking, grilling.


2nd variety is


Tomato Golden 
Sunrise


Tomato Golden Sunrise produces medium sized yellow fruits, which have excellent sweet taste with fleshy consistence. The golden yellow fruits add a lovely colour to your summer salads.

 








3rd variety is

Tomato San Marzano


San Marzano is considered by many to be the best sauce tomato in the world.



The fruit is thinner and more pointed than that of the Roma tomato.
The sweet flavour, meaty flesh and low seed density in the fruit make this an ideal variety for making tomato sauce.





4th Variety


In the Hanging baskets


Tumbling Tom Red
 Tumbling Tom Red sweet and juicy cherry tomatoes throughout summer.

 

 


I planted all theses plants out last week when we had that really hot weather.


All I have to do now is water and Remove side shoots and wait for all my lovely tomatoes
