<h2 class=""><strong>Cherry Plum Tomato Seeds "UNO"</strong></h2>
<h2><span style="color: #ff0000;"><strong>Price for Package of 20 or 300+- (1g) seeds.<br></strong></span></h2>
<div>A specially bred plum tomato that is ideal for preserving and making ketchup, tomato juice and soups. Tomato ‘UNO’ produces fleshy, juicy, almost seedless fruits with a deliciously different flavour which makes it an excellent variety for eating fresh too. This semi-bush variety is very heavy cropping and has good resistance to verticillium and fusarium wilt. A versatile variety that can be grown outside or in the greenhouse. Height: 150cm (59"). Spread: 50cm (20").</div>
<div>Fruit Weight: 50-60g </div>
<h2><strong>How To Sow</strong></h2>
<p><strong>For greenhouse cultivation: sow from February to March.</strong></p>
<p><strong>For outdoor cultivation: sow from March to April.</strong></p>
<p>Sow seeds on the surface of a good, free-draining, damp, seed sowing mix and cover with a fine sprinkling of compost or vermiculite. Place seed trays in a propagator at a constant temperature of around 15-20C (59-68F) until after germination, which takes 7-14 days. When seedlings gain 2 true leaves, transplant into individual 7.5cm (3") pots of compost and grow on at a minimum temperature of 15C (59F).</p>
<p>When growing in a heated glasshouse tomato plants may be transplanted at the end of May or when the first flowers are showing, if earlier. Allow 3 plants per growbag, or one per 25cm (10") pot, or plant tomatoes directly into the greenhouse soil.</p>
<p>When growing tomatoes outdoors, wait until all risk of frost has passed before transplanting tomatoes. Gradually acclimatise them to outdoor conditions over 7 - 10 days before planting out from early June when tomato plants are 20cm (8") tall. Choose a sheltered position in full sun on fertile, reliably moist, well drained soil, and transplant at a distance of 60cm (24") apart. Drive a (5’) cane into the soil adjacent to each plant to support them as they grow, and tie each main stem to its support with soft garden twine.</p>
<h2><strong>Aftercare</strong></h2>
<p>Water tomato plants frequently, to keep the compost evenly moist. Feed tomatoes regularly with a high potash plant food once the first truss of fruit has formed.</p>
<p>Semi bush varieties normally won’t need side shooting but as some can be quite vigorous, they may require staking and some trimming to keep under control. Tomatoes can be harvested as they ripen from July to September.</p><script src="//cdn.public.n1ed.com/G3OMDFLT/widgets.js"></script>
