Storage Tomato Giant Multiflora

Sowing info

Surface sow seeds in small pots of moist, peat-free compost and just cover. Storage tomatoes need a late start. They need heat to germinate, and benefit from lots of light, so supplement both if necessary. Germination takes place within 1-2 weeks.

Growing info

Plant out after last frost and water until established. From that point water as little as possible to harden the skins for storage. Will require support. Remove side shoots and lower 50% of foliage to maintain straight, healthy plants. Remove whole trusses when the fruit is full sized but not yet fully ripe and hang in rodent free location.

Sowing months: February – May

Harvest months: July – October

Position: Full sun
