A very tasty pear shaped yellow tomato. It is colourful in salads, sliced or in preserves. Rich in vitamins, as it is flavourful, growth is fairly tall. Approximately 75 days to maturity from transplanting, tomato seeds require no prior treatment although steeping them in lukewarm water for 12 hours encourages germination.
Approximately 8-10 Seeds

Sowing & Growing
Tomato plants love the heat and can be sown indoors in a mini greenhouse (or in a simple seedling tray) or in the garden’s greenhouse from the beginning of March. Combining the use of turf pots filled with good potting compost and a mini greenhouse is the easiest. Perfect if you can also give some heat on the bottom of the tray or mini greenhouse.
Use 1 seed per pot, planted 0.5 cm deep and covered with some potting compost, then stand them on a sunny window sill. Depending on temperature they should germinate within 10 days, after which you can reduce humidity in the mini greenhouse by opening the slides (or pricking through the plastic held up by bamboo skewers covering the tray). After 5 days, the seedlings will then be acclimatised and they can be potted up to larger pots.

I have just bought all my new seeds for next year’s vegetables after having such great results this year. Budget seeds are so helpful, I’m a newbie in the veg growing world and they have been helpful in choosing the best seeds to start with etc. also much cheaper than elsewhere so if I do mess up in the future it isn’t costing me so much. I thoroughly recommend Budget Seeds for all your veg and flower seeds.
