Sowing Instructions

 

Indoors: Sow seeds from February to April in trays or pots filled with fine seed compost. Cover lightly, water gently, and maintain a temperature of 18–21°C. Once seedlings are large enough to handle, transplant them into individual pots and grow on in bright, warm conditions.

 

Outdoors/Greenhouse: Harden off plants and transplant to final positions after the last frost, spacing 45–60 cm apart. Support plants with stakes or canes and pinch out side shoots to encourage strong upward growth. Regular feeding and watering will ensure continuous cropping.

 

Harvest when the fruits are fully ripened with their characteristic red and gold-striped skin.

 

Tomato Red Zebra F1 is perfect for gardeners seeking a reliable, decorative, and flavoursome tomato that combines hybrid strength with stunning visual appeal.
