No, the 'semi-bush' habit means you do not need to pinch out side shoots. This significantly simplifies the growing process.
For container growing, a pot of at least 10-15 liters (approx. 3-4 gallons) is recommended to provide adequate root space.
Sow seeds indoors or in a greenhouse from late February to April. Harden off and plant out after the last frost in May or June.
Super Marmande tomatoes are versatile and excellent for salads, sandwiches, roasting, and stuffing due to their meaty texture and sweet flavor.
RHS recommendation indicates the variety has undergone rigorous trials and demonstrated excellent performance in terms of yield, disease resistance, and fruit quality.
While they can be grown outdoors, they perform best in a sunny, sheltered location. For cooler climates or to ensure a better yield, growing in a greenhouse or polytunnel is recommended.
Ensure seeds are kept at the correct temperature (18-21°C) and are not sown too deeply. Check seed packet for viability date.
Seedlings are likely not receiving enough light. Move them to a brighter location or provide supplemental grow light. Ensure temperature is not too high.
This is often caused by inconsistent watering or calcium deficiency. Ensure soil remains evenly moist and consider a calcium supplement if problems persist.
Ensure adequate sunlight, temperature, and pollination. In greenhouses, consider gently shaking plants or using a small brush to aid pollination.
