Tomato White Beauty | Lycopersicon esculentum | ||
|
Description
|
|||
Large white tomato with delicious gentle flavour. Full flesh with little seed. Good crop of 250g fruits with no cracking problems. | ||||
Culture
|
||||
Grow on the plugs in pots or plant out once all risk of frost has passed. . Prick out the growing tip after the 4th truss to promote ripening. Will need supporting by tying at 10cm spacing. Pinch out side shoots when they are about 2.5cm long. Remove a few leaves below each fruit truss as the leaves yellow - but not too many. Water every day, intermittent watering can cause cracking or blacking of the flower end of the fruit. The fruits loose their green colour as they ripen | ||||
Harvest/Use
|
||||
Pick ripe fruits as soon as they are ready. | ||||
