Cultivation method:
Sow seeds indoors 6-8 weeks before the last expected frost date, maintaining a temperature of 72-80°F (22-26°C) to encourage rapid germination in 7-14 days. Transplant seedlings into individual pots when they are about 2 inches (5cm) tall.
When all risk of frost has passed, plant them out in the ground in rich, well-drained soil, ideally amended with compost. Space the plants about 50 to 60 cm apart to allow good air circulation and use stakes or cages to support indeterminate plants.
Water regularly to maintain consistent moisture, avoiding wetting the foliage to prevent disease. Harvest tomatoes when they turn a uniform chocolate brown color to enjoy their exceptional flavor.
