Johnsons Tomato Marmande 50 Seeds

Tomato Marmande

This variety of tomato is popular in Provence. Tomato Marmande features heavy, ribbed fruits that are ideal for slicing due to their meatiness. While typically grown outdoors, it can also thrive in a greenhouse. This semi-determinate plant may require additional support as it grows.

Sow the seeds indoors on a warm kitchen windowsill or a greenhouse. Sow the seeds in a pot around 0.5cm deep and cover with a thin layer of compost. Keep the pot well-watered and warm. An ideal temperature of 15 – 20C is perfect. The seedlings will start to appear after 7 – 15 days. When the seedlings are large enough to handle transplant them into individual pots. Keep them growing on in cooler but not cold conditions. If the plants get too cold they will stop growing and struggle to get going again.
