Tomato Black Opal Seed
Tomato Black opal is a dark chocolate coloured cherry tomato. It has a tangy yet sweet flavour and excellent texture. The small fruits are borne on long, branched trusses and can produce approximately 150 to 200 fruits per plant in an average growing season. Shows good disease tolerance. This is an indeterminate cordon type.
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.
