Tomato Akoya F1 Hybrid Seeds

Tomato Akoya F1 Hybrid

This is an unusual but eye-catching determinate variety that is ideal for the patio and hanging baskets. The plant is compact with dark foliage and cocktail size fruits which ripen through green to black to orange red when they are fully ripe. They have a good resistance to blight.

How to Sow and Grow

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.
