Tomato Delicious Seeds

Tomato Delicious

Introduced in 1964. Tomato Delicious produces huge crack-resistant scarlet beefsteak fruits averaging 250g but some have grown to twice this size. Delicious is a smooth excellent slicer with extra tasty flavour. Indeterminate vines yield good quantities of long-storing fruit.

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.
