Grow your own heavy harvests of exhibition-quality tomatoes! Tomato 'Shirley' F1 is one of the most popular cordon tomato varieties for cultivating in a cold or slightly heated greenhouse. This early maturing tomato has become an exhibitor's favourite for its heavy harvests of excellent quality fruit. With an open, indeterminate habit, this variety is best grown in growbags as a greenhouse cordon. T&M’s grafted tomatoes offer greater vigour and increased resistance to soil-borne diseases and pests. Tomato 'Shirley' also shows excellent disease resistance to Tobacco Mosaic Virus, Cladosporium ABC and Fusarium.Pot up and grow tomato plants on in warm frost-free conditions until large enough to plant outdoors. When all risk of frost has passed, gradually acclimatise them to outdoor conditions over a period of 7 to 10 days. Choose a sheltered position in full sun on fertile, reliably moist, well-drained soil, and transplant at a distance of 60cm (24") apart. Alternatively grow tomatoes in patio bags and containers in good quality compost such as John Innes No. 2. Drive a (5') cane into the soil adjacent to each plant to support them as they grow and tie each main stem to its support with soft garden twine.Product specifications:. Position: Full Sun.
