How to Sow and Plant
+
Sow cherry tomato seeds indoors from late February to March at around 20°C in seed trays or small pots. Once seedlings develop their first leaves, prick them out individually into flower or peat pots. When the risk of frost has passed, typically in early May, transplant seedlings to a sunny spot in a greenhouse or containers, spacing them about 45 x 45 cm apart. Support each plant with stakes and tie them gently. Pinch out growing tips after 3 to 4 flower clusters to encourage fruiting. Maintain regular watering to keep soil evenly moist for best results.
