nic's Tomato 'Latah' Care Instructions
Try for a seed spacing of at approx. 2.60 feet (80.0 cm) and sow at a depth of around 0.78 inches (2.0 cm) if planning to sow direct.
Latah normally grows to a max height of 3.90 feet (that's 1.20 metres metric) so ensure you have enough space in your garden for this plant.
Your garden has partial sun light - try to position in a full sun location instead.
Remember to water moderately.
Your garden's USDA Hardiness Zone (8) is within the ideal range for Tomato 'Latah'. The recommended range is between Zone 3 and 14.
A soil ph of between 5.0 and 6.0 is ideal for Tomato 'Latah' as it does best in acidic soil so test your soil acidity often.
Tomato 'Latah' tends to be susceptible to Bacterial Speck, Bacterial Spot, Bacterial Canker, Verticillium Wilt, and Early Blight so keep a note of any developing symptoms.
More information about Tomato 'Latah' is available in the Folia gardener's wiki. All Tomato 'Latah' Care Instructions have been kindly provided by our members.

Thanks! I was going to just use some plain plastic bags and some twist ties, but I thought the zip lock means I can just open it up at the top a bit to create a bit of a vent when I need to…we’ll see how it goes :)
