How to grow Tomato 'Mallorquin'

  • Partial Sun

  • High

Try to plant in a location that enjoys partial sun and remember to water often. Mallorquin is generally regarded as a tender plant, so remember to ensure that temperatures are mild before moving outdoors. Mallorquin needs a loamy soil with a ph of 5.5 to 7.5 (weakly acidic soil to weakly alkaline soil).

Growing Mallorquin from seed

Start seeds indoors six weeks before last frost date.

Aim to sow 0.39 inches (1.0 cm) deep and try to ensure a gap of at least 1.62 feet (50.0 cm). For optimal germination, soil temperature should be a minimum of 12°C / 54°F.

Transplanting Mallorquin

Plant to the first set of true leaves to promote strong root growth.

Mallorquin is tender, so ensure you wait until all danger of frost has passed in your area before considering planting outside - as a guideline, the minimum temperature outside should be approximately 10°C / 50°F.

Harvesting Mallorquin

This variety tends to mature and be ready for harvest in late summer.
