Tomato 'Azoychka'

Azoychka likes a position of full sun and remember to water moderately. Keep in mind when planting that Azoychka is thought of as tender, so it is really important to plant out well after your last frost date. Ideally plant in loamy soil and try to keep the ph of your soil between the range of 5.0 and 6.0 as Azoychka likes to be in moderately acidic soil to weakly acidic soil.

Start seeds indoors six weeks before last frost date.

Sow at a depth of approx. 0.78 inches (2.0 cm) and aim for a distance of at least 2.60 feet (80.0 cm) between Tomato plants. Soil temperature should be kept higher than 12°C / 54°F to ensure good germination.

By our calculations, you should look at sowing Azoychka about 42 days before your last frost date.

Transplant out when around 15cm (6 inches) high. Plant to the first leaves to increase root mass.

Ensure that temperatures are mild and all chance of frost has passed before planting out, as Azoychka is a tender plant.

This variety tends to be ready for harvesting by mid summer.

Azoychka is a Russian female name.

A Russian heirloom from the Bird Market in Moscow.
