How to grow Tomato 'Summerstar'

  • Full Sun

  • Medium

Try to plant in a location that enjoys full sun and remember to water moderately. Summerstar is generally regarded as a hardy plant, so this plant will survive close to or on freezing temperatures. Summerstar needs a loamy soil with a ph of 5.5 to 7.5 (weakly acidic soil to weakly alkaline soil).

Growing Summerstar from seed

Start seeds indoors six weeks before last frost date.

Try to aim for a seed spacing of at least 0.78 inches (2.0 cm) and sow at a depth of around 0.39 inches (1.0 cm). For optimal germination, soil temperature should be a minimum of 12°C / 54°F.

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

Transplanting Summerstar

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

Summerstar is hardy, so ensure you wait until all danger of frost has passed in your area before considering planting outside.
