How to grow Tomato 'Tomcat'

  • Full Sun

  • Medium

Try to plant in a location that enjoys full sun and remember to water moderately. Keep in mind when planting that Tomcat is thought of as tender, so remember to wait until your soil is warm and the night time temperature is well above freezing before moving outside. Ideally plant in loamy soil and try to keep the ph of your soil between the range of 5.0 and 6.0 as Tomcat likes to be in moderately acidic soil to weakly acidic soil.

Growing Tomcat from seed

Seed is sterile or will not come true to plant.

Sow 0.78 inches (2.0 cm) deep with a guideline distance of 0.78 inches (2.0 cm). Soil temperature should be kept higher than 12°C / 54°F to ensure good germination.

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

Transplanting Tomcat

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

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

Harvesting Tomcat

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