Tomato 'Pacesetter'

Plant in a location that enjoys full sun and remember to water moderately. Keep in mind when planting that Pacesetter is thought of as tender, so it is imperative to wait until temperatures are mild before planting out of doors. Pacesetter requires a loamy soil with a ph of 5.0 - 6.0 - it grows best in moderately acidic soil to weakly acidic soil.

Start seeds indoors six weeks before last frost date.

Ensure a distance of 2.60 feet (80.0 cm) between seeds when sowing - look to sow at a depth of approximately 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 Pacesetter about 42 days before your last frost date.

Transplant out when around 15cm (6 inches) high.

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 Pacesetter is a tender plant.

Expect harvests to start to occur in mid summer.
