This selection brings together compact Tiny Tim cherry tomatoes and Roma V.F., a fleshy tomato suited to sauces and pastes.

The sowing depth is 6 mm (1\/4 in.) Germination usually takes 5 to 10 days. For germination, keep the soil at 24 to 28°C (75 to 82°F). Transplant tomato seedlings once true leaves develop and the roots hold the potting mix together. Provide bright light to prevent the young stems from stretching. A short, sturdy plant establishes more readily than a weak, stretched seedling. While hardening off the young plants, gradually extend the time they spend outdoors and bring them back inside if cold nights return.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe tomato Tiny Tim is chosen for its type of fruit as well as for the place available in the garden. Consider the mature size and growth habit when planning supports and access for harvest. Plant tomatoes where you can easily reach their fruit clusters from a garden path without pushing through the foliage. Position the supports to limit the shade cast on shorter neighbouring crops. Planting in rows makes stems easier to guide; a few separate plants bring the harvest closer to the patio. Leave enough space between tomato foliage and neighbouring plants for easy access and good air circulation.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Les jardins de l'écoumène","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52109520502944,"sku":"ECOU-SEMENCES","price":4.49,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0655\/3878\/5440\/files\/Tomate_cerise_Tiny_Tim.jpg?v=1770940542"},{"product_id":"w-h-perron-tomate-cerise-tiny-tim-rouge","title":"Tiny Tim cherry tomato","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTiny Tim cherry tomato\u003c\/strong\u003e (\u003cem\u003eSolanum lycopersicum\u003c\/em\u003e).
