Tomato Seeds 'Supersteak'

• Huge beefsteak tomatoes weighing up to 500g each
• Superb flavour
• Good ‘meaty’ texture
• RHS Award of Garden Merit

Tomato 'Supersteak' certainly lives up to its name, producing huge beefsteak tomatoes with smooth skins, superb flavour and a great ‘meaty’ texture. The vigorous plants produce a good crop of fruits, each weighing in at around a staggering 500g! This top-quality beefsteak tomato grows well in a greenhouse or outdoors, and holds the RHS Award of Garden Merit for its outstanding performance.

This variety is a cordon or indeterminate variety, so the fruits are produced on a tall single stem. This will need support as it grow and the side shoots removed, to help increase fruit production.

Sow indoors

Sow individually, in clean 9cm (3,5in) pots or module trays of firm, pre0watered compost and cover with 1cm (1/2in) of vermiculite or sieved compost, Place in warmth, 18-21°C (65-70°F) and keep moist at all times.

Grow on

Grow on at 15°C (60°F) until late May. When established, plant into a patio pot 30cm (12in) or grow bag and leave in a cool, frost-free greenhouse or place in a sunny, sheltered position when the risk of frost has passed.

Tips

Water well and feed regularly with liquid fertiliser once fruits start to swell. Tie stems to a support as they grow and remove side shoots.
