Product description

Tomato 'Crokini' F1 is a modern hybrid cherry tomato, prized for its remarkable resistance to splitting, even in variable weather conditions. This productive cordon variety grows as a tall vine, yielding exceptionally long trusses of small, perfectly round, bright red fruits. The tomatoes have a super sweet flavour and a satisfyingly crisp texture, making them an excellent and reliable choice for both greenhouse and outdoor cultivation.

Sow 'Crokini' F1 seeds in pots or trays of compost under cover, keeping them in a warm place at around 20-22C for reliable germination. When the seedlings have developed their first true leaves, carefully prick them out into individual pots and grow them on in bright, frost-free conditions. Gradually acclimatise the young plants to outdoor conditions before moving them to their final growing position after all risk of hard frost has passed.

Choose a spot in full sun with rich, fertile, and well-draining soil. As a productive cordon variety, it is essential to provide sturdy support, such as a tall cane or string, for the vine to be tied to as it grows. Space plants about 45-60cm apart. Water consistently and feed regularly with a high-potash fertiliser once the first fruits begin to form. To direct energy into fruiting, regularly pinch out the side shoots that appear between the main stem and leaf branches.
