What's so special about our yellomato?
Sowing and growing
So, start your yellomato plants indoors. You pre-sow them from the end of March to mid-April. Once they’re strong enough, you move them outside (around May 20).
Tomatoes need a lot of nutrients. Give them some extra MM-Plantfood when you plant them, and add some more in mid-July.
This variety only grows to about 40 cm tall. Unlike other tomatoes, you don’t need to remove the side branches (suckers). When the fruits ripen, just remove any leaves that are blocking their sun.
Yellomatoes remain white-green for a long time and then slowly fade to bright yellow. That's when you know they're ripe.
Step-by-step sowing and growing instructions are in the Planty Gardening app.
How do you use yellomatoes?
Pluck ripe tomatoes right off the plant. The stem breaks easily when they're ready. Or, use scissors and cut them off.
Tomatoes can be used raw or cooked. They're delicious in salads, sauces, soups, and stir fries.
