Harvesting

Harvest can begin from mid-May and continue through October depending on where they're grown (when using our hydro systems in a greenhouse you could even still be picking in December).

Pick the fruits as and when they ripen.

As the end of the season you’ll find a lot of green fruit. These can be picked and left to ripen in a sunny spot. Place a couple of ripe bananas or apples next to them to help them ripen.

In 2009, we enjoyed a fabulous harvest of 7.9kg of tomatoes.

We grew 4 varieties, Scarlatto, San Marzano, Rosada and Sweet Million in our Quadgrow 4x Self-watering Pots and our Gardening Angel Victoria closely followed their progress.
