Product description
Tomato 'Moneymaker' is a classic and well-loved tomato variety known for its reliability and high yields. This variety produces medium-sized, round, red fruits with a rich, balanced flavour, making it a staple for home gardens. 'Moneymaker' is an indeterminate variety, meaning it continues to grow and produce fruit throughout the season, making it an excellent choice for gardeners looking for a continuous supply of tomatoes. Its versatility makes it suitable for a variety of culinary uses, from fresh salads to cooking and preserving.
To grow Tomato 'Moneymaker', sow the seeds indoors from February to April, planting them 0.5cm deep in seed compost. Place the seed trays in a warm, well-lit area to encourage germination. Once the seedlings are large enough to handle and all risk of frost has passed, transplant them outdoors or into a greenhouse, spacing them 45cm apart. This variety thrives in full sun and well-drained, fertile soil, which is essential for producing the best crops. By following these planting instructions, you can ensure a robust and healthy crop of tomatoes.
Tomato 'Moneymaker' requires regular care to achieve the best results. Water consistently to keep the soil evenly moist, especially during dry periods, and provide support with stakes or cages to manage the plant's growth and keep the fruits off the ground. Feeding the plants with a balanced tomato fertiliser will promote healthy growth and fruiting. With proper care, you can enjoy a bountiful harvest from July to September, making 'Moneymaker' a reliable and rewarding addition to your vegetable garden.
