Shipping: 2-3 Business Days
EXCLUSIVE – Bred in England, where
tomato conditions are tough, Litt’l Bites is the ultimate patio tomato,
bearing scrumptious fruit on compact, productive plants. These
fast-growing little powerhouses are soon covered with multiple cascading
sprays of bite-size fruits that can only be described as truly
delicious little sweet morsels of goodness. Pretty Litt'l Bites plants
form dense, mounding canopies about 20 in. wide and 12 in. tall and
produce till frost, making them ideal for colorful, attractive hanging
baskets and containers.
Seed Count: 30-35 / Weight: 50 mg / F-1 Hybrid / Semi-Indeterminate
TARTING SEEDLINGS
In early spring, start indoors about 6 weeks before night temperatures are reliably in the 50-55°F (10-13°C). Sow seeds 1/4 in. deep and 1 in. apart in a container of seed starting mix. Keep moist but not soggy, and very warm, 80°F (27°C). Provide a strong light source until seedlings are ready to plant outside. When seedlings are 2 in. tall, transplant into individual 4-in. pots. Maintain at 70°F (21°C). Feed with half-strength fertilizer every 2 weeks until ready to plant. When night temperatures are reliably in the 55°F (13°C) range, gradually acclimate to outdoor conditions.
Container Growing: Transplant one seedling per pot or basket that is at least 16 in. in diameter and 16 in. high. Container tomatoes need a location with at least 6 hours of sun per day. Use fresh potting mix to prevent soil borne disease. Mulch plants well and water regularly: in hot weather, pots may need water daily. Fertilize every other week with a low nitrogen fertilizer for strong plants and good yields.
HARVEST AND USE
Litt’l Bites plants cascade attractively from their containers and are soon covered with tasty little cherry tomatoes. Pick and enjoy these cute little baby tomatoes frequently when red ripe to encourage the most production. For best flavor don’t store Litt’l Bites in the fridge.
