One of the easiest and most popular tomatoes to grow, and also one of the tastiest, 'Gardeners Delight' produces long trusses of bit-sized fruits, which are noted for their sweet flavour. Delicious when picked and eaten straight from the plant as a snack, they are also perfect for salads or sandwiches.
Tie in to supports and pinch out the sideshoots as the plant develops. Keep well watered and feed weekly with a tomato feed once the flowers form. Keep water levels in the soil consistent to prevent blossom end rot and split fruit.
From January to March, sow in a frost-free greenhouse or windowsill, potting on seedlings individually as they grow. Once all danger of frost has passed, plant into greenhouse borders or into growbags, or harden plants off and plant outside in rich soil in a sunny spot.
