Overview

A piccolo baby plum tomato translated as 'small date'. Juicy, full of flavour and reliable, 'Valido' is ideal for indoor gardening systems as well as growing outdoors as a cordon due to its early ripening. It produces oval-elongated fruit, with an intense red colour and high firmness, resistant to splitting. Growing instructions: From February to May, sow 1cm deep in trays or two seeds per pot selecting the strongest seedling on germination. This takes one to two weeks and is best done at 64°F (18°C), ideally in a heated propagator, or covered with a clear plastic bag and placed on a warm windowsill. Use multi-purpose compost, to cover seeds. Plant out in a greenhouse from March or outside once the risk of frost has passed. Remove all side shoots as they appear. Pinch the growing tip when the plant has formed seven trusses under cover or four trusses outdoors. Sow: February to May Harvest: July to September
