Heirloom Tomato Plants and Other Vegetables

Val from Otaki District

Labour Weekend is the traditional time for planting tomatoes. We think it is still a bit early to be planting outdoors as the ground temperature has not warmed up sufficiently and the weather is pretty variable. However, you can get your plants off to a great start in a pot in a sunny spot for a couple more weeks. They'll thank you for the tlc!
Zucchini, beans and snow peas can be planted straight away. Capsicum and chilli still a couple of weeks away. So come on down to the Waikanae Market on Saturday morning or Otaki on Sunday and see what we have this week.
