Ready adult seedlings for open beds are recommended to "resettle" after 60-70 days. Time is set not only by us, but also by weather with climatic conditions. You just need to wait for the steadily warm air temperature and the time when the threat of frost completely disappears. At such a time, it is safe to plant grown plants from the greenhouse into the garden.

Do not forget that this is a tall variety, the plant must be tied in time to the pegs, at the very beginning of the garter, leave the loop free, the tomato continues to grow, and it will need space for the stem.
