Sowing: February / April
Harvest: July / SeptemberSowing: From February to April, use a bucket or heated greenhouse to sow your Summer Cider tomato seeds. Make sure the soil is fine and maintain a constant temperature of at least 20°C to encourage germination. Bury the seeds about 1 cm deep, then water gently to keep the soil moist but not soggy. Place the cups near a window for good light exposure. When the plants are 12 to 15 cm tall and there's no risk of frost, transplant them into rich, loose, healthy soil, spacing them 70 cm between rows and 50 cm apart on the row, in a warm, sunny spot. Install stakes to support the growth of the plants and water abundantly at the base once a week to prevent disease.
Tip: Cucumbers tend to be runners, but you can climb them on a support to save space in your garden. Encourage them to cling to a wire mesh or trellis with tendrils, making them easier to harvest and protecting them from dirt.

Should the gourmands be removed from tomato plants?
Opinions differ on the need to prune tomatoes, with each gardener having his or her own arguments. In reality, the decision is yours! If you opt for pruning, you should know that its aim is to promote fruit size and earliness, and to facilitate harvesting. However, this method requires time and care, as it's not always easy to distinguish the main head from a secondary shoot. What's more, removing suckers can cause injury to the plants. If you choose not to prune your tomatoes, they will simply need more space in the garden, with about 1 meter between each plant. The fruit may be smaller, but more numerous. Another option is to lead the plants on two strands, removing all the gourmands after pinching the foot 20 cm from the ground.
