Tomato Nematex Seeds
$3.90
Unit price perSolanum lycopersicum
Nematex is a reliable tomato producing round, firm red fruits with a classic tomato flavour. The sturdy fruits hold well after picking and are versatile for fresh eating, salads, sandwiches and everyday cooking.
A particularly useful feature of Nematex is its resistance to root-knot nematodes, microscopic soil-dwelling pests that attack tomato roots and can cause poor growth, wilting and reduced yields. This resistance makes Nematex a valuable choice for gardens where nematodes have previously caused problems.
Plants are vigorous and indeterminate, continuing to grow, flower and set fruit throughout the season. Sturdy staking or trellising is recommended to support the vines and developing crop.
Seed count: approximately 250–400 seeds per gram. Approximately 40 seeds per packet.
When to Plant (Australia)
Tropics: February–August
Subtropics: August–April
Mild climates: August–December
Cold climates: September–December, after frost risk has passed
Planting / Sowing
Sow approximately 5 mm deep into seed-raising mix or directly where conditions are warm. In cooler climates, seed can be started indoors approximately five weeks before transplanting after the last frost. Best soil temperature for germination is approximately 16–35°C.
Space plants approximately 40–60 cm apart with 60–150 cm between rows. Grow in full sun in fertile, well-drained soil and provide sturdy staking or trellising for the climbing vines. Water at soil level where possible and avoid waterlogged conditions.
