To grow Roma tomatoes under cover, it's best to start by sowing the seeds in individual cups filled with fine compost in March. Sow one seed per cup at a depth of around 0.5 cm. Place the cups in a bright, warm place, such as a heated greenhouse or conservatory. Make sure the temperature is around 20°C to encourage germination. Keep the potting soil moist by watering regularly, but be careful not to over-wet to prevent the seeds rotting.
Once the plants have reached a height of around 10 cm and there is no risk of frost, you can transplant them into the ground or into large pots. Prepare the soil by adding compost to nourish the plants naturally. Remember to stake the plants to support them as they grow.
Monitor regularly for the appearance of diseases such as mildew and attacks by pests such as aphids. If necessary, you can use natural methods such as nettle purin to combat these problems. By following these tips, you'll be able to enjoy a fine crop of Roma tomatoes in your garden.
