DESCRIPTION
Tomato Bogus Fruchta is a great choice if you want a fast harvest and a compact plant that doesn’t require constant pruning. As a dwarf bush tomato, it typically doesn’t need suckers removed, which makes it ideal for first-time growers and busy gardeners.
Sow seeds 0.5–1 cm deep and keep germination at 18–22 °C. Once seedlings emerge, provide as much light as possible to prevent stretching. In containers, choose a larger pot and feed regularly, as productive plants use nutrients quickly. Even though the plant stays short, it’s a good idea to stake or support it to prevent stems from bending under the crop.
