Tiger Cross F1 is a traditional looking fruit of dark green with lighter green stripes. It has a bush habit and can be harvested young as courgette or left until 30cm long for marrows.
Marrows can be cut before the first frost and stored in a frost free but cool area and used during the winter. However, unlike courgette the skin is tough and is either removed before cooking or just after. Raise and grow as courgettes.
Delicious roasted with a little olive oil, they make for a fresh accompaniment to any dinner.
Pack Size: 10 Seeds
WHEN TO SOW
April and May underglass or Mid May and June outdoors.
WHERE TO SOW
Sow seed on edge 1.5cm (1/2"") deep to prevent rotting in pots during April to May 2.5cm (1"") apart under glass at 20°C (68°F) using good quality seed sowing compost. Sow outdoors mid-May to June direct into growing site 1.5cm (1/2"") deep 2 to 3 seeds in each position 60cm (24"") apart.
WHAT TO DO NEXT
Greenhouse sowings should be gradually hardened off once they have developed the first pair of rough leaves and transplanted to growing site in late-May to early-June 60cm (24"") apart. Outdoor sowings should be thinned to one plant per station.
HARVEST
July to October
HANDY TIP
Fruits can be harvested young like courgettes or left to mature to a marrow. Pick regularly so plants remain productive.
