Crokini cherry tomato is a crunchy, juicy variety, with small, uniform berries of bright red colour, valued for the firm texture of its flesh that holds up well when bitten into.
It belongs to the species Solanum lycopersicum, family Solanaceae. An indeterminate plant with vigorous growth and excellent productivity throughout the season.
Sow in a heated seedbed between February and March, keeping the soil between 20 and 25°C; transplant between April and May, once frost risk has passed.
It prefers a sunny position and fertile, well-drained soil; it needs staking and regular watering to maintain the flesh's characteristic crunchiness.
Harvest is staggered from July to September; the berries should be picked at full ripeness when they reach a deep red colour, without waiting too long to avoid losing their typical firmness.
It can be affected by downy mildew, powdery mildew and blossom-end rot under irregular watering; good ventilation between plants helps prevent the main fungal problems.
Its crunchy texture makes it ideal for raw consumption in salads, snacks and appetisers, keeping its characteristic firmness even a few days after harvest.
Rich in lycopene, vitamin C and natural antioxidants, Crokini tomato contributes to overall wellbeing and cellular protection.
