Grafted 'Turbo' vegetable plants! For your best ever crops! We've taken the best varieties available and grafted them onto an extremely vigorous-growing root stocks. Commerical crops have been grown in this way for a while and have been shown to:
Be more vigorous, producing larger plants. Have greater resistance to pests and diseases. Have less susceptibility to nutritional disorders. Perform well with less heat in your greenhouse. Yield top quality fruit earlier and over a longer period compared to normal plants.
Our trials have shown that grafted plants are incredibly healthy and give rise to larger, strong-growing plants giving earlier, heavier crops. They'll perform well outside but are particularly recommended for greenhouse growing, where they will fulfill their full potential and allow you to get plants off to an early start in spring without paying a fortune on heating your greenhouse.
TESTIMONIAL FROM JOE MAIDEN OF KITCHEN GARDEN MAGAZINE - 'The grafted plants were a great success, especially for earliness and flavour. The biggest success was with cucumber Passandra which produced consistently good fruits and in good numbers all season.'
