This Tomatex growth sheath from Nortene helps tomato plants grow quickly and deliver better yields. It also protects them from cold, bad weather, insects, and diseases. It comes in the form of a long tube made of non-woven polyethylene fabric, measuring 10m (33ft) long and 60cm (24in) wide. It can be cut according to each gardener's needs. Each roll can be cut to create 6 sheaths measuring 1.5m (5ft) in length and 40cm (16in) in diameter. It is easy to use. Simply wrap each tomato plant in a sheath and secure it to the top of its stake.
This white non-woven polyethylene fabric, weighing 17g/m², creates a microclimate favourable to plant growth by increasing the air temperature around them. Like an almost transparent fabric, it allows light to pass through, ensures good ventilation for the plants, and partially isolates them from the wind and rain, thus limiting the risks of leaf diseases. The Tomatex sheath can be used alone, attached to the tomato stake, or integrated into a more elaborate system that includes a protective dome (sold separately) to be attached at the top using TOM CLIP clips (sold separately), and a water reserve stake, AQUATOM (sold separately).

Hardiness is the lowest winter temperature a plant can endure without suffering serious damage or even dying. However, hardiness is affected by location (a sheltered area, such as a patio), protection (winter cover) and soil type (hardiness is improved by well-drained soil).
The flowering period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions located in USDA zone 8 (France, the United Kingdom, Ireland, the Netherlands, etc.)
It will vary according to where you live:- In zones 9 to 10 (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), flowering will occur about 2 to 4 weeks earlier.
- In zones 6 to 7 (Germany, Poland, Slovenia, and lower mountainous regions), flowering will be delayed by 2 to 3 weeks.
- In zone 5 (Central Europe, Scandinavia), blooming will be delayed by 3 to 5 weeks.
In temperate climates, pruning of spring-flowering shrubs (forsythia, spireas, etc.) should be done just after flowering.
Pruning of summer-flowering shrubs (Indian Lilac, Perovskia, etc.) can be done in winter or spring.
In cold regions as well as with frost-sensitive plants, avoid pruning too early when severe frosts may still occur.
The planting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions located in USDA zone 8 (France, United Kingdom, Ireland, Netherlands).
It will vary according to where you live:
- In Mediterranean zones (Marseille, Madrid, Milan, etc.), autumn and winter are the best planting periods.
- In continental zones (Strasbourg, Munich, Vienna, etc.), delay planting by 2 to 3 weeks in spring and bring it forward by 2 to 4 weeks in autumn.
- In mountainous regions (the Alps, Pyrenees, Carpathians, etc.), it is best to plant in late spring (May-June) or late summer (August-September).
The harvesting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions in USDA zone 8 (France, England, Ireland, the Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...) fruit and vegetable harvests are likely to be delayed by 3-4 weeks.
In warmer areas (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), harvesting will probably take place earlier, depending on weather conditions.
The sowing periods indicated on our website apply to countries and regions within USDA Zone 8 (France, UK, Ireland, Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...), delay any outdoor sowing by 3-4 weeks, or sow under glass.
In warmer climes (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), bring outdoor sowing forward by a few weeks.
