Planting Instructions

1. Seed Preparation

• No specific treatment is required, but soaking seeds in warm water for 12-24 hours can accelerate germination.

2. Sowing Instructions

• Indoor Sowing: Start seeds 6-8 weeks before the last expected frost.
• Depth: Sow seeds 1/4 inch (0.6 cm) deep in a seed-starting mix.
• Temperature: Maintain a soil temperature of 70-75°F (21-24°C) for best results.

3. Germination

• Seeds typically germinate in 5-10 days under optimal conditions.
• Keep soil consistently moist but not soggy and provide plenty of light to prevent leggy growth.

4. Transplanting

• When: Once seedlings have at least two sets of true leaves and after the last frost has passed.
• Spacing: Transplant into containers, hanging baskets, or garden beds, spacing plants 12-18 inches apart.

5. Care and Maintenance

• Watering: Keep the soil evenly moist. Water at the base of the plant to avoid wetting the foliage, which helps prevent disease.
• Support: While this variety is naturally trailing, small cages or stakes can be used for support if necessary.
• Pruning: Minimal pruning is needed, but removing yellowing leaves or small suckers can improve airflow and plant health.
• Fertilization: Use a balanced fertilizer every 2-3 weeks to support continuous fruiting.

6. Harvesting

• Tomatoes ripen in 50-65 days after transplanting.
• Harvest when fruits are bright red, firm, and full of flavor for the best taste.
• Frequent picking encourages continued production.
