Planting Instructions: Seed Preparation:
Tomato seeds generally do not require special preparation. However, soaking seeds overnight in water can sometimes aid in germination. Sowing:
Start seeds indoors 6-8 weeks before the last frost date in your area. Plant seeds 1/4 inch deep in seed-starting mix or soilless medium. Keep the soil consistently moist until seedlings emerge. Germination:
Tomato seeds typically germinate within 7-14 days when kept at a temperature of 70-80°F (21-27°C). Once seedlings have developed their second set of true leaves, transplant them into larger containers or outdoors into well-prepared garden beds. Transplanting:
Harden off seedlings by gradually exposing them to outdoor conditions over 7-10 days before transplanting. Plant seedlings outdoors after the danger of frost has passed, spacing them 18-24 inches apart in rows spaced 24-36 inches apart. Care and Maintenance:
Water deeply and regularly, aiming to keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Provide support for tomato plants as they grow using stakes, cages, or trellises to support heavy fruiting. Mulch around plants to maintain soil moisture and suppress weeds. Prune plants to improve air circulation and remove suckers to focus energy on fruit production.
