Planting Instructions:

Seed Preparation:

Tomato seeds generally do not require pre-soaking or special preparation. However, some gardeners lightly scarify (scratch) the seed coat to promote quicker germination.

Sowing:

Start seeds indoors 6-8 weeks before the last expected frost date in your area.
Use seed-starting trays or pots filled with a sterile seed-starting mix.
Plant seeds 1/4 inch deep and keep the soil consistently moist.
Place trays in a warm location with temperatures around 70-80°F (21-27°C) for optimal germination.

Germination:

Tomato seeds typically germinate within 5-10 days under ideal conditions.
Once seedlings emerge, provide ample light to prevent them from becoming leggy. A grow light can be beneficial if natural light is insufficient.

Transplanting:

Transplant seedlings outdoors after the last frost date when soil temperatures have warmed to at least 60°F (16°C).
Harden off seedlings by gradually exposing them to outdoor conditions over a period of 7-10 days.
Plant seedlings in well-prepared soil, spacing them 18-24 inches apart in rows spaced 3-4 feet apart for adequate air circulation.

Care and Maintenance:

Watering: Provide consistent moisture, aiming for about 1-2 inches of water per week, adjusting based on weather conditions.
Support: Stake or cage indeterminate varieties to support their growth and keep fruits off the ground.
Pruning: Remove suckers (additional shoots that form between the main stem and branches) to promote larger, healthier fruits.
Mulching: Apply mulch around plants to conserve moisture, suppress weeds, and prevent soil splashing onto the leaves, which can lead to disease.
