Solanum lycopersicum - Indeterminate

Indoor Sow: 6-8 weeks before planting your seedlings outdoors. Light: Full spectrum grow lights or white fluorescent lights just a few inches above the seedlings. Strong light is needed; 14 to 16 hours per day. If you have no other light source than a windowsill, turn your seedlings regularly.

Transplant: 3 - 4 inches tall, and the nighttime temperatures are consistently above 50 degrees. Dig a hole in the middle of your tomato bed that is at least a few inches deeper than the depth of the pot the seedlings are in. Plant the seedlings deep with only the topmost leaves above ground. Don’t grab the seedling by the stem when removing it from the pot. Don’t plant in hot, sunny weather. Do thoroughly water seedlings after transplanting them, and again every few days until they become established. Use a 7 -10 Gallon container for higher yields.

Outdoor Sow: Around 2 weeks following the average last frost date.

Fertilizer: Every 2 weeks 5-10-10 half-strength organic fertilizer. Side-dress once with 2 lbs of 5-10-10 when fruit begins to set and again after the first harvest.

Harvest: Allow tomatoes to ripen on the vine. Skin will turn from dull to glossy when ready to Harvest. Color will vary between varieties but a ripe tomato will have a deeper color, and feel firm when gently squeezed.

Mulch: 1” compost, straw, dried leaves, or shredded newspaper
