How to Grow Tomatoes from Seed

• Tomatoes are very easy to grow from seed.
• You should start you seeds indoors using seed starting pellets.
• Keep the soil warm and dark until the seedlings appear.
• Put them on top of your refrigerator to keep them warm.
• It’s important to note that light/sun isn’t crucial until the seedlings have popped out of the soil.
• They usually poke their heads out of the soil in about 7-10 days.
•  As soon as the tomato sprouts appear, move the plants to a brighter yet cooler location.
• This is where they’ll need the light to continue growing nicely.
• The best time to grow tomato seedlings is at about 70ºF during the day and no lower than 40ºF at night.
• This promotes strong root development.
• As your tomatoes continue to grow (4″ tall), transplant them to larger pots.
• Bury them a bit lower into the soil than you would most other vegetables.
• About 2-weeks before you plan to transplant them into the garden, you should begin ‘hardening’ the plants a.k.a. getting them used to living outside and away from adult supervision.
• Move the pots outside in the shade during the day and then bring them back inside at night.
• This is the easiest way to get them to thrive and adapt to their current growing conditions.
• This is a VERY IMPORTANT step.
• You should always ‘harden’ tomato plants before transplanting them into the garden.
• This even needs to be done with Tomato plants you would have payed for at a local nursery.
