Tomatoes
Tomato plants are easy to grow, and they’re one of the easiest plants to start indoors from seed. Growing tomatoes can be very rewarding because they are relatively easy to grow even in gardens or spaces that are extremely limited. You can easily enjoy the amazing taste of a homegrown tomato picked fresh from your garden.
This video has some tips about how to grow healthy Tomato plants.
Growing Conditions
- Frost is the most common killer of the garden tomato plant so be absolutely certain that the last frost of the year has passed. Leave it a couple of weeks just to be sure that a surprise frost doesn’t strike.
- The tomato plant will typically grow best in temperatures well above freezing and if this isn’t possible then you should consider growing your tomato plant indoors or in a green house.
- Tomatoes will benefit from hotter months but they do need plenty of water for the best results.
Compost And Food
- Using the right compost will help with early growth and continued development of the tomatoes.
- Tomatoes need a lot of nitrogen and you can buy special tomato compost or grow bags that are designed especially for use in growing tomatoes.
- Once the plants begin to grown and the tomatoes appear, you can add further plant food in order to help further supplement the nitrogen that is required for your tomato crop to flourish.
