How to Grow Tomatoes from Seed

For shorter growing seasons, it?s best to start seeds indoors 6 to 8 weeks before the last average frost date.

Seedlings can be transplanted into prepared garden soil once the danger of frost has passed.

Choose a sunny location that receives 8 hours of direct sunlight per day.

Space Mortgage Lifter tomato plants 30 to 48 inches (77 to 122 cm.) apart in rows.

Place rows every 3 to 4 feet (.91 to 1.2 meters) to allow plenty of room for growth.

When growing Mortgage Lifter, stakes or cages can be used to support the long vines.

This will encourage the plant to produce larger fruit and make harvesting tomatoes easier.

Mulching will help retain soil moisture and reduce competition from weeds.

Mortgage Lifter tomato plants require 1 to 2 inches (2.5 to 5 cm.) of rain per week.

Water when weekly rainfall is not sufficient.

For the richest flavor, pick tomatoes when they are fully ripe. 

Although growing Mortgage Lifter tomatoes may not pay off your home loan like they did for Mr. Byles, they are a delightful addition to the home garden.

Don't forget to plant Marigolds around your tomatoes!

So why do marigolds and tomatoes grow well together?

Marigolds and tomatoes are good garden buddies with similar growing conditions.

Research studies have indicated that planting marigolds between tomatoes protects the tomato plants from harmful root-knot nematodes in the soil.

Many gardeners believe that the pungent scent of marigolds also discourages a variety of pests such tomato hornworms, whiteflies, thrips, and maybe even rabbits!

SEED STORING

Store your seeds in a cool, dry and dark location.
Most seeds have a long shelf life, years even, but heat and moisture will cut that life short.
Dedicate a drawer or cabinet to storing your seeds where you can also house your gardening journal close at hand for dreaming, planning and preparing.
