     Sowing Tomatoes' seeds

Growing Tomatoes as tradition,


Sow tomatoes seeds in March or April, about 6-8 weeks before the end of the ice-cold of the winter, or earlier if you are growing tomatoes seeds in containers. Sprinkle the seeds at least two inches apart onto good quilty seed compost. 
                             

Watering to Tomatoes' seeds

Growing Tomatoes as tradition,


Cover with 1.5mm of compost and water lightly with a fine-rose watering pot. You can use plant mister or just dribble a stream of water over the top. You don't need to soak the soil, just moisten the top layer. Wet soil leads to seedling rotting off and dying.

Preparing the container for planting


Moisten the container soil. It's easier to moisten the container mix before you put it in the containers. Add some water until the mix stays compressed in your hand, but is not dripping wet. It shouts break apart when you poke it with your finger.


Filling the container



Fill your container and gently fir the soil so that it is about an inch from the top.


Potting up Tomatoes seedling 



You should transplant individual tomato seedling into bigger containers, to continue are good for seedling this, 3 to 4 inches containers are good for seedling this size. You may need to move them to large containers later if you can't move them outdoors. Fill the new containers, you will need to thin the seedling.

Either gently jiggle entangled roots apart or simply trim off unwanted seedling at soil level. This ensures that you won't damage the seedling in the new container, a little deeper than it is was its original container. If it is tall and leggy, you can plant it right up to its top-most leaves. Firm the soil gently around the seedling.


Time for transplanting seedling outdoors in containers



When to transplant will depend on your last frost date and the actual weather. Err on the side of caution; if you put the plants out too early they could be died by a late ice-wave or set back by a spell.
Tomatoes planted a little later up to earlier transplants that have been stunted by the chill. In general, when nighttime temperatures remain steadily above 50F,  it is safe to start Harding off your seedling.

This should be about 4 to 6 weeks from when you potted up and your plants are now several inches tall, with some branching.

Transplanting Tomatoes seedling outdoors


When you ultimately ready to plant seedling outdoors in vases, try and choose a cool or overcast day.
Once again, plant your seedling deeper than they are in their previous pots so that new roots will form all along the buried stem.

You can plant them all the way up to the top couple to sets leaves, if possible. This is especially good if your plants have gotten too tall indoor and you want them to become stocker and stronger.

If you can't gid deep into pots enough, you can always plant them sideway, in-furrow. The top of the plant will find the sun and grow upright in a few days.
