How to Grow Tomato Seeds
Sowing: Start tomato seeds indoors 6-8 weeks before the
last frost of spring, sowing the seeds in a flat 1/4" deep and 1"
apart. Keep the temperature at 70-75 degrees F until germination, as well as
providing adequate light in a sunny window or under a grow light; keep the soil
moist, but make sure drainage is adequate. When the second set of leaves
emerges, transplant the seedlings into individual pots; bury the stems up to
the lowest set of leaves to grow strongly rooted plants. A week before planting
the seedlings outside, begin exposing them to the weather during the day to
harden them; tomatoes cannot endure cold weather, and should not be
transplanted outside until all threat of frost has passed. When the soil
temperature reaches at least 70 degrees F, plant the seedlings in full sun and
very rich soil; once more, bury the entire stem up to the lowest set of leaves.
If providing a trellis, space the plants 2' apart, but if allowing the vines to
spread, space the plants 3-4' apart. For companion planting benefits, plant
Black Prince heirloom tomato seeds with carrots or onions, but avoid planting
them with cabbage or tomatoes.
Growing: Indeterminate tomato varieties often perform best
when provided with a trellis or support, since this protects them from various
pests and diseases in connection with too much soil contact. Put the supports
in place before the seedlings develop vines. As the vines begin to grow, tying
them to the support helps their development. Since temperatures below 55
degrees F can damage production, protect the plants if temperatures drop. A
thick layer of mulch helps conserve moisture and control weeds; water the
plants once a week, but avoid getting the leaves wet. Pruning the
"suckers," or shoots that grow between the main stem and the
branches, will greatly improve the production and strength of the plant.
Harvesting: Test the ripeness of tomatoes by pressing them
gently; the flesh should yield slightly. The mature color also indicates
ripeness. If the stem does not come easily off the vine, cut it with a
scissors. Vine ripened tomatoes have the best flavor, but as soon as frost
comes, all tomatoes should be harvested, even the green ones. Unripe tomatoes
will ripen eventually if kept in a warm place out of direct sunlight. Black
Prince tomatoes are early and abundant, and have an intense sweetness.
Don't forget to plant Marigolds around your tomatoes!
