Growing Tomatoes in the Garden

Tip 1 - Make sure to Bury the Stems of Tomato seedlings

usually new roots sprouts quickly of the stems therefore plant the tomato seedlings up to the first true leaves because the more roots your plant will have the more fruits it will generate.

Tip 2 - Contact your local nursery for a disease resistant variety

You should plant a disease resistant variety of tomatoes because you won't be using any pesticides etc. So before you get on with it, contact your local nursery.

Tip 3 - Prune Fruitless Branches

Be sure you cut off any branches which have no fruit. This will allow the plant to use all resources for growing bigger tomatoes.

Tip 4 - Pick a spot with sunlight and air

Tomatoes need long hours of sunlight and space for air circulation. Pick a spot in your garden that gets plenty of sun and doesn't block air.

Tip 5 - Make sure you plant seeds with plenty of space

Don't crowd the seeds when you plant them otherwise they won't have room to grow. Give space between them so allow them to properly flourish. More useful tips can be found on the page I am sharing.

Tip 6 - Water it Carefully, deeply and infrequently

It is suggested by the experts to water the plant once a week only and during the summers only once every five days. Make sure to give the water to the soil but not the leaves.

Tip 7 - Avoid green starts when buying seedlings

 Always be careful of green starts when buying tomato seedlings. A lot of times these green starts have root systems which are poor and they wilt a few weeks after you plant them.

Tip 8 - Stake at least 6 foot high

If you wish to avoid damaging the roots of the plant use 6 foot stakes for the varities like brandywine tomatos
