Start tomato seeds indoors 6-8 weeks before your last frost date. Gently press seeds into the soil, cover lightly, and keep the soil consistently moist until germination, which typically occurs within 5-10 days.
For best growth, "pot up" tomato seedlings once or twice before transplanting outdoors. When repotting, bury the stem up to the lowest set of leaves to encourage root development along the buried stem, strengthening the plant.
After the risk of frost has passed, transplant tomatoes into a sunny location, spacing plants 18-24 inches (45-60 cm) apart. Indeterminate varieties will benefit from support, such as stakes or cages, to help manage upward growth and maximize yield.
