Start seeds indoors before warm weather or sow after frost when soil is warm. Use a quality seed-starting mix, keep evenly moist, and provide strong light after germination. Transplant outdoors after frost danger has passed and nighttime temperatures are reliably warm.
Tomatoes perform best with consistent watering, mulch, fertile soil, and sturdy cages or stakes. Avoid overhead watering where possible to help keep foliage healthy.
