HOW TO PLANT Tomato SeedsHere are the steps for planting tomato seeds:Start by filling a seed tray or pot with seed compost and watering it well.Sow the tomato seeds on the surface of the compost, and then sprinkle a light layer of compost or vermiculite over the seeds.Cover the seed tray or pots with a plastic bag or lid, and place it in a warm spot (around 21-27°C or 70-80°F) such as a propagator or a warm windowsill. ( We like a plant starter heating pad)Keep the compost moist but not waterlogged. You can do this by placing a tray of water under the seed tray or pots or by misting the surface with a spray bottle.Once the seedlings have germinated, remove the plastic cover and place the tray or pots in a bright location but not in direct sunlight.When the seedlings are big enough to handle, transplant them into 7.5cm (3in) pots.When all risk of frost has passed, move the plant outside for an hour in the sunlight, increase it by an hour or two each day (get them use to direct light), next transplant the young plants 45cm (18in) apart in the open ground in a sunny spot, in well-drained soil. Water the seedlings well after transplanting.Note that:Tomato seeds should be started about 8-10 weeks before the last frost in your area.It is advisable to wait to transplant the seedlings into the garden until all risk of frost has passed. If you transplant them too early, they may be damaged or killed by frost.Tomatoes prefer well-drained soil with a pH between 5.0 and 6.8. If your soil is heavy clay or sandy, you may need to amend it with compost or other organic matter to provide the right growing conditions.Tomatoes will benefit significantly with a support system like stake or trellis.Keep an eye out for pests and diseases and take appropriate measures to prevent them from taking hold. The antioxidant lycopene found in tomatoes has been linked to numerous health benefits, including a reduced risk of heart disease and cancer. In addition, they are a great source of vitamin C, potassium, folate, and vitamin K. The Gifted Learning Project
