Growing Tips:
The best time to plant tomatoes outside is after the last frost date, in full sun and well-drained soil. Provide stake or cage, especially for indeterminate tomatoes which will want to climb high.
Prune lower leaves 1' or so off the ground, provide good air circulation by removing excess leaves and keep water off the leaves. Provide good moisture in times of drought. Grow in rich soil and fertilize regularly with a tomato fertilizer. The addition of calcium will help prevent blossom end rot.
Plant 18"-24 apart in rows 36" apart for determinate. Plant 20"-30" in rows 36"-48" apart for indeterminate.
