Instructions - Tomatoes yield best in clay or loam soils that are well-drained and high in organic matter. They can tolerate acid soil as low as 5.5, but they prefer to grow in the 6.0-6.8 range. Using calcitic lime or gypsum can help to maintain a base saturation for calcium of 65-80 percent. Use a high phosphorus fertilizer for transplants. Days to maturity are from transplants. Start seeds 6-8 weeks before the planting date. The optimal soil temperature for germination is 75-85°F; seeds in colder situations will germinate very slowly. Do not start too early; transplants will suffer if allowed to become root-bound and leggy. Harden off transplants by reducing water and nitrogen fertilizer. Transplant outdoors after danger of frost has passed. 

• Plant 1/8-1/4" deep 
• Plant Spacing:  for determinate varieties 12-18", for indeterminate 24-36".
• Row Spacing:  4-6’ centers. Greenhouse Tomatoes- maintain 4 square ft/plant. 

Harvest & Storage: Harvest tomatoes fully ripe for the best flavor. Tomatoes can also be harvested green or at first blush and ripened off the vine at temperatures above 70°F. Store between 55° - 70°F at 95% relative humidity. Storing below 50°F can result in chilling damage.
