Harden off transplants for a week before planting them outside. Transplant after the last spring frost when the ground is warm.Establish tomato cages in the ground at the time of founding. Support is recommended.Plant seedlings two feet apart.Pinch off a few lower branches of the transplants, and plant the root ball deep enough so that the remaining lowest leaves are barely above the surface of ground.GROWING REQUIREMENTS:WATERING:Water thoroughly to encourage the tomato roots to look for water and nutrients deep in the ground. When watering, soak the soil to a depth of at least 6 to 8 inches::PESTS:The pests that attack tomatoes might cause symptoms like chewed stem, defoliation, holes in leaves etc.
