Green Thumb Guide
Plant in enriched garden soil 1-2 weeks after last frost. Leave about 2′ of space between each plant. Fertilize when transplanting and when flowers are about to bloom. Supplement soil with plenty of calcium to prevent bud rot. Water early morning or late evening. Harvest tomatoes as they ripen to bright red and soften slightly. Support growing plants with tomato cages.
