General Tips:

• Start seeds indoors: Sow seeds in a well-lit, warm location (around 70°F) 4-6 weeks before the last frost date in your area. Use a seed starting mix and keep the soil moist but not soggy.
• Transplant seedlings: Once seedlings have developed 2-3 sets of true leaves, harden them off for a week before transplanting outdoors. Choose a sunny location with well-drained soil and amend it with compost or manure before planting.
• Spacing: Space plants 2-3 feet apart in rows 3-4 feet apart.
• Support: Provide support for the indeterminate vines using cages, stakes, or trellises.
• Watering: Water regularly, especially during hot weather. Aim for deep watering to encourage root growth.
• Mulching: Apply a layer of mulch around the base of the plants to retain moisture and suppress weeds.
• Harvesting: Start harvesting tomatoes when they are fully ripe and have reached their desired color (red, yellow, or black for Brandywine).
