Gardener’s Notes: Tomatoes grow best in warm weather. Start seed indoors 6-8 weeks before last spring frost. Grow in sunny window or under plant lights. Before planting in garden, acclimate seedlings to outdoor conditions over several days. Transplant to outdoor conditions over several days. Transplant into fertile, well-drained soil when temperatures stay above 15C (60F). Stake or cage plants when small. Water regularly when fruit appear. Pick ripe tomatoes regularly.
