Planting Guide

Choose the right location
For tomatoes, a sunny spot is non-negotiable, as they require 6 to 8 hours of sunlight per day. They prefer slightly acidic to neutral soil (pH 6.0 to 7.0) that is rich and drains well. Consistent watering is key to prevent blossom end rot‚Äîaim for at least 1 inch of water per week, more in hot weather. Tomatoes benefit from regular feeding once they start to set fruit. Provide support with cages or stakes, and prune as necessary to encourage air circulation and reduce disease risk. Monitor for tomato hornworms and other pests.
Prepare an appropriate hole
Choose a pot that is 1-2 times larger than the current pot, ensuring there is adequent drainage to prevent waterlogging roots. Plan on repotting every 3-5 years.
Use fertile soil
Choose soil rich in nutrients and with good drainage to support root growth.
Plant at the correct depth
Plant at the same depth as in the pot, keeping the top of the root ball level with the soil.
Care and watering
Water the plant appropriately, keeping the soil moist but not too wet.
