| Plant care | Sow indoors 5-7 weeks before transplanting. Keep evenly moist through germination. Transplant hardened-off seedlings and bury a good part of the stem after last frost. Enrich soil with mature compost. Deep fertile soil with abundant phosphorus is essential for early yields. Water moderately, allowing soil surface to dry between waterings. Use mulch to conserve soil moisture and control weeds. Harvest ripe fruits while still firm. When frost threatens, ripen remaining fruit indoors. Indeterminate varieties of tomatoes are also called "vining" tomatoes. They will grow and produce fruit until killed by frost and can reach heights of up to 10 feet although 6 feet is considered the norm. They will bloom, set new fruit and ripen fruit all at the same time throughout the growing season. They require substantial caging and/or staking for support and pruning and the removal of suckers is practiced by many but is not mandatory. Store seeds in cool, dry dark conditions. | |
