Transplant: Transplant early morning or late afternoon to avoid sun stress. Water the seedling a few hours before transplanting. This reduces shock and makes it easier to move. Remove the bottom few leaves from the stem. Dig a deeper hole so you can bury the stem up to the first set of top leaves. The buried part will grow extra roots, making the plant stronger and more productive. Give it a good soak right after transplanting for at least 2 days placed in filtered light to reduce transplant shock.

Sun: At least 6 hours of sun with afternoon shade

Water: Keep soil moist and not soggy allow soil to dry slightly in between waterings. Water slowly and fully drench the soil with water DO NOT surface water. With this method you can water 3times a week. Bottom water only, avoid getting water on leaves. Mulch helps retain moisture and keep roots cool.

Soil: Well-draining soil with compost or a fertilizer

Fertilizer: Fertilize every 2-3 weeks. During the growing stages high nitrogen is recommended but when flowers begin to form you can switch to high phosphorus and potassium. During the flowering period banana tea can be used for similar results.

Space: If placed in grow bags 7 gallons are great. The smallest will be 5 gallons but remember the smaller the space the smaller the root system the less fruit.

Pruning: Remove suckers (side shoots) below first flower cluster. Stake or cage for support.

Harvest: After transplanting harvest should be expected 60 days give or take 2 weeks. When fully pink and slightly soft. Pick often to keep plant producing. Bonus tip for the sweetest tasting tomatoes refrain from watering for at least 4-5 days (stressed plant) and pick when sun is hottest in the day.
