The next most critical factors to growing tomatoes from seeds are temperature, humidity, nourishment and light.

Always utilize a "starter" seedling potting mix as it will generally already contain the right nutrient balance and be finely separated to ensure the little seeds can push through the soil and sprout correctly. Pot them as you would any other seed an in. Under the outer surface of the soil in a tiny pot or seedling tray.

Make sure you mist spray them an each day and keep the soil at approximately 27C (80F) to prompt growth. Guarantee they receive at least 5 hours sunlight each day. Popping them on the window sill works very well.

After you see the 1st 3 or 4 leaves, it39;s time to smoothly prick the tiny plants out of the starter pot and place every one into maturity separate larger pot to prompt root expansion. You can start placing them outside for a few hours each day to toughen them up.

When the last frost has passed it39;s time to transplant them into your prepared garden bed or last pot.
