Product description
kamatis (tomato) is a particular variety of tomato with a flat shape and a rigged surface. The skin is thick and glossy, with a light red color. It is very resistant to the lack of water and to high temperatures, where it grows luxuriantly.
How to sow/plant seeds:
To plant tomato seeds indoors, start 6-8 weeks before the last frost date, using a sterile seed-starting mix, planting seeds about 1/4 inch deep, and maintaining a warm, moist environment until germination.
1. Timing and Location:
Start indoors:
Begin planting tomato seeds indoors about 6-8 weeks before the last expected frost date for your area.
The average frost date is around mid-May. Therefore, you should start planting indoors around mid-March.
Location:
Choose a location with bright, indirect light or supplement with grow lights.
2. Preparing the Seed-Starting Mix:
Use a sterile mix: Avoid using garden soil, as it can harbor diseases and drain poorly.
Moisten the mix: Dampen the seed-starting mix thoroughly, but don't saturate it.
Container: Use small containers or seed trays.
3. Planting the Seeds:
Planting depth: Plant tomato seeds about 1/4 inch deep.
Spacing: Place seeds about 2-3 inches apart.
Multiple seeds: Plant 2-3 seeds per cell or container, as not all seeds may germinate.
4. Germination:
Maintain warmth: Tomatoes germinate best at temperatures between 75-85°F (24-30°C).
Moisture: Keep the soil consistently moist, but not soggy.
Cover the tray: Cover the seed tray with a plastic wrap or lid to help retain moisture.
Remove cover: Once the seedlings emerge, remove the cover and provide adequate light.
5. Seedling Care:
Light: Ensure seedlings receive adequate light, either from a bright window or grow lights.
Watering: Water seedlings regularly, but avoid overwatering.
Fertilizing: Once seedlings have a few sets of true leaves, start fertilizing with a diluted liquid fertilizer.
Hardening off: Before transplanting outside, gradually acclimate seedlings to outdoor conditions by exposing them to cooler temperatures and sunlight for increasing periods.
6. Transplanting: Choose a sunny location: Select a sunny location in your garden with well-drained soil.
Prepare the soil: Amend the soil with compost or other organic matter.
Transplant seedlings: Transplant seedlings into the garden after the last frost date and when the soil is warm.
Water thoroughly: Water the newly transplanted seedlings well.
