Jätte ekologiska tomatfrön
Sju veckor innan du transplanterar jättestora tomatfrön i trädgården, sätt igång fröna inomhus. Fröna ska täckas med jord med en till två centimeter. Täck fröna med fast jord. Låt inte jorden torka ut. Groning sker vid en jordtemperatur på 24 grader celsius. Det kommer att ta ungefär sex till tio dagar för fröna att gro. Frön måste utsättas för minst femton timmars ljus per dag när de väl har grott. När plantorna har nått fem tum, transplantera dem i torvkrukor på sex cm. Att placera rotklumpen i botten av krukan och fylla den med jord kommer att säkerställa bättre rottillväxt längs stammen.

Vänta tills natttemperaturen är varm innan du transplanterar. Medan frukterna utvecklas, vattna dem djupt och regelbundet. Det rekommenderas att ge dina växter minst en tum vatten per vecka, men de kan behöva mer under varma, torra perioder. Du bör ge dina växter en drink om de verkar vissna under större delen av dagen.
