Sow seeds indoors 6-8 weeks before last spring frost. Plant seeds ¼ inch deep. Seeds will emerge in 7-10 days. Transplant to garden after danger of last frost has passed. Be sure to harden off tomatoes for one week before planting in the garden. When transplanting, allow for 1-2 feet between plants and 3-4 feet between rows.
