Tomato planting 101! Here’s my method.

🌱 How to Plant Tomatoes Like a Pro (Without All the Fuss)

Alright, tomato fans, it’s planting time! Let’s get those tomatoes in the ground with a no-nonsense approach that sets them up for greatness.

Step 1: Dig Deep and Keep the Epsom Salt on Standby

Start by digging a nice, deep hole for your tomato plant. But hold on! No Epsom salt just yet. We’re saving that special treat for later.

Step 2: Depth Check and Tomato Trimming

To get the depth just right, plop the plant in the hole to see how it fits. Got it? Great. Now, pull it back out, and here’s where things get real. Snip off any branches below the spot where the last branch touches the ground. This trim job encourages your plant to focus on what matters: growing big, juicy tomatoes.

Step 3: Plant Placement and the Secret Ingredient

Once the hole is the perfect depth, sprinkle in a bit of Epsom salt. Now, place the tomato plant back in, firm up the soil around it, and boom—you’ve set the stage for a fruitful season.

🎉 The Finish Line: Your Tomato Plant is Officially Home!

Congratulations! Your tomato is officially in the ground, ready to stretch those roots and make you proud. Now, it’s all about giving it some love, a little water, and some patience.

Happy planting, and may your tomatoes grow tall and taste delicious!
