Tips For Growing Large Tomatoes
I have fond memories as a child of watching my parents and grandparents growing large tomatoes every year in their gardens. Having tasty, garden fresh tomatoes to eat at the end of each summer and early fall was a real treat for us. My mother would often can these, even though I didn’t particularly care for them that way. Fresh tomatoes are one of my favorite foods, but I really don’t cared for stewed tomatoes.
Whether you like them fresh, stewed or both, growing tomatoes is so easy almost anyone can do it. If you prefer, you can start growing good tomato plants early, inside the house, rather than using the starter plants that most people like. Growing plants from seed is the hard way to go about it though, and choosing to use the starter plants that are available for purchase would probably be the easier way to go. Wait until they are the right size before planting them outside or else they will not grow properly. They’re easy to transplant and just require plenty of space. Your tomato plants will want to stretch out, so give them enough room to do so comfortably, in a sunny location.
