      • Depth: Sow seeds at a depth of about 1/4 inch (0.6 cm).
      • Soil: Use a well-draining soil mix with equal parts garden soil, coco peat, and compost.
      • Watering: Keep the soil moist, but not waterlogged.
      • Light: Place the seedlings in a location that receives at least 6-8 hours of sunlight daily.

    • Base Fertilizer: At the time of transplanting, mix organic compost and well-rotted manure into the soil.

    • Growing Stage:

      • Nitrogen (N): In the early stages, use fertilizers rich in nitrogen for leaf development.
      • Phosphorus (P): For better root development, use phosphorus-based fertilizers like bone meal.
      • Potassium (K): During the fruiting stage, use potassium-rich fertilizers to improve fruit quality and size.
    • Additional Fertilizer: Use a balanced NPK (Nitrogen: Phosphorus: Potassium) fertilizer every 2-3 weeks during the growing season.

    5. Tomato Care Tips

    • Watering: Water consistently and deeply. Avoid overhead watering, which can cause fungal issues. Water at the base of the plant to keep leaves dry.
    • Pruning: Remove lower leaves and suckers (side shoots) to direct more energy to fruit production.
    • Support: Use a trellis or stake to support the plant as it grows, preventing branches from breaking under the weight of the fruit.
    • Mulching: Add mulch around the base of the plant to retain moisture and regulate soil temperature.
