- Soil requirements: Cherry tomatoes thrive in well-draining, loamy soil with a pH level between 6.0 and 6.8. Enrich the soil with organic matter such as compost to provide essential nutrients.
- Sunlight needs: These seeds require full sun, which means they need at least 6-8 hours of direct sunlight per day to grow optimally.
- Watering requirements: Water the plants consistently, keeping the soil evenly moist but not waterlogged. Water deeply once or twice a week, depending on weather conditions, and avoid overhead watering to prevent fungal diseases.
- Planting season: The best time to plant cherry tomato seeds is in the spring after the last frost date. In warmer climates, they can also be planted in late summer for a fall harvest.
- Depth and spacing: Plant the seeds about 1/4 inch deep and space them 24-36 inches apart to allow for proper air circulation and growth.
- Germination time: Cherry tomato seeds typically germinate within 5-10 days under optimal conditions.
- Maturity time: Cherry tomatoes usually reach maturity and are ready for harvest in about 55-70 days after planting.
- Harvesting time: The best time to harvest cherry tomatoes is in the early morning when the temperatures are cooler, which helps maintain their firmness and flavor.
- Harvesting tips: Gently twist or cut the tomatoes from the vine when they are fully colored and slightly soft to the touch. Use clean, sharp scissors or pruners to avoid damaging the plant. Store harvested tomatoes at room temperature and avoid refrigerating them to preserve their flavor.
