Good Pizza. Don't over water or over crowd your tomatoes this year!

I am doing really good. Almost have decided on which seeds to plant this year. I am 3 weeks ahead of last year. Maybe this weekend I will soak the first seeds. Guess, I will be using the MacCoy method of pruning again this year. Maybe I will try a few plants belt high mega. I am not worried yet that I am too late...when the tomato plants finally hit the garden..they will be going into super soil.

Their are two meathods to growing these gaint tomatoes. I like the first truss meathod because it works for me. Many others will wait till their plant are 4'-5' tall before they set their tomatoes. You shouldn't just try one meathod you should try both meathods to see witch one works best for you !!! Good luck

I found if i don't plant them deep enough that the seed coat will stay on.i plant them about 1/4" deep.
