How to Grow Lemon Boy Hybrid Tomatoes from Seed
In cooler regions, Begin sowing tomato plants in a seed-starting tray indoors, in a warm location or under grow lights. Sow seeds in a soilless seed starting mix that helps start the young plants’ growth.
First, plant seeds 1/4" deep in a container with 2-3 seeds in each cell. Keep the top layer of soil moist, rather than soaking through to the bottom.
Germination will take 7-21 days. Once your seedlings have sprouted, you can remove the plastic top off the tray to let them continue to grow in a sunny area. If placed in the windowsill, be sure to rotate them throughout the day. Once the tomato plants have developed one set of true leaves, harden off established Lemon Boy Hybrids for 1 week, to then transplant outdoors or to larger pots 20-24” deep.
As soon as the soil remains above 50℉ during night temperatures, sow Lemon Boy Hybrid Tomato seeds in spring or late summer. These plants thrive at a temperature range of 65-85℉ and prefer rich, slightly acidic soil that is well-draining with a pH level of 6.0-6.8.
