Growing Guide

When to Grow

Start seeds indoors 6-10 weeks before the last expected frost. Transplant outdoors after all danger of frost has passed and temperatures don’t drop below 60 F. For precise planting dates, check local frost dates for your region. If you’re not sure how to find your first and last frost dates, consult our blog post "Our Experts Answer Questions, Share Resources."

How to Sow and Plant

Sow seeds 1/8 inch deep in moist potting soil. Maintain a temperature of 70-80 F for optimal germination. Harden off seedlings by gradually exposing them to outdoor conditions over 7-10 days. When planting outdoors, space plants 24 inches apart. Provide support like stakes or cages to accommodate the indeterminate growth habit.

How to Grow

Pink Tiger Tomatoes require full sun, ideally 6-8 hours daily. Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Use a balanced fertilizer or one formulated for tomatoes, feeding plants a couple of times throughout the growing season. Remove suckers (small shoots growing between the main stem and branches) to direct energy toward fruit production. Regularly check for pests and diseases.

How to Save Seeds

  • Most tomatoes are self-pollinating and don't frequently cross; in a garden setting, separating by 25 feet should prevent 99% of cross-pollination. Or you can bag and hand pollinate for 100% purity.
  • On a small scale, seeds may be scooped from the fruits and dried on a paper towel.
  • For larger quantities or cleaner seeds, fermentation for a few days is recommended.
  • Once dry, tomato seed can be stored in a cool, dry, dark place; good seed retains viability for 5 years or more.
