First, sow tiny pots or seed trays with light potting soil that drains well. Second, sow the Roma tomato seeds ¼ inch deep. Cover with a thin layer of soil and water lightly. Position the pots in a warm location, between 70–80°F. Tomatoes need to be warm to germinate, so if your house is chilly, use a heat mat.

Once they have germinated, transplant them to a south window or grow lights for 12–16 hours a day. Water sparingly but not excessively. Too much water causes root rot, so water only when the soil surface feels dry. Can try the desi variety also for tomato kashi

In a few weeks, your seedlings will have two or three sets of leaves. Plant them out when they are around 6 inches tall. If you seed in small pots, transfer them to big pots to grow deeper roots.

Prior to planting your Roma tomatoes outdoors, they must acclimate to the outdoors. About one week before transplanting, set them outdoors for a few hours a day, increasing more time each day.

When the threat of frost is over, move your Roma tomatoes to an east garden bed or big pots. Select a garden bed with proper drainage and at least six hours of direct sun exposure daily. Plant the holes deep enough to surround the stems up to the first leaf node. This gives the maximum amount of roots to develop.

Water them frequently but make sure the soil is always moist. Mulch over soil where seeds are planted in order not to lose water and weeds. Support the growing tomatoes with stakes or cages so they won’t touch the ground.

Once every 70–80 days, the Roma tomatoes will be ripe for picking. Pick them when they are hard and deep red. Your homegrown tomatoes are now ready to be used in sauces, and salads, or picked fresh from the vine!

These simple steps will yield a bountiful Roma tomato harvest and the satisfaction of enjoying your own homegrown fruit. Happy gardening!
