Planting & Care
Start seeds indoors 6-8 weeks before the last frost date. Sow seeds 1/4 inch deep in seed-starting mix and keep soil warm (70-80°F) and consistently moist. Once seedlings have two sets of true leaves, transplant them into larger pots or harden them off for garden planting after the danger of frost has passed. Provide support such as cages or stakes to keep plants upright and fruits off the ground.
Water regularly to maintain even soil moisture, and mulch to conserve water and suppress weeds. Fertilize with a balanced tomato fertilizer according to package instructions. Harvest fruits when they are fully colored and slightly soft to the touch. Baby Roma tomatoes are determinate, meaning they set fruit over a concentrated period, making them ideal for canning and preserving.
