Planting & Care

Start Ace 55 tomato seeds indoors 6–8 weeks before the last expected frost date. Sow seeds about 1/4 inch deep in a sterile seed-starting mix. Keep the soil consistently moist and maintain a temperature of 70–80°F for reliable germination. Once seedlings have two sets of true leaves, transplant them into larger pots or harden them off for the garden.

Plant outdoors after all danger of frost has passed, spacing plants 24–36 inches apart. Provide support such as cages or stakes to keep fruit off the ground. Water regularly, aiming for about 1–2 inches per week, and feed with a balanced fertilizer according to package directions. Mulching helps retain moisture and suppress weeds.
