Turkish tomato seeds

1- Seed preparation Choose good tomato seeds, preferably soak them in lukewarm water for 6–8 hours to speed up germination. 2- Soil preparation The best medium for germination: a mixture of peat moss + perlite + vermiculite or lightweight well-draining soil. Sanitize the soil (by sun drying or spraying with a light fungicide) to prevent diseases. 3- Planting Place the seeds at a depth of only 0.5 – 1 cm. Leave a small distance between each seed (or use seed trays). Cover them with a light layer of soil or peat moss. 4- Watering Lightly spray water to moisten the soil without flooding. Maintain consistent moisture (not dry and not waterlogged). 5- Temperature and light The ideal temperature for germination: 22 – 28°C. Germination begins within 5–10 days. Place the seedlings in a sunny spot or under artificial lighting. 6- Seedling care When the seedling reaches 10–15 cm in height (after 3–4 weeks), transfer it to seedling bags or the ground. Fertilize with a balanced fertilizer (NPK 20-20-20) in light doses. 7- Transplanting to permanent land After 30–40 days (and the appearance of 4–6 true leaves), transplant the seedlings into the field or large pots. Distance between plants: 40–50 cm.
