Seed should be sown in January, in hot-beds, or in boxes, which 
must be placed in a sheltered spot, or near windows. In March they 
can be sown in the open ground. Tomatoes are generally sown too 
thick, and become too crowded when two to three inches high, which 
makes the plants too thin and spindly. It' they are transplanted when 
two to three inches high, about three inches apart each way, they will 
become short and sturdy, and will not suffer when planted out into 
the open ground. Plant them from three to four feet apart. Some 
varieties can be planted closer; for instance for the Extra Early, 
which is of very dwarfish habit, two and a half feet apart is enough.
