TOMATOES 
of All Types 
Tomatoes should be started indoors and those unable to 
do this should purchase plants. The plants may be set in 
the garden when danger of frost is over. It is important 
to give them a quick start after transplanting by frequent 
watering and fertilizing. They should be sprayed with 
bordeaux mixture to prevent disease, Rotecide non-poison. 
Hot sun is needed to ripen tomatoes and plenty of water to 
keep them growing. If trained to stakes or trellises they 
will ripen sooner.

plants, one ounce.
