RELIABLE SEEDS

For early Tomatoes start plants in hotbeds during March, sowing the seed jinch 
deep in drills 6 inches apart. They should be replanted at least once in the frames 
before the final planting outdoors in May, after all danger of frost is past. 
It is unwise to set plants closer than 3 to 4 feet apart each way, as the 
vines grow vigorously and soon cover the entire space. In gardens where 
space is limited and only a few plants grown, we recommend 
the use of tomato supports.
