How-To Plant Tomatoes

Garden Fundamentals

Plant Tomatoes Deep, Deep, Deep

Each Bonnie tomato label urges you to plant tomatoes deep, so that a full 2/3 of the plant is underground. That means that if you buy a 10-inch tall plant, all but the top three to four inches is buried. Why? Because the plant will have a better, stronger root system. Better roots mean better tomatoes.
