It is really a wonderful activity to grow tomatoes around your house.
You can retain the tomato on the plant itself till it turns fully ripe.
But when you are buying them from the stores or in the market you have to sometimes pick up the raw ones.
The ripe ones are not always available.
The following is the procedure of growing tomatoes around your house.
Select a pot that will allow the excessive water to drain away.
Then fill the pot with compost.
Add about an inch of seeds into it.
To allow the seeds to germinate, layer the pot with a plastic cover.
Then remove it later and pour water into it till it penetrates the bottom.
After a few days you will see a small growth.
Keep the pot under the sunlight so that it grows rapidly.
When you observe a proper growth, shift the plant to a new pot.
Possibly plant it besides a shrub or near a tree so that it is protected from the strong wind.
Provide the essential nutrients for the normal growth.
Use fertilizers almost after every month and water them at least twice a day.
Wait for about 4-6 weeks to let the tomatoes grow in full shape.
If the temperature falls to 50 degrees Fahrenheit then cover it up.
