Growing Celebrity PLUS Tomatoes
Celebrity PLUS tomatoes are relatively easy to grow and care for, making them suitable for gardeners of all skill levels. Follow these guidelines to ensure a healthy, productive crop.
Starting Indoors for Early Planting
For the best results, start Celebrity PLUS seeds indoors about 6-8 weeks before the last frost date in your area.
- Planting Depth: Sow seeds 1/4 inch deep in seed-starting mix and place them in a sunny location or under grow lights.
- Temperature: Keep the soil warm, around 70-75°F to promote germination.
- Transplanting: Once seedlings are about 6-10 inches tall and the threat of frost has passed, transplant them outdoors. Space plants 18-24 inches apart in rows set 3-4 feet apart.
Direct Sowing
If starting later in the season, sow seeds directly in the garden once the soil and weather are warm. Choose a sunny location with well-draining soil, and sow seeds sparingly, covering them lightly with soil.
Care and Maintenance
Following these simple care practices will help ensure your Celebrity PLUS tomatoes grow strong and produce a bountiful harvest.
- Staking or Caging: Given its indeterminate growth habit, this variety will benefit from staking or caging to support the plant and prevent fruit from touching the ground.
- Watering: Water consistently, ensuring that the soil remains evenly moist but not waterlogged. Deep watering is recommended, especially during dry spells, to encourage healthy root growth.
- Fertilizing: Apply a balanced vegetable fertilizer every 3-4 weeks throughout the growing season to support healthy growth and fruit production.
Harvesting and Culinary Use
- Harvest Timing: Celebrity PLUS tomatoes are ready for harvest about 70-80 days after planting. Pick fruits when they are fully colored and firm to the touch.
