When to plant tomato seedlings in 2025
Tomato seedlings are planted 60-70 days before planting in the ground.
This rule is relevant for all regions. Moreover, it does not matter where you will plant the seedlings later - in open ground or in a greenhouse.
Secondly, it is necessary to take into account that tomatoes are early, mid-season and late.
Late tomatoes are planted earlier. These are tall varieties that take a long time to develop.
The optimal time for sowing seedlings of such tomatoes is the end of February.
Determinate varieties are planted for seedlings at the beginning of March (from 1 to 8), and in the ground at the end of May.
Dwarf tomatoes should be planted as seedlings from March 8 to 15, and in the ground in mid-May.
It is recommended to plant low-growing tomatoes for seedlings from March 15 to 30, and in the ground in June.
