The only thing you need to do is find some pots, dirt and some tomato slices. It’s easy! Your house will be full of the most delicious fresh produce in no time at all.
Follow these simple steps to get these super beneficial friends in your garden:
First, take four slices of tomatoes. They should be about an inch thick so that the seeds can get a good implant in their new home!
In a large pile of potting soil, arrange the slices so they lie on top.
Push the dirt as deep into each hole as you can, then cover it up with more soil. Make sure that there’s enough on top so your tomato plants have room to grow!
Water thoroughly and regularly.
After a week, expect the first few plants to start sprouting.
