Starting Tomatoes Indoors From Seeds

 I decided to try my hand at growing my tomatoes from seeds. I used a two cup method. Check the video to see more.

Basically I used two plastic cups. I put gravel in one of them. That's the bottom cups and absorbs the water from the main cup. In the top cup, I drilled four drainage holes so that water doesn't sit at the bottom of the cup after I water them. This would cause root rot.

I added seed starter about half way up the cup and then planted two seeds per cup. As the tomato plant grows, the stem gets taller. When that happens, I'll add more soil. The reason I do this is because the stem will actually shoot more roots out when it's in the dirt. This will make the plant stronger, and you'll get a better yield.
