Cultivation Advice 

• Choose well-drained, loamy soil with a slightly acidic to neutral pH (6.0-7.0).
• Amend the soil with organic matter like compost for improved fertility and water retention.
• Start Mountain Magic F1 tomato seeds indoors 6-8 weeks before the last expected frost.

• Maintain consistent soil moisture, allowing the soil to dry slightly between waterings.
• Use mulch around the base of the plants to retain moisture and control weeds.
• Apply a balanced, all-purpose fertilizer at planting and periodically throughout the growing season.
• Due to potential heavy fruiting, provide support such as staking or caging to prevent sprawling and ensure air circulation.
• Prune suckers and lower leaves to improve air circulation and focus energy on fruit production.
• Regularly inspect for common tomato pests such as aphids, hornworms, or whiteflies.
• Utilize natural predators or employ organic pest control methods.
