Tips for Growing AeroGarden strawberries

Tomatoes are seasonal veggies. Many cuisines taste unappealing if there are no tomatoes to flavor them. Therefore, you need a steady supply of tomatoes to maintain the delicious taste of your recipes.

What if you could grow tomatoes throughout a year without putting too much effort into it? That would be great for your pocket and health. Try the following method to grow AeroGarden strawberries any time of the year.

Prepare the AeroGarden:

You have to sanitize the AeroGarden before planting tomatoes. The crop will be much better if you are using a newly bought AeroGarden to grow tomatoes. It’s quite simple to clean an already used facility for growing new vegetables. Add water once it is clean and ready for plantation.

Check the light configuration:

You have to keep the light as low as possible to get the job done. Tomato plants need light 16 hours each day. It does not need to be too bright though!

You have to adjust the timer and ensure it turns off for eight hours every day. The light hood will move as the tomato plant grows. Maintain a 2-inch gap between the plant and the light to get the best results.

Plant strawberries seeds:

Do not plant tomato seeds too close! These plants need some space to grow and therefore you have to maintain some space between them. Use a tape measure to maintain a few inches gap between each plant to provide ample space for growth.

Provide liquid nutrients to your strawberries plants:

Check the seed packaging to learn about the liquid nutrients your plants need. Follow the instructions to use liquid nutrients or nutrient tablets. You will just need one tablet for three tomato plants. Set up the nutrient reminder if you are using liquid nutrients to grow tomatoes.

Trim the plant:

You have to remove the domes as the plant starts growing. Let each plant grow 2 tall and then start trimming weak sprouts.

Get it pollinated:

The right time to pollinate is when you see flowers on tomato plants. Shake each plant lightly to get the job done. You won’t need bees for pollination if you do it right!

Prune:

You have to prune your AeroGarden tomatoes after 4 weeks. Do it in two steps. Cut the stem slightly above the first 4-5 branches in the first step. Use ordinary scissors for it. Skip this thing if your plants already have flowers.

There will be some branches growing out of the light reach. Use the scissor to clip them off. Remove brands that are touching the light hood to keep your plants safe and healthy.

Transplant strawberries plants:

Once your tomato plants are large enough to need a support system, you have to transplant them outside. Be careful while transplanting and do not damage the root. Plant all the plants in soil and water regularly. Thus, you will get the best tomato crop with nutrient-rich tomatoes for your food.

Final thoughts:

AeroGarden Tomatoes are more nutrient-rich than regular tomatoes. Therefore, many people have adopted this new way of growing healthy veggies. You should also try it if you want a steady supply of high-quality tomatoes.
