FAQ

Which vegetables are best to grow together?

Growing tomatoes and peppers together is excellent because they both like similar temperatures and soil conditions. They work well together as tomatoes need heat to ripen and peppers need lower temperatures for optimal flavor. You can try planting them together by starting seeds indoors six weeks before transplanting them outdoors. After the weather has warmed up, you can transplant the pepper plants and tomatoes outside.


When should you plant flowers?

Planting flowers in spring is easier when the temperature is lower and the soil remains moist. If you live in colder climates, it is best to plant flowers after the first frost. The ideal temperature for growing plants indoors is around 60 degrees Fahrenheit.
