Most tomato plants are usually started inside a greenhouse in late summer or early autumn before the first spring frost. The plant roots are usually started out of pots in pots of potting soil and then transferred outdoors a little higher up the grower. When roots have grown a little deeper in the soil the seeds are planted into medium-sized containers of organic potting soil. Seedling tomatoes do not need much encouragement in order to grow. When growing seedlings indoors, try to grow them with good drainage in a sunny spot away from harsh sunlight. Planting tomato plants indoors will help prevent the rotting of tomato seeds, especially in areas of high humidity where the environment is not too dry.
