When and how to sow san Marzano tomato?

Sowing: from February to April on a warm layer (20 °) or in indoor buckets or heated greenhouse, in a fine seedling soil. Tomatoes need a minimum of 20°C to germinate.
Bury your tomato seeds at 1 cm and then cover with seedling soil. Water your potting soil with a sprayer to keep it moist but not soggy. Place your terrine near a window to prevent your seedlings from spinning upwards to look for light.
Transplant in place when frosts are no longer to be feared and the seedlings reach 12 to 15 cm in rich, loose and healthy soil. Distance: 70 cm between rows and 50 cm on the sunny exposure line.
Put the stakes in place before starting planting. Water abundantly on the foot once a week to avoid the development of diseases.
