Did you know you can grow new tomato plants from its suckers? This is a great way to have infinite tomato plants from just one plant! Here is how you do it: 1. Identify Suckers: Look for small shoots emerging from the leaf axils (the angle between the stem and a leaf). They’re typically 2–4 inches long when ideal for propagation. 2. Remove Suckers: Use clean, sharp scissors or pruners to cut the sucker from the plant. Choose healthy, vigorous ones for best results. 3. Prepare for Rooting: - Remove the lower leaves, leaving only the top 2–4 leaves. - Optionally, dip the cut end in rooting hormone to encourage faster root growth (not mandatory). 4. Root in Water or Soil: - Water: Place the sucker in a jar of water, submerging the cut end. Keep it in a bright, indirect light area and change the water every few days. Roots should appear in 1–2 weeks. - Soil: Plant the sucker in a small pot with moist, well-draining potting mix. Cover with a plastic bag to retain humidity and place in indirect light. Roots typically form in 1–2 weeks. 5. Transplant: Once roots are 1–2 inches long (for water-rooted) or the cutting feels anchored (for soil-rooted), transplant into a larger pot or garden bed with rich, well-draining soil. 6. Care: Water regularly, provide full sun (6–8 hours daily), and support the plant as it grows. Treat it like a regular tomato seedling. Notes: - Suckers root easily because they’re actively growing tissue, often producing new plants faster than seeds (2–3 weeks to establish vs. 6–8 weeks for seed-grown plants). - The new plant will be a clone of the parent, inheriting its exact traits (e.g., variety, flavor). - Best time to take suckers is early in the growing season when the plant is healthy and actively growing.
