I usually pot up 1-2x before planting outside, and bury the stem a bit each time. Sometimes just 1/2", sometimes a few inches. It helps if my plants might have gotten a little leggy from lack of light, and this can make the stem stronger. Sometimes I do it because I'm growing in pots and burying the stem can help prevent them from growing 7ft tall, lol.I've read that when you transplant your tomatoes outside, you should dig the hole so a certain length of the stem above the roots is buried. Does anyone here do this and if so how much stem do you bury?
They can grow roots anywhere along those little fine hairs you see on the stem. If a branch breaks off, stick it into soil or a cup of water and BAM! you have a new tomato plant
