Indoor Tomato Seedlings: Leggy Growth Requires Outdoor Light

Solanum lycopersicum: 3.5-Foot Tall, No Fruit = Insufficient Light

March-sown tomatoes in 18-inch pots, Miracle-Gro soil and fertilizer sticks = nitrogen-fueled vegetative growth, no reproductive trigger.

Windows filter UV; intensity too low. Tomatoes need 10+ hours direct sun. Fluorescent lights work only if very close (2-4 inches) and 16+ hours/day.

18-inch pots are excellent. Just get them outside.
