Begin Flowering your Tomatoes. Flowering is one of the trickiest parts of how to grow tomatoes indoors. You will need to be familiar with how to force flowering in your plants. Some tomatoes produce fruit in 60 days and others take up to 80 days, beginning from the time you force flowering.
Tomato plants that receive less than 8 hours of sunlight a day produce fewer and smaller fruits. Tomatoes thrive in full sun and fertile, well-drained, slightly acidic soil with a pH between 6.0 and 6.8. For healthy growth, tomato plants require at least 8 hours of direct sunlight a day. However, the hours of sunlight do not need to be consecutive. This means that tomatoes can be grown successfully in both morning and afternoon sun as long as the number of hours adds up to 8 or more.
