Start tomatoes indoors 6-8 weeks before the last expected frost. Alternately, they can be planted in the garden directly after all danger of frost has passed. Many tomato varieties have long growing seasons so be aware and make sure they have enough time to reach maturity.

Transplant seedlings to the garden when the soil is warm and after there are no more frosts. Harden off seedlings before transplanting.

Tomatoes need at least 6 hours of direct sunlight every day. Do not plant tomatoes in a shady area.

Plant tomatoes at least 2 feet apart so they have space to grow outwards. They will need to be staked or caged so they can stand upright. It is best to provide support before they get too tall so you don't damage the roots or branches doing it later. The fruits need to be kept off the ground – they will rot if they are not held up.

As the tomato plants grow, pinch or cut off the lower branches to focus the tomatoes growth upwards instead of outwards. Pinch off suckers that grow between the branches and main stem. This is to assist in fruit production as opposed to foliage production. It also prevents diseases from spreading from the soil to the foliage.

Growing Tomatoes in Containers: A large pot with drainage holes is necessary. Without good drainage, the roots will rot and kill the plant. Use a good well-draining potting mix. Choose a determinate tomato variety. A dwarf variety is best for containers. Only plant one tomato per pot. Put tomato plants in a spot where they will get 6-8 hours of sun per day. Water regularly without letting soil get soggy.

Determinate vs. Indeterminate: This designation refers to the growth rate of the tomato plant. Determinate tomato plants grow to a specific height and then they stop. They also mature quicker, going from flower to fruit faster than indeterminate. These plants tend to be smaller and are great for small spaces or container gardening. They are easy to control and work well with tomato cages or being staked.

Indeterminate tomato plants don't have a specific height and many will grow wildly, sometimes up to 8ft tall if they are not pruned. The branches grow out horizontally as well, and if they are not cut back, they will turn into a jungle of tomato vines. Older varieties, including most heirlooms, are indeterminate. They produce wonderful flavorful fruits, though they often take longer to mature since the plant is expending a lot of energy into the vines, instead of the fruit.

Inspiring and well-written
This is a very interesting book written by some Harvard profs. They did a large national survey of innovative businesses and their leaders. The book posits that innovative people follow five skills: associating, questioning, observing, networking, and experimenting. These skills can be found at the individual or organizational level. The idea is that most people have these skills in their DNA and can bring them out with some practice. There are a lot of interesting and inspiring examples like Steve Jobs and Jeff Bezos. Although this book seems like a self-help type book with a lot of hype, it has an academic underpinning. Any organization that is interested in promoting innovation could benefit from encouraging these 5 skills. If you are interested in innovation or creativity in business or any organization that produces something, you will like this book. The books is a little distracting to read because it has sidebars all through it giving interesting examples that break up reading concentration. Aside from that, it is a well-written book that is easy and enjoyable to read. I enjoyed the book greatly and found it to be inspiring.

Great read and research. But what about daily application for regular people?
The research piece behind this book might be the next thing I read, as I'm intrigued by the academic rigor applied. The reveal and living examples of the five skills - questioning, networking, experimenting, observing and associating - are tangible and approachable given their articulation through well-known and highly visible entrepreneurs running innovative companies. There's much to be gleaned by looking at the way these people behave and, even through simple emulation, enhancing one's own skills. My only real disappointment with the book is its limited approach to practical, daily application for those not yet at the top of the tree. It's rather a different kettle of fish for the innovation-minded, but stuck in bureaucracy, worker who wants to make things better, is still motivated, and hasn't been crushed by the machine. How does that person actively innovate? And, in some cases, get away with it? This book (or an accompanying volume) focussing on daily, in-work, innovation would be useful.

An exceptional five stars out of five
Few qualities separate inordinately successful entrepreneurs from the rest of the pack than the ability to innovate. Many have debated whether individuals are born with this quality or whether it can be nurtured. In The Innovator's DNA, Jeff Dyer, Hal Gregersen and Clayton Christensen explain that while genetics play a role, innovation is most certainly a skill that can be learned. In particular, the authors introduce and expound upon five "discovery skills" found in the leaders of some of the most innovative companies in the world: (1) associating, (2) questioning, (3) observing, (4) networking and (5) experimenting. Each discovery skill is accompanied by real-world examples and pragmatic exercises that make the book unusually valuable in an age where copious books on change, leadership and innovation overwhelm the already-overwhelmed executive. I give The Innovator's DNA an exceptional five stars out of five. The authors present a very readable book and provide concrete exercises for developing innovative skills. Using the principles provided in the book, I created a folder on my computer that I call my "Innovation Room." I use this to track progress as I work through various exercises and as I take time to ponder about how to apply innovative solutions to extant problems in Utah. This book was and will continue to be useful to me, and is recommended as a must-read for those interested in adding rare innovative attributes to their arsenal of problem-solving and decision-making skills. *NOTE: The preceding text is taken verbatim from my short book review printed in the June 2012 edition of Utah Business.

It's Ok
It's an ok book and it definitely has some interesting things going on it, but it also has those "ask yourself" these questions if you can be an innovator which is where every human being ponders and talks themselves into having the type of characterisitic the question asks if they have and that makes that human being feel the best about themselves. Bottom line the book has some good info, is it better than say reading the biography of each innovator that they cover (if one is available)....I can't say that it is.
