Now, if you love tomatoes, maybe it’s time that you start grow them yourselves.

Below are four smart methods of growing an endless supply of tomatoes.

1. Bury tomato slices

One way of growing tomatoes in your home is by cutting one tomato into slices and placing them on top of a container filled with potting soil. Once you do this, cover the slices with more soil and make sure you keep it moist. It will take around a week or two for them to sprout. Once this happens, find the strongest sprouts and put them in a separate pot in order to provide even more space for growing. Check on them every few weeks and enjoy your home-grown tomatoes.
