番茄成长记

Step 1: Soak my seeds in the warm water for 5－7 hours. After that, dry them in the sun for 2 hours, and then soak them in warm water at $45° \mathrm{C}－50° \mathrm{C}$ for four hours.
Step 2: Plant me in the soil about 10 cm deep, and then water me. The best temperature is between $15° \mathrm{C}$ and $28° \mathrm{C}$.
Step 3: About two weeks later, a tomato plant will grow out of the soil.
Step 4: Water the tomato plant once a week. After two or three months, I will grow flowers.
