THE RIGHT TOMATO CARE
- Give the plants enough hold and also fix large plants at the top.
- Meat your tomatoes regularly. In the leaf axils there are so-called miser drives, which take up a lot of space and reduce the quality of the fruit. If you want to harvest a lot of fruit, constant picking is a must.
TIP! An even water supply promotes fruit formation! - Remove the lower leaves of the plant.
- Cut off the top of the tomato plant after the 5th inflorescence.
- Choose a sunny location.
- Don’t plant tomatoes too close together.
