You should add water to the soil slowly. The soil should always remain moist and if it is too dry then add more water as needed.
Place copper wiring around your garden or plant. This will help drive away any slugs and snails that will nibble at the leaves.
Make sure you grow your tomatoes where sunlight and space is ample. This is important to get the best tomatoes!
Adding mulch to plants will allow the plant to retain moisture and keep the soil warm. Try this if you are struggling to maintain the moisture.
If your tomatoes are cracked that simply means you haven't watered them enough. Remember, the soil must be moist.
At last, the mystery object! Add garlic to the soil where your tomatoes are planted. The garlic will kill off bacteria and give your tomatoes a better taste!
Grow marigold or datura plants near your tomatoes. This will help repel the nematodes (microscopic worms) that can kill your tomatoes.
Add epsom salt to your soil to increase the growth process! This also adds nutrients and repel pests.
Cut the small stems that are next to the main root because these steal the sunlight and do not produce the tomatoes.
Prune the leaves that are at the bottom of your plants. These are the first to be attacked by diseases.
Add a wire cage or stakes around your tomato plants in order to help structure the plant and add security.
Tomatoes do not grow for more than two years on the same land. Remember to alternate the plantation.
