Tomato Tip: Proper Watering Techniques

Tomatoes require consistent and deep watering, particularly during hot and dry weather. To ensure your plants receive enough moisture, water them at the base directly, avoiding the foliage. Using a soaker hose or drip irrigation system can be beneficial, as it delivers water directly to the roots and reduces the risk of fungal diseases. Additionally, it is essential to water early in the morning to allow foliage to dry before evening, reducing the chances of disease. Remember, overwatering can lead to root rot, so monitor the soil’s moisture levels and water accordingly.
