A Mistake That Will Leave You Without a Harvest: What Else You Might Not Know About Watering Tomatoes
Summer residents experience adventures with tomatoes painfully, regardless of whether they are seedlings or already fruiting bushes.
When the bushes have already been transplanted, taken root and will soon begin to bloom, it is too early to relax.
Any little thing, like a mistake made while watering, can ruin everything.
We will tell you what mistake most summer residents make when watering tomatoes, forgetting that this crop suffers from numerous diseases.
Due to errors in watering, the development of tomato bushes can be disrupted. This is manifested in yellowing and drying tops.
How not to water
The sprinkler method of watering tomatoes is not suitable. For example, you should not install irrigation systems for this in the morning and water the beds during the day on top of the leaves.
If there is also extreme heat, then under the scorching rays of the sun the drops will cause burns on the leaves.
If watering techniques are regularly violated, seedlings may die, and after burns, the risk of developing late blight only increases.
The correct technique for watering tomatoes is to water them at the roots.
It is best to use a watering can with minimal splashing of water.
