If you want tomatoes grown in a greenhouse or open ground to please you with a harvest, it is worth remembering (or learning) several rules that experienced gardeners follow in the process of growing this crop.
So, tomatoes are exactly the plant that does not like either drought or excess water.
The best combination for this crop is soil moisture under the bush at 85-90%, and air humidity at about 50%, in simple terms, so that the soil is sufficiently moist and the area around is warm and dry.
You can tell that a plant needs moisture by its appearance.
In this case, the tomato leaves will droop and curl, and the buds and ovaries may begin to fall off.
If excess moisture is detected, tomatoes become susceptible to disease, and unripe fruits burst and turn black.
So what watering regime will allow you to avoid such problems? After the seedlings are planted in the ground, they should be watered well and left alone for 2-3 days or even more.
After the specified period of time, it is worth watering the bushes generously 1-2 times a week. At the same time, do not lose sight of the variety, size of tomatoes and weather conditions.
