In the final third of summer, gardeners should follow a certain strategy for watering tomatoes.
It is still not worth performing the procedure during the daytime, since many August days (as well as July days) can be quite hot.
Therefore, daytime watering can lead to rapid evaporation of water and serious problems with the garden crop.
Based on the above, it becomes clear that during the third summer month, it is advisable to water tomatoes either in the morning or in the evening hours.
But what time of day is more suitable for the procedure? This question was answered by the expert of the online publication "BelNovosti", scientist-agronomist and landscape designer Anastasia Kovrizhnykh.
When is the best time to water tomatoes in August
The specialist emphasizes: during this period, it is advisable to replenish the moisture deficit in the tomato bed only in the morning.
The fact is that morning watering will have a positive effect on the condition of the plant that has “survived” the night.
But in August the air temperature at night can be quite low!
Using warm water in the morning helps warm up the soil. As a result, the garden crop receives great benefits.
Important reminder: watering of tomato bushes should be done exactly under the root. Droplets of liquid should not end up on the fruits and leaf blades.
