There are many reasons why tomatoes grow poorly, as you can see, but how to solve them? Above, several simple tips have already been given, now it is worthwhile to study in more detail how to prevent growth from stopping or to correct the situation.
- Watering tomatoes should only be done with warm water infused in the sun. This should be done early in the morning or in the evening, when the sun has disappeared.
- Frequent watering is much preferable to rare, but abundant. The latter lead to cracking of the fruit.
- It is not necessary to collect seeds from sown tomatoes from year to year. It is necessary to renew the seed, otherwise the yield of the variety will rapidly fall every year. Once every three years, it is worth buying new seeds, store-bought in bags and sowing them, rather than picking from the tomatoes sown for this year.
- When choosing a variety for planting, you need to pay attention to where it should be grown? If tomatoes are intended for a greenhouse, they cannot be grown outdoors and vice versa. If you neglect this rule, tomatoes, having reached a certain growth, will simply stop developing or will not bear fruit.
