if you want them big, healthy and juicy, you have to water them like this: nobody ever does it"},"content":{"rendered":"\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>The tomato is a highly appreciated vegetable in the gastronomic world for its rich flavor and the adaptability it offers to different dishes.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Having a tomato plant in your home garden is an incredible experience and that is why many decide to include it almost as a must.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Tomatoes, how to water them so that they are juicy<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One of the points that you should perhaps pay more attention to is watering tomatoes because&nbsp;&nbsp;<strong>they do not tolerate drought or excess water.&nbsp;<\/strong>Tomatoes are species that need a certain amount of water to thrive favorably.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\" id=\"attachment_129424\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lettoquotidiano.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/pomodori-rossi-maturi.jpg\" alt=\"Ripe red tomatoes\" class=\"wp-image-129424\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Unlike other types of vegetables, persistence in this matter is essential to ensure that it is healthy and offers an&nbsp;&nbsp;<strong>adequate harvest.&nbsp;<\/strong>Now, it is not about watering because it has to be done, it is necessary to understand the processes it goes through from when it is a seed until it has red, edible fruits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How can we detect lack of irrigation?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Tomato plants will look vigorous as long as watering is adequate for their needs.&nbsp;When this vigor is lost, it is most likely due to a&nbsp;&nbsp;<strong>water stress problem.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">However, it should not be confused with the natural decline that occurs when the most extreme hours of sunshine arrive, but rather the plant should be boosted at dusk.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If the drought continues, the plant will not be able to give a good harvest or stay alive, so it will eventually die.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How often do we water tomatoes?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The frequency of watering the tomato should be established based on its&nbsp;&nbsp;<strong>particular needs at each stage<\/strong>&nbsp;&nbsp;.&nbsp;When seeds are planted, this is usually the busiest time for this issue, as a lot of moisture is required for them to germinate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\" id=\"attachment_129433\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lettoquotidiano.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/irrigazione-pianta-di-pomodoro-in-serra.jpg\" alt=\"Watering tomato plants in greenhouse\" class=\"wp-image-129433\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Once it has been established as a plant, factors such as&nbsp;&nbsp;<strong>soil, climate, exposure to sunlight, among others, must be taken into account.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The most advisable thing is to make short irrigations with little water but daily in the productive phase, reducing them to two per week the rest of the time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What is the best way to water?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Drip irrigation is the best alternative for watering tomato plants because it helps provide water with two basic principles:&nbsp;&nbsp;<strong>slow and constant.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When water can penetrate deep into the soil without risking flooding, the plant develops a better root system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In this way the aerial part will have a better appearance and this will have a positive impact on the production of the vegetable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Keep in mind that&nbsp;&nbsp;<strong>watering the foliage and fruit will be counterproductive<\/strong>&nbsp;&nbsp;to the health of the tomato plant, so be careful not to do so.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How do we detect excess water?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When the soil has&nbsp;&nbsp;<strong>excess moisture<\/strong>&nbsp;&nbsp;, the roots will not be able to offer the necessary oxygen to the rest of the plant.&nbsp;This will have consequences in terms of foliage color and loss of vigor, since it will be difficult for it to carry out vital processes such as photosynthesis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Likewise, access to nutrients will be negatively influenced, which will reduce the vigor of the plant.&nbsp;All of this will obviously affect the productivity of the tomatoes, which may be reduced in quantity or of poor quality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\" id=\"attachment_129437\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lettoquotidiano.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/irrigazione-pianta-di-pomodori.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-129437\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But the most significant damage is linked to root rot and the possible&nbsp;&nbsp;<strong>establishment of fungi<\/strong>&nbsp;&nbsp;, which love wetlands.&nbsp;When watering the tomato, it is also important to evaluate the state of the water quality because it will be essential to have a healthy crop.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In general, you can use those that contain&nbsp;&nbsp;<strong>a certain level of salts<\/strong>&nbsp;&nbsp;, but taking care that it is not excessive.&nbsp;In any case, if you only want to give it the most favorable water for its growth and production, be careful to&nbsp;&nbsp;<strong>collect rainwater<\/strong>&nbsp;&nbsp;, it will be ideal.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The tomato is a highly
