Guía de cultivo de Tomato

Stake or cage tomato plants at planting time — supporting the vine improves air circulation and reduces disease by keeping fruit off the ground.

Remove suckers (shoots growing between the main stem and branches) on indeterminate varieties to concentrate energy into fruit production.

Water deeply and consistently — irregular watering causes blossom end rot, a calcium deficiency triggered by water stress.

Mulch heavily around plants to maintain even soil moisture, suppress weeds, and prevent soil-borne disease splash onto lower leaves.

Rotate tomatoes with non-solanaceous crops (avoid following peppers, eggplant, potatoes) to break Fusarium and Verticillium wilt cycles.

Transplant seedlings deep — bury the stem up to the first set of true leaves. Tomatoes develop roots along the buried stem for stronger plants.
