How to water the tomatoes and whether you need to water at all?
The home of tomato in South America, it rains rarely, but neatly. And tomato Bush are used to it. Therefore, tomatoes should be watered with a long interval between waterings, but very abundant.
For example. The hot and dry summer in the suburbs was in 2014. We watered the tomatoes once a week in the evenings. But at 15 liters per square meter! It is clear that one Strait, the soil so water will not absorb, so I moistened the soil gradually, for three times. For a week this watering enough. In this case, the land is light loam. On sandy soils in the heat of the evaporation is much higher, so they watered tomatoes need one every 4-5 days.
The cold and wet summer in 2013. Even in the greenhouse, the humidity of the soil after ample irrigation was maintained for two weeks, so I watered the tomatoes so well, once in 2-3 weeks, but always very abundant.
Usually one copious watering enough tomatoes for 10 days. This summer. In spring and autumn other features watering tomatoes:
Spring. When transplanting 10 liters of water(lake) on 10 bushes. Then, after waiting for drying of the soil surface and after waiting another 2 days, again, 10 liters of water(lake) on 10 bushes. Subsequent irrigations need to do less and less, depending on the condition of the plants and the air temperature. Podvedut from the heat of the day – time in the evening, the tomatoes are abundantly watered.
Fall. As you lower air temperature, reduce the frequency of watering, until its perfect ending, but if watered it so as profusely as during the summer... Watering in the fall is dangerous in that it stimulates the development of diseases. So it should be treated very carefully. The rarer the better.
Reduce frequency of watering is the key to the health and yield of tomatoes at any time of the year! But to do it in practice? This really helps the soil mulching under the tomatoes. Under mulch the ground practically dry. And one copious watering, even in hot weather, tomatoes can last for a month. Mulch is usually any loose material. Best suited for this hay and straw. You can mulch with moss, large chips, coconut fiber. The mulch layer must be sufficiently thick and loose for access of air to the roots.
Comments:
Do not water tomatoes with cold water below 15 degrees. The ideal water temperature 20 degrees. Watering tomatoes the vine. Moisture on the leaves leads to disease. Do not water tomatoes when the air temperature is below 16 degrees. The roots of this die. Wait for warm weather. Avoid watering often and for not a lot. Watered rare, but abundant! published
