Plant Care

Water your hanging tomatoes deeply twice a week to keep the soil moist.  Never let the soil dry out completely.  We would recommend a common garden watering can as shown below:

Add mulch to your tomatoes if the pot is right side up. Spread the mulch generously over the soil.

Fertilize your tomatoes on the day of planting, and consistently afterward. Use a 5-5-5 fertilizer to provide nitrogen, phosphorous and potassium to promote plant growth and blossoming.

Use liquid fertilizer on plants that are in desperate need of fertilization or are starting to wilt.

Scatter slow-release granules over the soil surface for continued, slow-release fertilization. Use granules marked for tomatoes.

Prune your tomatoes.  Remove secondary shoots, known as suckers, by pinching them off where they connect to the main stem.
