Mistake that can cost you your farm: 1 fertilizer; know dosage,when and how to apply it. If you do mistake, your TOMATO will die. 2. Manure, if you do not allow your poultry littter,pig,cow e.g to compost and you use it fresh, your TOMATO will die. 3. Insecticide, if high dosage is use especially on young tomato, the result will be devastating. 4. Namatode, if you don't know history or you are using the farm land for the first time to cultivate TOMATO,it make sense to treat the soil. Have heard someone said "he lost 6000 stand to namatode." 5. Seedlings tray, after you sow seed inside seedlings tray spread them on soil (if the soil is fertile, your seedlings will thank you), if you spread them on concrete they will be dying/cripple one after other maybe 10-15days, because there root has shoot out and could not penetrate to search for nutrient/food.
Always look before you leap...more loading....TOMATO Farmer pls add your own and let make Nigeria Great!!
Impressive.

The plants are not heat-stressed. The leaves of the lower branches start folding upwards until it gets to the topmost branches. The flowers are also aborting. I maintain a good fertilzer and spraying regime. Plants are 5 weeks from transplant and have started flowering and fruiting. See a healthy one below.

forget the water you are giving the plant. The cause is the weather ( harmattan and heat) nothing you can do about it ma'am. Those that plant here at the moment are experiencing the same too.

the farm will be divided into seven section, then plant every month. Harvest at least 3 times in a week from may-dec. That is the plan!

if it is for commercial purpose do it (south west Nigeria) first week of May, March - April is possible but highly risky.
