Using your experience my boss, apart from the stress of watering manually whenever there isn't rain for 4-6 days, what other effects should be expected?

Farmerakinloye6:
on a safe side in south west, may is okay. Personally! I will never try it at any time.

Breex222:
My nursery is 27 day today and I can't make ridges because of the hard soil because rain has not fallen for a long time. Will this affect my tomato performance when I later transplant?
definitely! Seedling should stay max 20 days During this period.

I have never use hydrogen peroxide before, worm force I have use and work. Also pack and burn all debris, cassava tuber and order during your land preparation, it helps too.

No rain for straight 7 days here, how are you coping with new tomato transplant?
Re: Step By Step Improve Way Of Cultivating TOMATOES by saysoo: 8:57pm On Apr 10
Am paying a big price not staking Cobra 26 F1. The tomatoes decided to scatter anyhow in the farm.
Drip irrigation is a wonderful choice, my type of irrigation is soaking up my tomatoes.
I will inform the house 🏠 after harvest cause am still getting some good yield.
Tomatoes iare heavy feeders , they need your care and love ❤️, then they will give you what you prayed for.
My first 🥇 time, learning , making mistakes and correcting as I go. Have started harvest though.
Cheers all.

Hardening off could have helped. Allow your seedlings feel the heat of sunlight days/weeks b4 transplanting. Read more about Hardening off.
Re: Step By Step Improve Way Of Cultivating TOMATOES by Legendgody: 1:21am On Apr 14

I think they sell between 40/55k depending on the freshness of the tomatoes.
What I have also observe is that if you have direct access to the market, ie, your farm is within touching distance to the market, you can plan for your daily delivery hence fresh and good price.
