I have just been Googling to find out how much water per day a tomato
plant needs.
Some gardening sites in the US stated, e.g. "1 inch of water per
week".
Whatever does this mean ? Over what area ?

Any ideas anyone ?

That sounds way too low when they are growing well in Summer.
I give mine at least an inch depth of water in their pots morning AND
evening, otherwise the tomatoes split due to inconsistent or inadequate
watering.
