Watering Tomatoes
Well I posted a question here about a month ago about growing tomatoes
from seed. I think that I am doing a good job. I had them in a parkseed biodome, even though most of the time the dome was off. After it was apparent that they were not getting enough light I but them in our less used bath and switch out the bulbs with plant ones. That has been pretty good but the tomatoes were getting "leggy" and falling over so this weekend I replanted them in 2-liter/3-liter bottles, I could not get all 3-liters. They are setup in the bathroom again and I have watered them once on saturday. My question is: At this stage in their growth, how much should I water them and how often? I have some pictures and more information on my a href="http://jerdking.blogspot.com/ "Blog/a Please give me your thoughts. Thanks |

Watering Tomatoes
Has anyone tried one of the traveling sprinklers that is of the hose
reel type. I am looking at the Rapid Rain Model 860 by Mobile Irrigation Technologies. I saw it at http://www.rapidrain.com and am comparing it to Microrain. Seems to be a much better bang for the buck and its made here in the ole US of A |

Watering Tomatoes
Too many variable to give a specific answer. Once a week is probably
enough. I assume you made drainage holes. Don't want those babies to rot. Letting them almost dry will encourge more root growth. You might want to give them natural light during the day since you only have a few. I don't know if the lights in your bath are strong enough unless they are just inches above your plants. I wouldn't fertilize right now. It might result in weak grow unless you're getting strong sun light. |
