Winter Tomato Farming: Tips for Abundant Fruit Yield in Cold Weather
- •Choose 'cold-set' tomato varieties like Pusa Sheetal or cherry tomatoes that tolerate low temperatures and can fruit below 10°C.
- •Ensure plants receive 6-8 hours of direct sunlight daily; adjust pot locations as needed to maximize sun exposure.
- •Apply mulching with dry grass or straw around plants to maintain soil warmth and moisture, protecting roots from cold.
- •Water plants in the morning only when the topsoil is dry, avoiding overwatering and keeping water off leaves to prevent fungal growth.
- •Protect plants from frost by covering them with plastic sheets or cotton cloth at night, removing covers in the morning for air circulation.
Why It Matters: Grow juicy winter tomatoes by selecting cold-tolerant varieties, managing sunlight, mulching, and protecting from frost.
