11) Accompany your plants with a few marigolds or Indian pinks.
It’s not just about color! It allows nematodes to attack tomatoes and therefore deform the stems, roots and fruits.
It is often because of them that nutrients circulate poorly or that certain diseases are carried. Place them not far from the base of your tomato plants so that their smell and foliage repel these undesirables.
12) Try garlic to improve the taste of your tomatoes.
Plant garlic bulbs near your tomato plants. They will taste better and will reduce the number of fungal parasites. If this doesn’t appeal to you, you can use garlic in another way: crush a few cloves of garlic and add them to 3 liters of water, which will be used to water the soil.
13) Move them a few times.
Do not plant your tomatoes in the same place 3 years in a row (three years in the same area is the maximum).
If space in your garden allows, move them around after two years. Over time, the soil may become less fertile and your plants will produce fewer tomatoes.
