Fruiting Crops require a longer time to mature (2 – 4 months based on variety), but they give an abundance of fruits for a long time once they mature. It is highly recommended not to grow more than 1 type of fruiting crop per tower.
Plant only a maximum of 3 plants of Tomato per Tower, and only 1 plant per Tower Pot. Do not plant tomatoes on the bottom-most Tower Pot to avoid DWC (Deep Water Culture).
Tomato Plants require manual pruning for optimized harvests. As the plant grows, cut all “sucker” stems as highlighted in the pictures, making sure to keep only the very first sucker under the first fruiting stem for each plant. If you do not cut the suckers, the plant will struggle to give fruits and will result in a large plant but with very low fruit yield.
Tomatoes require a special cage, check it out here.
