Rotate crops each season and avoid planting tomatoes in the same spot.

Use neem oil or insecticidal soap for pests like aphids or whiteflies.

Keep foliage dry and prune crowded leaves to reduce fungal infections.

Boosting Harvest Size

Fertilize regularly: Use phosphorus-rich fertilizers when flowers appear to support fruit development.

Pollinate manually: Gently shake flowers or use a small brush to transfer pollen if natural pollinators are scarce.

Harvest promptly: Picking ripe fruits encourages more production and prevents overripe fruit from slowing plant growth.
