Jennifer Reyes+FollowWhy Your Tomatoes Keep SplittingEver picked a tomato only to find it cracked? Turns out, tomatoes split when they get uneven water—like a dry spell followed by a downpour. The fix? Water them on a regular schedule, aiming for about an inch a week. Do the finger test: if the soil’s dry an inch down, it’s time to water. No fancy gear needed—just a hose or watering can, and keep the leaves dry. Your tomatoes will thank you (and so will your salads). #gardeninghacks #tomatotips #homegrown #Business #Industry10Share
