    Instructions

    • 1). Water your hanging tomatoes deeply twice a week to keep the soil moist. Never let the soil dry out completely.

    • 2). Add mulch to your tomatoes if the pot is right side up. Spread the mulch generously over the soil.

    • 3). Fertilize your tomatoes on the day of planting, and consistently afterward. Use a 5-3-4 fertilizer to provide nitrogen, phosphorous and potassium to promote plant health and blossoming.

    • 4). Use liquid fertilizer on plants that are in desperate need of fertilization or are starting to wilt.

    • 5). Scatter slow-release granules over the soil surface for continued, slow-release fertilization. Use granules marked for tomatoes.

    • 6). Prune your tomatoes. Remove secondary shoots, known as suckers, by pinching them off where they connect to the main stem.
