Job Location

Selecting a planting site means choosing a location for growing tomatoes. It should provide plenty of sunlight, good air circulation, and fertile, well-drained soil. Avoid areas prone to frost pockets, places that are shaded for long periods, and sites where tomatoes, potatoes, peppers, eggplants, or other nightshade plants have been grown in previous years. The length of the rotation period and the choice of preceding crop should be tailored to the history of specific diseases at that particular site.
