For comparison: you have to water tomatoes in normal flower pots 1-2 times a day. The irrigation bands connect the plant pot and the water tank. They transport the water evenly upwards into the soil and always provide your plants with the right amount of water - never too much and never too little.

FAQ
TOM TOMATO is set up in just a few steps and ready for planting. All you have to do is fill in soil and plant a tomato plant.
You can find all the details in the TOM TOMATO instructions.
When assembled, TOM TOMATO (including climbing support) measures 35 x 28 cm with a height of 135 cm.
Tomatoes need a lot of light and love warmth. This means that the most optimal conditions for a rich tomato harvest are: sunny, warm and protected from rain. A place in front of a house wall from which the heat is radiated back is particularly suitable for this.
For a productive harvest, we recommend tomato soil. You can find pre-mixed tomato soil in stores, which is ideal for growing tomatoes. Alternatively, you can of course also use vegetable soil.
If you want to grow tomatoes from seeds, you should start in March. This works best with our mini greenhouse including TOM TOMATO seed mix. You can find step-by-step instructions here: Mini greenhouse instructions. But if you want to plant young tomato plants, then you should wait for the ice saints to grow in mid-May. In any case, the plants should no longer be exposed to frost.
First of all: Make sure you never water the leaves of a tomato plant! Tomatoes are very sensitive to water because wet leaves can quickly lead to rot and other diseases.
After planting, you should only water the soil around your plant from above for a while, but also fill the storage tank with 4.5L of water. Once the roots reach into the water tank, all you have to do is fill the tank regularly. The irrigation bands ensure that the soil in the lower area of the plant pot is moistened to ensure optimal absorption of nutrients via the roots.
