BONUS: Here are some more Mistakes to watch out for...
One frequent error is improper watering. Tomatoes need consistent moisture, but overwatering can lead to root rot, while underwatering can cause blossom end rot. It's crucial to water deeply and allow the soil to dry slightly between watering's.

Another mistake is planting tomatoes too closely. Insufficient spacing restricts air circulation, fostering diseases like blight. Ideally, space plants 18 to 24 inches apart to ensure adequate airflow and sunlight penetration.

Neglecting soil preparation is also a common issue. Tomatoes thrive in well-drained, nutrient-rich soil. Failing to amend soil with compost or organic matter can result in poor growth. Testing soil pH and maintaining it between 6.0 and 6.8 is vital for nutrient uptake.

Improper staking or caging can lead to broken branches and reduced yield. Providing sturdy support early helps plants grow upright and bear fruit without damage.

Ignoring pests and diseases can devastate tomato crops. Regular inspection for signs of pests like aphids or diseases such as early blight allows for timely intervention with organic or chemical treatments.

Finally, using improper pruning techniques can hinder growth. Removing suckers judiciously helps maintain plant health and fruit production without compromising foliage needed for photosynthesis
