Pest
Hornworms, aphids, flea beetles, Colorado potato beetle, tomato fruit worms, slugs, stink bugs, whiteflies, and hornworms
Watering
Tomatoes prefer well-drained soil and should be watered consistently to keep the soil consistently moist, not waterlogged. Ensure the top inch of soil remains evenly moist
Harvesting
To harvest tomatoes wait until they reach their mature color and have a firm texture. Gently twist or cut the stem using pruning shears. For vine-ripened flavor, allow tomatoes to fully ripen on the plant. Regularly pick ripe tomatoes to encourage more fruit production.
Culinary/ Uses
Roma tomatoes are great when used in sauces, salsas, bruschetta's, soups, and canned products.
