Tomatoes are actually plants native to the American continent, which are spread from Central America, to South America.

It is said that tomatoes, which were initially feared to be poisonous by Europeans in the 18th century, began to be accepted by the wider community as a food ingredient after the world war.

The spread of tomatoes in Indonesia is thought to have started from the Philippines and other Asian countries in the 18th century.

As plants that come from tropical areas, tomatoes really like sunlight.

Once picked, tomatoes no longer like sunlight.

Tomato plants have a wide tolerance to the conditions of their growing environment.

The optimal light for growth is around 6 hours, with a temperature between 20-25°c every day.

He said, temperatures above 26°c, rain, and cloudy can cause pests on tomato plants.

The optimal temperature for storing ripe tomatoes is around 8-10°c. With relative air humidity 80-85%.

Under these storage conditions, tomatoes can be fresh for approximately 2 weeks.

Storage temperatures above 25°c can also affect the red coloring substances in tomatoes, so the tomatoes become orange.

Greetings always compact.
