DO YOU KNOW HOW TO PLANT TOMATOES??
If you don't know,, don't worry I'm here now, I will help you learn how to plant tomato by yourself.. I bet you you gonna enjoy this.
Tomatoes grows very well in a soil known as loamy soil and it's thrive better in a soil with an acidic PH. it's best grown during the dry season as they do not really require alot of rainfall for their germination (that's why in my country is mainly cultivate in northern side).Keep down the weeds on the soil initially by cultivating lightly being careful not to damage roots...water with an inch or water it every week if there has been no rainfall and even there has..Then always check the soil a few inches down to make sure it still moist... and also compost is usually applied on the plant after the flower... After doing all this just relax and wait for your tomato vegetable fruit produce.. it very simple..
MEDICAL ASPECT OF THE TOMATO VEGETABLE FRUIT
Do you know that tomato also serves as a medicine to our health??
What can tomato do in our body system?
Since it contains lycopene, which is very powerful antioxidant that can help to prevent the development of many forms of

Aside from being tasty ,they are very healthy as they're a good source of vitamin A and C. Cooked tomatoes and any other tomato products are the best source of lycopene, since lycopene is released from the tomato when cooked...A raw tomato just has about 20% of lycopene.however,raw or cooked tomatoes are considered the best source of this antioxidant..
