After watering and returning the mulch to its original position, the tomato fertilization is complete. Please water not directly on the tomato plant but on the fertilized area. Watering helps stimulate the activity of microorganisms in the soil, aiding in the decomposition of the fertilizer.

After watering, put back the mulch on the bed.
