Summary:
- scientists still don't know exactly what growing conditions are
responsible for the supertasty tomato
- good tomato flavor is a complex panorama of sugars, acids, and mysterious
gassy chemicals that we experience as smell ... some of those chemicals can
make a tomato taste sweet even though they have nothing to do with sugar.
- the more direct sun you can give your tomatoes the better – and in
particular, sweeter — they'll taste.
- Too much water can also dilute the flavor. ... most experts recommend
watering two to three times a week in the hottest part of the summer.
- using brackish water or seawater on tomatoes also yielded better flavor.
- plant seedlings in rich soil with lots of organic matter, or compost. And
you can add a steady slow-release fertilizer (like Osmocote).
- don't think that a tomato that grows well and tastes like a dream in one
place will necessarily thrive somewhere else.
