Several of my tomato, pepper and cabbage plants growing in big pots have drooping leaves. How often should they be watered during fall and winter?
Drooping leaves can be a sign of too much or too little water. It’s important that plants get the right amount of moisture. The touch test is the best way to determine water needs during the cooler months. Feel the surface inch of soil, and if the soil is starting to dry, it’s time to water. When needed, soak the soil until moisture runs from the bottom of the container.
