i planted them without roof cover, here in germany. beside the tomatoes are alfafa which i used as ground cover to suppress weed. i am trying out use beneficial legume to battle weed and as supply of organic fertilizer or "N".

the is another tomato that i plant in big pot without the alfafa, the soil is bare as normal potted plant. it also has this problem. pls id it for me the disease name and way to fight it.. it is killing all my adult plant... (broken stem)

some local said that it is need to be under a roof, as the rain makes everything spoil. he also said 15km away, there is a big factory "BAYER" the factory that produces medicine such as aspirin....etc.. so he suspect the air is polluted and the rain coming down ruin the fragile tomato. btw, i am planting cherry tomato that i got seed from organic cherry tomato that i eat , which bought from supermarkt.
