Install a sturdy 2m stake at the time of planting to support the plant as it grows and carries its large fruit. Providing support early also helps avoid disturbing the root system later. Once flowers appear, apply a potassium (K) rich fertiliser to support flowering and fruit development. Water regularly and aim to keep soil moisture reasonably consistent, particularly while fruit is developing. Adding mulch around the root zone can help retain moisture and keep roots cooler during warm weather.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"font-size: 16px;\"\u003eCompanion Planting\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTomato Big Boss can be planted with basil, cucumber, lettuce, parsley or marigold.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 style=\"font-size: 18px;\"\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"font-size: 16px;\"\u003eHow big do Big Boss tomatoes grow?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBig Boss produces large tomatoes weighing approximately 350–425g.
