Types and Textures. Loam and sandy loam soils are best for tomato production, but these plants will grow in almost all soil types except heavy clay. If you your soil has lots of clay, you can improve the texture by tilling the soil and incorporating sand, sawdust, peat moss or other amendments before planting.
Tomato plants thrive in full sun in humus-rich, well-drained soil with a pH between 6.0 and 6.8. Although tomato plants can tolerate slightly dry soil, they perform best when the soil remains evenly moist, as uneven watering can cause blossom-end rot and cat-facing in tomatoes.
