Abstract
Tomato growers tend to stick to a strict temperature strategy: a low temperature in the early morning to reach the day temperature, and rapid cooling down at the end of the day. According to recent research, this is not necessary. A gradual temperature rise in the morning and decrease in the evening gives the same results.
