Hey everyone! I'm having some trouble with my tomato plant. It's producing small fruits, but the leaves seem to be drying out and looking weak almost every other day. My plant is in a large grow bag, gets what I believe is regular sunlight, and I make sure to water it whenever the soil feels dry, which is nearly every other day due to the summer heat. I'm looking for suggestions on how to better care for it. Thanks in advance!

Also, just to clarify, how many hours of sunlight does your plant get? Ideally, you want it to have at least 6 hours of direct sunlight per day for it to thrive. Anything less and it might struggle a bit.
Don’t forget to share pictures if you can! It can help get better advice. Here’s an image of my tomato plant for reference. Just remember, healthier plants will usually have greener leaves and bigger fruits!
It sounds like you're not watering enough! Grow bags dry out pretty quickly, so you might want to water more frequently—like daily, especially in this heat. It's hard to overwater tomatoes, so don’t be shy about giving your plant a good drink!
Haha thanks for the tip!
I'm near Toronto, and currently, it's getting definitely more than 6 hours of sunlight, so that should be covered.
