Without knowing your weather/watering schedule, if they are outside full sun in heat they’ll be happy with a good watering every day, sometimes twice if its really hot. They don’t tend to like wet leaves from what I’ve learned, and moist soil is ok but not wet soil.

I grow mine in my classroom upside down. These are definitely in need of some shade. The more light the more water they need and they kind of burn the energy that way instead of making beautiful tomatoes. Good luck
