Tomatoes in gardens have an advantage over container plants -- they can spread their roots out far and deep in search of water. Even so, the same rule of thumb about even soil moisture applies. Tomato plants need about 1 to 1 1/2 inches of water each week to fruit, according to Ohio State University. There's no need to measure, so long as you maintain an even soil moisture. At the beginning of the growing season, this may mean watering in the morning until the soil is thoroughly damp and remains damp all day.
Tomato plants that receive less than 8 hours of sunlight a day produce fewer and smaller fruits. Tomatoes thrive in full sun and fertile, well-drained, slightly acidic soil with a pH between 6.0 and 6.8. For healthy growth, tomato plants require at least 8 hours of direct sunlight a day. However, the hours of sunlight do not need to be consecutive. This means that tomatoes can be grown successfully in both morning and afternoon sun as long as the number of hours adds up to 8 or more.
