It's very hot in the greenhouse today. Should I be pouring water on the path to make the atmosphere humid?

Do tomato plants like it humid or dry?

As long as the air does not stagnate.  It is stagnant air that virus's enjoy.

I don't do this as i find the mildew and blight just love a damp atmosphere.
The best years for me have been when the gh is dry.Just make sure that the plants have enough water in the soil and they will be fine

I also make the toms deep root by not watering them for the first month. This means that i dont water in there either unless its been super dry and then they get a real soak I don't seem to have the problems of wilting or fruit splitting i used to when i watered and coddled them.
Good luck
