Tomato plants typically do not have swollen roots because their root system is designed for efficient nutrient and water uptake rather than storage. Unlike plants such as carrots or beets, which develop swollen roots for energy storage, tomatoes invest in a fibrous root system that supports their growth and fruit production. Swollen roots can also indicate issues like overwatering or root rot, which are detrimental to the plant's health. Thus, healthy tomato roots remain slender and functional rather than swollen.
