Features of growing
Seeds are initially prepared for planting. Usually soaked in a weak solution of potassium permanganate, to eliminate the occurrence of disease. Then some use special growth promoters in which seeds are soaked overnight. Further seeds are usually placed on wet pecking material.
In March-April, seedlings are sown in a special soil for tomatoes and peppers. Sowing depth - 1 cm, the distance between plants is about 1 cm. Cover with foil for several days to form sufficient moisture. When shoots open. Watering is not often, but plentifully. Do not allow water to fall on the leaves, it ruins the plants.
When 2 full sheets appear, they are seated in separate cups (picks). Capacities for picking choose with holes in the bottom. The pick is needed to strengthen the root system and the plant as a whole. When the plant has about 10 full-fledged sheets and its growth will be 20-25 cm, planting in open ground or greenhouse is possible. Usually on the 50th day after landing. Before planting in the soil, seedlings are usually hardened, the vents are opened for several hours, or taken out to fresh air.
The soil temperature during planting should not be below 20 degrees. Plants are planted around mid-May. In the greenhouse can be planted earlier. For open ground should be provided special shelter from the cold. Loose plants cannot withstand weather conditions.
Tomatoes are usually planted in a staggered manner, at a distance of about 40 cm from each other. The passage between the rows should be approximately 70 cm. When disembarking to a permanent place, holes filled with mineral fertilizer or mullein should be prepared. A few weeks before planting, the soil is dug up with humus and disinfected with blue vitriol. Warm up with the help of shelters. Cucumbers, zucchini, carrots are good precursors for tomatoes. You can not plant in areas where potatoes grew last year.
Tomatoes are planted in cloudy weather, or in the evening, so that the sun does not shock the plants. After planting, tomatoes are well watered at the root and left without action for a week and a half. After that, regular top-dressings with mineral fertilizers are relevant, every one and a half weeks. Mulching and loosening have a good effect on plant growth. Watering is not frequent, abundant under the root. Pastage grade does not require. Only the formation of a bush in one stem.
Garter is required only in case of multiple fruits. The garter is held to individual pegs or trellis tapes made of synthetic materials, other materials may be the cause of rotting of the stem. Flowering occurs in mid-June, after the fruit set is required to stop interfering with the soil, except for watering. Harvest in late June. Will have time to ripen again in the presence of new seedlings.
