Features when growing
Before planting in the ground, plants are sown as seedlings at home. This process begins 50-60 days before planting in the ground, at the end of February, beginning of March. After strengthening the planted plants and acquiring 4-6 permanent leaves, they are planted in separate containers. In April-May, when the air temperature reaches 20-25 degrees, the strengthened seedlings are transplanted into the ground at a distance of 30 centimeters from each other. This way the plants have enough sunlight and space for the bush to fully develop. They are planted in the greenhouse a little earlier, but in this case it is necessary to monitor the weather so that frost does not occur. Otherwise, the seedlings will disappear.
When the bush is formed, it is tied up and shaped. To do this, the lower stepsons break off. It is necessary to cut off the stepsons and leaves gradually so that the bush does not die. In the morning, in sunny, not rainy weather, use your nails to tear off the 2 lower stepsons and leaves.
It is necessary to ensure that the leaves of the tomato variety do not lie on the ground, in which case there is a risk of late blight infection.
The bush is demanding when it comes to watering. The soil should not be allowed to dry out. Fertilize the soil during the entire period of fruit growth and ripening once every two weeks. You also need to loosen and weed the soil to better absorb moisture when watering.
