Diseases and their control
Like many other plants, tomatoes are susceptible to various diseases. But we can say that the Wolverine f1 tomato is considered an exception.It can easily carry many diseases that quickly destroy any garden plants. Thanks to this, reviews about Wolverine are only positive.
Since this tomato variety can be grown in open ground, it is resistant to Fusarium wilt, Alternaria and gray rot. That is, these diseases will no longer be able to affect him.
In order for resistance to other diseases to appear, the hybrid must be watered in a timely manner and regularly “fed” with mineral and organic fertilizers. An infusion of nettle and comfrey also helps against viruses and diseases. It just needs to be added to plant nutrition.
The main thing is not to overdo it with feed and fertilizers. There is no need to think, the more you add, the better the harvest will be. This is wrong. With an excessive amount of fertilizer, the quality of the fruit decreases significantly; they accumulate nitrogen. More shoots and leaves appear on the bushes than ovaries.
Mulching the soil will help get rid of weeds. This allows you to reduce the amount of watering, but at the same time the tendency to develop fungal diseases increases.
