Growing Tomato
Tomatoes should be planted according to where the plant will be planted in the future. As a rule, seeds for seedlings begin to be planted in late winter - early spring.
Seeds must be prepared for planting. To do this, they are immersed in a weak manganese solution for several minutes (10 – 15). This way they are disinfected, after which the seeds can be planted in the ground. Cover the container with plastic wrap and place it in a room at room temperature. The sprouting of the first plants can be observed after 4 – 9 days.
It is necessary to ventilate the mini-greenhouse once a day, and as soon as the shoots appear, the film can be removed. Watering is carried out as needed. Tomato seedlings can begin to be planted in separate containers when 2–3 leaves appear on them.
Tomato care
Voyage tomatoes, like any vegetable crop, require certain care:
- Hilling is carried out when tubercles appear on the plant stem.
- Feeding is necessary in moderation. At the beginning, nitrophoska is used (1 liter per 1 plant). In the future, mineral and organic fertilizers are used.
- Watering is an important part of the growing process. The water temperature should be about 22 – 24 °C. For watering 1 m2 you will need about 5 liters of water. Please note that tomatoes need to be hydrated as needed.
- Gartering bushes is one of the essential aspects of caring for plants. Since tomatoes have a tall stem, they need additional support. As a rule, this is done in the form of gartering bushes using special pegs.
