Plump belongs to varieties with an early ripening period. From the moment of emergence to the first harvest, 110 to 115 days pass. One of the special characteristics is long-term fruiting. Tomatoes are harvested in the last two months of summer.

The yield is high. 4.2 kg of ripe vegetables are harvested from one square meter of the plantation.

To get good seedlings, sowing seedlings should be done in early spring (early or mid March).

Seedling growing process:

1. the seed is germinated in fertile soil;
2. containers with seeds are covered with foil or transparent glass;
3. the shelter is removed after the first shoots appear;
4. after removing the shelter, the seedlings continue to germinate until two full-fledged leaves appear;
5. then the seedlings are dived in separate containers;
6. seedlings continue to germinate for another 14 days, leaving the container in a sunny place;
7. after 2 weeks, top dressing is applied to the soil for the first time.

As soon as the seedlings are 60-65 days old, young plants are transplanted to a permanent place. By this time, 6-7 true leaves should appear on each bush. After transplanting, the tomatoes are fertilized three more times as they grow. Also, do not forget about other rules of agricultural technology.

Gardeners recommend the following scheme for planting - 50x40 centimeters. The maximum planting density is 3-4 plants per square meter.

Caring for the bushes consists in performing the following procedures:

• weeding to clear the area of ​​weeds;
• irrigation simultaneously with loosening the topsoil;
• pinching and garter shoots;
• preventive treatment for diseases and insects.

In order for the crop to ripen at the same time, regular pruning of the lower leaves should be performed. So the bushes will give nutrients to the growth of tomatoes, and not to the formation of green mass. Fertilizers are applied during flowering, when setting ovaries and when tomatoes are ripening.

The variety loves regular watering, but moisture stagnation cannot be allowed. High humidity negatively affects the root system, it begins to rot, and the plant dies. A humid climate encourages fungal growth.

Harvested as it ripens. If you leave ripe tomatoes on the branches, the bushes will not have enough strength to ripen green vegetables. When cultivated, the bushes are formed into 1-2 stems.

The Dorodny variety grows and bears fruit remarkably in cold climates. Due to this characteristic, tomatoes are often grown in the northern regions of the country.
