The timing of planting seedlings and planting in the ground

It is necessary to start planting seeds in containers at the end of March. Sometimes this procedure is performed in early April. Gardeners should be guided by a convenient moment for themselves. Transfer to open ground is carried out at the end of April or in the middle of May. These terms can be determined as accurately as possible taking into account the actual weather and the degree of warming of the earth.

Growing tomato seedlings is an extremely important process, because it largely depends on whether the gardener can harvest at all. All aspects must be taken into account, from seedbed preparation to planting in the ground.

Landing scheme

The holes should be arranged according to the 400x600 mm scheme. There should be 3 or 4 plants per 1 m2. Traditionally, the choice between these options is determined by the personal priorities of the gardener. Important: seedlings dive in advance. This should be done when 2 real leaves appear on the bush.

Planting a tomato is a very important and painstaking business.In order to get a good harvest of tomatoes, you need to competently approach the issue of planting. When planting a tomato in the ground, it is necessary to take into account many factors - correctly determine the timing, prepare the soil, correctly calculate the distance between plants, take into account the rules of crop rotation.

Growing and care

Removing stepchildren will be strictly mandatory. And also the formation of bushes is an indispensable moment. They should be arranged in 1 or 2 stems. It is hardly wise to use more stems. Although the likelihood of cracking the fruit is small, you need to additionally be reinsured.

The planting holes must first be filled with compost and superphosphate. Complete care includes:

  • feeding with mixtures containing phosphorus, nitrogen and potassium;

  • watering with warm, settled water under the root;

  • loosening the soil 1 time in 7-10 days, and also if necessary (if it is excessively compacted).

During the planting phase, it is advisable to select the seeds very carefully. After passing the ascent test in water, they are soaked in wet gauze. It is advisable to use growth activators in order to get a more impressive result. Planting seedlings in open areas or in greenhouses is traditionally timed to coincide with cloudy weather. This allows relatively delicate seedlings to avoid sunburn.

It is important to remember that ripe berries are the same color. Once this condition is met, the crop should be harvested. For a long time on the branches by itself, it does not sag. Top dressing is carried out at intervals of 14 days. Along with traditional pegs, trellis with wire stretched over them can also be used as supports.

Watering tomatoes is not difficult. After planting, the plant is watered at such intervals that the soil remains moist. In dry weather, when it does not rain for a long time, watering can be carried out every day, but usually the beds with tomatoes are irrigated 2-3 times a week.
The methods of tying tomato bushes can vary significantly, depending on the availability of available material, the method of fixation, and also the variety. In general, it is recommended to adhere to the following scheme: first, the central stems are grabbed, and then, as the fruits ripen, the lateral branches.
One of the important conditions for tomato agricultural technology is the correct formation of the bush. The formation of tomato bushes means performing the following steps: pinching, pinching, trimming the leaves, normalizing the ovaries.

A plant needs different micronutrients at each stage of growth. All fertilizers can be divided into two groups: mineral and organic. Folk remedies are often used: iodine, yeast, bird droppings, eggshells.

It is important to observe the rate and period of feeding. This also applies to folk remedies and organic fertilizers.

Treatment and prevention of diseases and pests
When growing tomatoes in a greenhouse, diseases often occur due to a violation of the temperature regime and excessive humidity. The most common diseases are fungal (late blight, cladosporium, rot).
The fight against diseases and pests of tomatoes in open areas can be quite difficult. This is because nightshades are exposed to a wide variety of pathogens and insect pests.
