Tomato Fire

A hybrid variety of tomatoes Fire is recommended for cultivation in different regions of the country. Breeders have developed a vegetable crop that has received resistance to many diseases and a high yield. Bushes bear fruit abundantly indoors. And they are also unpretentious to growing conditions, due to which most gardeners choose this particular variety.

The growth type of the hybrid is indeterminate. Most often, bushes are cultivated in film greenhouses, but in open ground conditions, regular fruiting can also be achieved. It is customary to use the crop in its natural form, without heat treatment. Tall plants reach a height of 160 to 180 centimeters. The color of the leaves is standard green, the size is medium. A characteristic feature of the plants is strong shoots and a trunk.

The first inflorescences appear above 8-9 leaves. 7-8 flowers are collected in one fruit cluster, which then turn into vegetables. The type of inflorescence is simple.

The color of unripe tomatoes is light green. There is also a spot at the stalk of the same color. A ripe crop takes on a rich red hue. Weight varies from 160 to 180 grams. The tomatoes are round, with a slight ribbing. The pulp is dense with a pleasant texture, and the skin is smooth and glossy, with a characteristic shine. The peel protects vegetables from deformation and cracking. Thanks to her, tomatoes are able to maintain juiciness for a long time.

In suitable conditions, tomatoes are stored for about a month (3-4 weeks). The main thing is that there are no drafts and high humidity in the room. Storage temperature +19 degrees Celsius. The crop is not afraid of long haulage.

Fresh tomatoes are ideal for preparing salads and appetizers. And also the crop is used for canning.

The tasters gave the Fire tomatoes high taste. Excellent taste combines pronounced sweetness with pleasant sourness.

Tomatoes ripen early. The ripening period is 90-95 days. Bushes bear fruit for a long time, especially if they grow in greenhouse conditions. The dates for harvesting fruits fall from mid-July to the end of summer.

Up to 19.5 kilograms of vegetables are harvested from a square meter of the plantation. Slightly unripe tomatoes are highly transportable. And also high marketability was noted.

At the end of March, they begin sowing seeds for seedlings, and the transfer of seedlings to the ground falls in mid or late May. By the time the bushes are transplanted, their age should be from 55 to 60 days. With this in mind, it is possible to accurately calculate the landing dates for each region. The seeds can be planted immediately in separate containers. Experienced gardeners advise using peat cups or tablets. So a picking will not be carried out, during which you can accidentally injure the roots.

For cultivation, choose a universal soil, which can be prepared by mixing garden soil with a spoonful of superphosphate, sand or humus. After sowing, the grains are moistened, and the containers are transferred under a film.

While the seed is germinating, you need to start preparing the greenhouse and the selected land. The territory must be cleaned, dug up and leveled.The depleted soil is fed so that the seedlings receive the necessary amount of nutrients. The site is watered with a hot manganese solution, which helps in the destruction of parasites and disinfection of the soil. After that, you need to arrange a sufficient number of holes and prepare supports. It is possible to transfer seedlings only after the frost has completely passed, and the soil warms up to +15 degrees.

Seedlings need sufficient moisture, warmth and light. With a lack of natural light, additional lighting devices are used.

A portion of superphosphate is sent to each well. It is undesirable to use nitrogen fertilizing, since this component is necessary for dense green mass, and not for fruits. Better to switch to phosphorus, potash or organic fertilizers. The first time the seedlings are fertilized 14 days after transfer to the site.

The recommended landing pattern is 40x50 centimeters.

Bushes of the Fire variety do not require special care, but it is imperative to create comfortable conditions for them. Tall bushes must be tied up. This is necessary so that the shoots do not bend under the weight of the vegetables and do not interfere with each other. The second event is the formation of a bush.

For the tomatoes to be juicy and tasty, you need to water the plants at least once a week. Irrigation is carried out after the upper layers of the soil have dried. Water the bushes early in the morning using warm and settled water. Cold water negatively affects the condition of the root system and the plant as a whole. In hot or cloudy weather, the irrigation frequency is adjusted.

Vegetable crops prefer light and fertile soil. Otherwise, feeding is performed several times a season. It is advisable to use complex mineral compositions rich in potassium and phosphorus.

When using ready-made compositions, it is important not to overdo it with their quantity, since their excess will negatively affect the yield. If the bushes do not get sick, bloom and regularly bear fruit, you can do without making additional dressings.

After transferring the seedlings to a permanent growing place, you need to give them time to adapt (2 weeks). During this period, fertilizers are not used. As needed, the bushes are fed three times per season.
