Tomato Hurricane

Vegetable culture Hurricane got its name due to the fast ripening of the fruit. This tomato variety is chosen when they want to get the harvest as early as possible. Among the huge variety, he managed to win the trust of Russian gardeners.

Breeders bred a hybrid with an indeterminate type of growth. For full-fledged cultivation of bushes, you can choose any conditions - greenhouses from different materials or open areas. It is advisable to choose the first option on the territory of regions with an unstable or unfavorable climate in order to protect tomatoes from frost or sudden changes in temperature.

The versatility of the fruit will be highly appreciated by lovers of juicy and tasty tomatoes. They are good both fresh and processed (preparations for the winter, whole-fruit canning and other cooking options). Tall plants reach an average height of 180-220 centimeters. Growth depends on growing conditions, and indoors they grow taller than bushes outdoors.

Leafiness and branching are medium. The leaves do not block the sun's rays, which are essential for the ripening of delicious vegetables. The foliage is green with stipules, regular and medium in size. The first inflorescence is located above 6 or 7 leaves, and the rest are found every 3 leaves. The type of inflorescence is simple.

Fully ripe tomatoes turn bright red. The color is uniform. The average weight of vegetables varies from 33 to 42 grams, sometimes it is possible to grow tomatoes weighing from 90 to 100 grams. Larger sizes can be achieved when growing tomatoes in greenhouses. The surface is covered with small ribs. Tomatoes are round, slightly flattened, the same size and shape. The volume of dry matter is small - 4.5-5.3%. The skin is smooth, glossy, with a slight sheen. Juicy flesh forms under the dense skin. The seed chambers, as well as the seeds themselves, are few.

The taste of tomatoes is responded positively. Tomatoes are sweet, with a slight sour taste. Gastronomic qualities are preserved even after thermal processing of vegetables. Thanks to this feature, delicious preservation is obtained from the fruits of the Uragan variety.

The above variety belongs to the early, and the ripening period of vegetables is from 92 to 111 days. In regions with warm climates, the first crop can be harvested after 90 days.

Hurricane is rightfully considered a high-yielding variety. The number of fruits harvested per square meter of the plot is from 8 to 10 kilograms. With commercial cultivation per hectare, it is possible to collect from 104 to 219 centners per hectare of plantation. The harvested crop can be transported over long distances without loss of quality. And also there is a high marketability.

Note: Despite the fact that the tomato is resistant to sudden changes in temperature, its yield remains high. Even in cloudy and capricious weather, you can get a lot of juicy tomatoes.

In late March or early April, it is time to sow seeds for seedlings. As soon as the seedlings reach the age of 55-65 days, it can be transplanted into the ground. Seedlings are prepared taking into account the early ripening of tomatoes.They also take into account the climate and the method of cultivation. Each gardener himself determines the exact dates.

The seed is treated with potassium permanganate or aloe juice-based solution. You need to take care of a sufficient number of containers. The containers are filled with special soil, tamped a little and grooved (1 meter deep). Watering is carried out only with warm water, using a spray bottle, so as not to erode the soil.

So that the seedlings appear as early as possible, the container with the seeds is covered with glass or a thick film, creating the effect of a greenhouse. And you also need to provide a suitable temperature regime. The containers are transferred to a warm place.

At the first stages, they do not need lighting, but after the formation of seedlings, the containers are transferred to the sun so that the plants develop further. In the process of leaving, it is necessary to irrigate the soil in a timely manner as it dries. And also mineral-based dressings are used.

The pick is carried out after the appearance of 3-5 true leaves. Saplings are planted in different containers. Peat pots with a nutrient substrate are perfect. A pick is needed for the active growth of the root system. During transplantation, weak bushes are discarded.

A suitable planting scheme for the Hurricane variety is 70x40 centimeters.

Landing holes are made in advance. A portion of the compost is added to each of them. Further, fertilizing with mineral compositions is carried out. As the bushes grow, as well as during the formation of the crop, the soil is fed with complex compounds (2-3 times per season). Choose drugs that contain nitrogen, phosphorus or potassium.

Bushes can suffer from late blight. This fungal infection often attacks the Uragan variety. You can identify it by the brown spots on the leaves. The risk of infection increases with temperature changes.

To protect the beds from undesirable consequences, you need to periodically take preventive measures. Plants are sprayed with formulations with a high copper content. To make the treatment as effective as possible, the lower leaves are removed before starting work.

Experienced gardeners are advised to regularly loosen the topsoil. Such a procedure creates an unfavorable habitat for fungi and viruses. Another common way to protect your garden is to use boric acid. This component is highly effective. Folk recipes are also widespread. Plants can be sprayed with potassium permanganate, a solution of liquid soap or garlic. Any of the mixtures repels pests and dangerous pathogens.

And also the culture loves moderate irrigation. It is highly undesirable to use cold water. It negatively affects the bushes of fruit crops. The ideal option is warm and settled water. So that the water does not evaporate too quickly, the ground around the bushes is covered with a layer of mulch. It is recommended to opt for organic matter - leaves, sawdust, straw or hay. Organic matter decomposes naturally over time and acts as an additional nourishment.

When growing the Hurricane variety, it is imperative to perform the formation of bushes.The optimal number of stems is 1 or 2. When choosing any of the options, tomatoes will bear fruit abundantly, and it will be easy to care for them and examine them for symptoms of diseases. And also the garter and pinching are required. The first procedure is carried out so that the shoots do not lean to the ground under the weight of the vegetables, and removing the stepsons will allow you to grow large and juicy vegetables.
