- The plantings are covered with foil until the first shoots appear.
- Then the film is removed and cultivation is continued until two true leaves appear on the bushes.
- After the seedlings are dived into separate containers. So it grows for another two weeks in a sunny place indoors.
- After this period, the ground is fertilized for the first time.
Plants should be transplanted into the greenhouse at the age of 60–65 days. Then 6-7 true leaves are formed on the bush. After transplanting to a permanent place of growth, the tomatoes are fertilized three more times, and they also take care of the bushes. It consists in the following manipulations:
- Weeding.
- Watering and loosening the soil.
- Garter and pinning.
- Treatment with poisons from diseases and pests.
For the fruits to sing together, you need to trim the lower leaves. Then all the nutrients will go into the growth of vegetables, and not a bush. Plants are fed: during flowering, formation of ovaries, ripening of tomatoes.
Plants of the Dorodny variety respond well to feeding and frequent watering, but this should not be abused. With excessive soil moisture, the root system can rot, the plants will die. Also, in too humid climates, fungus develops well. Therefore, all manipulations must be carried out in moderation.
Harvesting is carried out as the fruits ripen. If ripe tomatoes are hanging on the branches, then the plant will not have enough energy to ripen green vegetables.
Weeding and loosening the soil will help get rid of the grass that absorbs nutrients and the fungus that actively develops in the airless soil.
