The nuances of planting and caring for the variety
Tomatoes are supposed to be planted with seedlings, the age of which is 60-65 days. To obtain seedlings, seeds processed in potassium permanganate are planted a couple of centimeters in depth. The soil should be fertile and not heavy. After the appearance of the first true leaves, the seedlings are transplanted into a large container.
Planting rate - 4 plants per square meter. If the greenhouse has a heating system, it means that you can plant seedlings in April. May is more suitable for open ground and unheated greenhouses. A week before planting, the plant begins to harden - this makes the tomato easier to adapt. You can plant seedlings in open ground or in a film greenhouse. Since the variety is different in height, the plants should be tied up. This can be done vertically or horizontally.
Further care consists in regular watering and loosening of the soil. Oxygen access to the plant roots is important, so loosening should be done regularly. It is recommended to use Aelita - Vegetable fertilizers as a top dressing, which contain minerals necessary for growth.
Top dressing is needed 2-3 times during the entire growing season.To grow full-fledged tomatoes, weeding is necessary. Do not water plants with cold water - this will negatively affect their growth and development.
