We sow seeds for seedlings
We cook low (10-15 cm) boxes for seedlings. We fill them with purchased (it is more reliable) soil, water. Preparing seeds for planting. First, we sort. Soak large seeds without defects for 15 minutes in a manganese solution, discard small and damaged seeds.
We make shallow grooves, lay out the seeds. Scheme - 7 cm * 4 cm.We fall asleep with humus mixed with earth, a layer of 1.5 cm. You will need a cling film. It is convenient for her to close the seedling box, she transmits light, retains the necessary moisture in the soil.
25 ° C is the optimum air temperature in the room where the seedlings are. When seedlings appear, reduce the temperature to 18 ° C. Seedlings dive when two true leaves are formed.
After 50 days, the seedlings can be hardened. At 55 days of age, she is ready for a transplant. If you grow Lazy in a greenhouse, you can plant seedlings after 45 days. Tempered on the balcony, outside or open the window at night. Night temperature for hardening seedlings is 8 ° C.
Planting and care features
Prepare the ground a week before planting. Only on light, loose soil can a rich harvest be grown. Therefore, add humus, sand, ash for digging. In addition, apply mineral fertilizers:
- Ammonium nitrate.
- Superphosphate.
- Potassium nitrate.
Observe the fertilizer dosage indicated on the package.
Landing scheme
Each variety, due to its characteristics, requires compliance with a specific scheme when forming planting holes. Since the Lazy-eyed variety is undersized and the tomato bushes are compact, 1 sq. m can accommodate up to 6 plants.
It is better to drive the supporting pegs before planting the seedlings, the roots of the seedlings will be more intact. Transplant seedlings from cups into holes, cover roots with earth, water. For better root formation use "Kornevin". Prepare the solution according to the instructions.
Top dressing
Feed the tomato with fertilizers twice a season. The first time is two weeks after the transplant. You can prepare a solution of urea (1 tablespoon per 10 liters of water). If categorically against chemistry, then the herb infusion. The second root dressing should be carried out during flowering or ovary formation.
Reference. Nitrogen fertilizers are not used in the second half of summer. They lead to excessive formation of green mass and delayed fruiting.
Watering
For 10 days after planting, you can not water the tomatoes. Until the plant has taken root, the moisture consumption is low. In the future, water abundantly once a week in cloudy weather, 2 - in hot weather.

I liked the name and photo on the package. There is little time for care: children, work, summer vacations. The tomato harvest was good, despite my rare visit to the dacha. The appearance of the grown fruits and the description on the package matched.
