The opinions of summer residents

Reviews that can be read on the forums, as always, are contradictory. Some are happy with everything, others have complaints. This is normal, because everyone has their own perception of taste. Planting this or that variety has different goals.

Valery, 42 years old:

“This season I grew Liang for the first time. I hardly looked after tomatoes. Scheme - planted and forgotten. I did not remove my stepsons, I did not tie the branches, I did not put a support. With all these "not" the harvest was not bad. I don’t complain about the taste, because the variety is still early ”.

Sergey, 64 years old:

“The variety is reliable. Does not fail, bears fruit even with prolonged rains. I have been planting for many years. I buy seeds one bag at a time, enough for 2 years. I don’t sow much. In early July, 5-6 bushes are enough for us to eat. "

The truth about boarding and leaving

The truth is that low-growing and early-maturing Liang tomatoes grown in DG require minimal maintenance. With them, you can begin your practice for novice vegetable growers. Who planted the variety will agree with this opinion.

More often, Liang's tomato is propagated by sowing seeds for seedlings. If you have a greenhouse in a southern climate, you can sow seeds directly into the ground. Sowing times in different climatic zones are different - they sow seeds from February to April.

growing tomatoes

Seedlings before planting in the garden need to be fed 2 times with liquid complex fertilizers... Time spent on seedlings always gives results - a guaranteed early harvest.

Strong tomato bushes with 5-7 leaves, 25-35 cm tall, can be planted on a ridge. If there is a danger of frost, place a temporary shelter. It can be made two-layer:

  1. Non-woven covering material - 1 layer.
  2. PVC film - 2 layer.

Care

Care has its own characteristics. Lyana does not need support, unlike the early large-fruited semi-determinant varieties, the bushes of which require a garter and removal of stepsons. Liang's tomato is unpretentious in leaving.

A minimum of agrotechnical techniques is needed:

  • watering;
  • 2-3 fertilizing with organic or mineral compounds;
  • weeding and loosening of ridges.

The list of activities is small. Such a variety is a godsend for a summer resident employed at work. It is recommended to combine weeding and loosening of ridges with watering: in the evening he watered, the next day he pulled out the weeds and loosened the aisles.

planting tomatoes

If there is a lawn in the country, then mowed and slightly dried lawn grass can save water for irrigation. The grass can be used as a mulch, which will not only prevent moisture evaporation from the soil: dry mulch on the ridge will protect the roots from overheating, and the bushes from rot and pests.

Fertilizers and disease prevention measures

Tobacco mosaic is a viral disease that is easier to prevent than to cure. Greenhouse tomatoes are more likely to suffer from this disease.

The following factors can lead to an outbreak of the disease:

  • poor ventilation;
  • frequent planting scheme for seedlings;
  • excess moisture in the air.

Preventive measures that can prevent a viral disease:

  1. Disinfection of seeds.
  2. Treatment of seedling boxes with fungicide.
  3. 10 days before transplanting into the ground, treat the soil with phytosporin or spill with a solution of potassium permanganate.
  4. Root and foliar dressing with mineral fertilizers.

Easy-to-use dry fertilizer Kemira-universal will make life much easier for the gardener. No need to prepare an aqueous solution. Before watering, the granules are simply scattered over the surface of the ridge. They will dissolve after watering.
