How to grow

Tomato Raspberry

The technological process of planting the Golden Fleece is no different from other tomatoes.

In the fall, they begin to prepare the soil for vegetables. They dig up, add compost, ash, crushed egg shells. Choose a sunlit area. Heat refers to indicators that are mainly due to:

  • growth rates;
  • aging;
  • harvest volume.

Soil moistening is less significant than warmth. The normal development of a tomato bush depends on air humidity: it does not exceed 50-60% (60-65% - in the first 3 months). If the relative humidity is high, then:

  • the pollination of flowers becomes more complicated, they fall off;
  • cultures are affected by fungal infections: black leg, late blight;
  • plants are stretched;
  • the yield goes down.

Growing

Light loam and sandy loam are ideal for growing vegetables.

When cultivating crops adhere to crop rotation: it is forbidden to plant after pepper and other plants from the Solanaceae family.The best predecessors for plants:

  • cucumbers and carrots;
  • zucchini and dill;
  • parsley and cauliflower.

How to plant seedlings

By its ripening nature, the Golden Fleece is an early ripening vegetable. It is recommended to sow the planting material in the last decade of March or early April. The multi-stage seed planting method is noted.

Tomato Negritok

Before planting, the seeds are calibrated: sick and damaged specimens are manually rejected. It is possible to use a solution that is prepared from 1 tbsp. l. kitchen salt and 1 liter of water. The seed is immersed in liquid for 5 minutes. The emergence of seeds to the surface indicates their unsuitability. Presowing treatment with growth stimulants is suitable:

  • Immunocytophyte and Zircon;
  • Ideal and Epin;
  • Kornevin.

Seed material is wrapped in a light cloth and placed in the solution for 6 hours. The extracted seeds are only dried.

On a note. Store growth stimulants are replaced with wood ash: for 1000 ml of water - 1 tbsp. l.

Fungicides are used to disinfect the planting material:

  • Quadris;
  • Aktobat;
  • Ridomil.

Seeds undergo stratification 5 days before planting in a permanent place. They are placed on the bottom shelf of the refrigerator for half an hour. The residence time is gradually increasing and reaches 2 hours. The hardening process increases the plant's resistance to temperature fluctuations and increases yields.

Use soil from a store or prepare it yourself, mixing earth with coarse sand and humus in equal proportions. Add half a glass of wood ash. Fill the seedling containers. Watered with a slightly pink solution of potassium permanganate. Instead of chemical treatment, it is possible to heat the soil in an oven at 100 ºС.

The seeding depth of seeds is up to 1.5 cm, the distance from each other is 5 cm.

To speed up the emergence of sprouts, cover with polyethylene and place in a warm place. The film is removed when forming 2 sheets. They dive into individual cassettes, which are filled with new earth.

Planting bushes

To prevent elongation of the plants, the container with the seedlings is turned over weekly in the opposite direction.

2 weeks before the planned planting, the seedlings are hardened. First ventilate the room where they are. Then they are taken out to the balcony or veranda for 15 minutes. The time spent on the street is gradually increased to several hours. Healthy seedlings have a rich green leaf color, growth is more than 20 cm. If you ignore this procedure, you will have to shelter the plants from the sun and wind until they take root.

Transfer

After 2 months, when 5-7 leaves appear on the seedlings, they are transplanted under a film shelter (second decade of May) or into open ground (early June). The wells are fertilized before planting the crop. Planted according to the scheme:

  • the distance between crops is 40 cm;
  • spacing in row spacing - 60 cm;
  • planting density - 5-7 crops per 1 m2.

How to care

Caring for tomato bushes includes:

  3. Growth retardation, pale color. Feeding is carried out with a mullein solution in a ratio of 1:10;
  4. Growing green mass, fattening plants to the detriment of fruit formation. Do not feed with nitrogen-containing fertilizers;
  5. Violet color of the leaves below. Signals about phosphorus deficiency;
