Planting seeds for seedlings should be 20-25 days before transplanting to a permanent place. Growing seedlings of this variety is no different from growing other varieties of tomatoes.

In the shade, the bushes will also bear fruit well, but the harvest will ripen longer.

Growing and care

Further care consists in regular watering, loosening the soil, removing weeds and making regular fertilizing. Tomato bushes should be watered every 2-3 days, you need to make sure that the top layer of the soil does not dry out. In hot weather, the number of waterings is increased, and in rainy weather, it is reduced.

Important! After watering, you need to mulch the soil to prevent it from drying out.

Top dressing is applied several times per season: after transplanting seedlings into open ground, during flowering and during the ripening period. Usually, the application of organic matter and mineral fertilizers alternates.

On a note. These vegetables respond well to fertilization - more ovaries are formed, the fruits ripen faster. Only after the beginning of flowering is it necessary to significantly reduce the amount of nitrogen fertilizers.
