Rules for planting seeds and planting seedlings

To get a rich harvest, it is not enough just to put seeds in the ground and sprinkle them. Follow the instructions below.

Step 1. It is necessary to take a solution of nitrophoska (1 teaspoon) and add it to a liter of water. In the absence of a special solution, it can be replaced with ash.

Nitrophoska granules

Step 2. They take special bags made of fabric or just a cotton cloth, soak with a solution. Then the seeds are placed in the bags.

Seed hardening

Step 3. The seeds must be placed in the refrigerator for 2-3 days. This procedure is known as hardening. In this case, the seeds should be wrapped in a bag.

Step 4. For seedlings to be high-yielding, you need to prepare the soil. To do this, you need to take humus, earth and peat in equal parts. After that, the soil is fertilized with potassium, urea and superphosphate. To disinfect the resulting composition, it is placed in the oven for half an hour. Only then can the soil be moistened and scattered over the boxes.

Preparing the soil for seedlings

Step 5. Do not put seeds close to each other. The minimum distance between them is 2 cm. There is no need to water the seeds after planting. It is advisable to cover the boxes with plastic bags to create a greenhouse effect that will accelerate germination. After the first plants sprout, the bags are removed.

Sowing tomato seeds

The container is covered with cling film

Step 6. About a week after germination, a dive is carried out (transplanting plants into a larger container). To do this, each tomato is carefully removed with a small lump of soil and placed in another pot.

When diving into boxes, seedlings are placed according to the 8x8 or 10x10 cm scheme

Step 7. Seedlings can stay in boxes for about 2 months. In this case, you need to ensure that it does not stretch out. Before planting tomatoes in the greenhouse, it is necessary to harden them. To do this, they can be taken out to the balcony or open the vents at night.

Hardening of seedlings

Step 8. Before planting, the soil must be disinfected. To do this, add a tablespoon of copper sulfate to 10 liters of water and water the soil. If the land has not been pre-treated in the fall, it is advisable to remove about 10 cm of soil that may be contaminated.

It is worth noting that copper sulfate is far from a safe substance, so it should be used very carefully.

Step 9. Humus is introduced into the ground, weeds are removed.It is necessary to plant plants in warm soil. Otherwise, the roots will not grow and may start to rot. Do not plant the plants very deeply as this will slow down growth due to the formation of additional roots on the lower part of the stem. Before planting, the tomatoes are watered.

Manure as fertilizer for the soil

Step 10. When planting tall tomato seedlings, you must immediately peg. This will allow you to avoid injury to the roots in the future.

Growing tomatoes in a greenhouse

Growing tomatoes in a greenhouse is not easy, because this culture is capricious, demanding on growing conditions. But any summer resident can get and collect a generous crop of tomatoes.

Useful Tips

2. Top dressing by spraying will ensure the appearance of ovaries. For this, you can use a boric acid solution. But it is necessary to spray after 16.00.
3. Iodine feeding will positively affect the flowering process. To prepare a solution, 40 drops of iodine are diluted in 12 liters of water.
4. It is important to remove the lower leaves. This will improve ventilation and will not affect the yield in any way. The best time for this procedure is in the morning.
5. To get large tomatoes, it is necessary to pinch the growth points and remove the shoots from the side.

Signs of plant disease

Most of the plants grown in greenhouses are disease resistant hybrids. However, lack of light, excessive moisture in the air and contaminated soil can cause infection.

Signs of tomato disease

Tomatoes that are sick can be seen immediately. In addition to external changes, they will not give a large yield and can dry out very quickly despite timely watering. The most common diseases are listed below.

1. Streak... Yellow spots appear on the stems and fruits. The leaves become dry and twisted, and the flowers crumble. If the plant is completely infected, then it can die in a short time. Most often, the virus that causes this disease develops when there is insufficient lighting.

2. White spot... The name of the disease characterizes it. First, white spots form on the lower leaves due to fungal infection, and then rise up. Then black dots appear on the spots. The most common fungal infection occurs in the second half of summer.

3. Cracked fruit... This happens as a result of improper watering, especially when there is an excess of it after a drought. As a result, cracks form in the fruit, where infections and viruses develop.

The disease develops very quickly and, if you cut the stem, you can see the voids inside it and the presence of fluid. In some cases, brown spots can be seen. The disease is not cured. All affected tomatoes must be destroyed, and the rest must be treated with "Fitolavin".
