How to grow
Sprouts are planted only after the soil has warmed up... Seeds are sown two months before the planned transplant. February-March are the best months for planting seeds.
Seed preparation
Seed preparation will accelerate and increase germination and will prevent various infections.
Preparation of planting material:
- All seeds are examined and selected germinable material. Blackened and damaged ones are removed, the seeds are left in the correct even shape. An easier way is to salt the water and soak the planting material in it for 30 minutes. The spoiled seeds float to the surface, they are removed.
- To prevent disease the seeds are treated with a disinfecting solution. Use hydrogen peroxide or potassium permanganate. The seeds are soaked in the selected product for two hours, and then thoroughly washed with water.
- For early germination soaked for 12 hours in a growth stimulator. The drug is purchased in stores, aloe juice is used from home remedies.
Capacity and soil
Sift the seeds into one large container, for this use trays and boxes. When growing several bushes, seeds are sown immediately into a pot. For this, peat pots and tablets are suitable. When the plant has grown, it is dived and transplanted into a separate container, at least 300 g in size.
Choose light soils... There is a large selection of soil for planting tomatoes in stores. Let's prepare the soil at home, for this they take peat, turf and humus in equal proportions. The soil is light and nutritious. Not only seeds are disinfected, but also soil and container. The earth is calcined in the oven and watered with a solution of potassium permanganate. The containers are sterilized in the oven or kept in a solution of potassium permanganate.
Sowing
Make small grooves at a distance of 3 cm from each other, the depth of which does not exceed 2 cm. Seeds are poured with an interval of 2 cm. Sprinkle with soil on top.
Abundant watering is not required, enough humidification from a spray bottle. Cover with foil or a transparent lid. Put in a warm place. Seeds are planted in other ways as well. Below is one of the most interesting and unusual ways.
Growing seedlings without land
We need a plastic food tray... Line the bottom of the container with soft paper. Cover with several layers of paper on top. The paper is covered with a film, in which several holes are made. Moisturize as it dries, use a spray bottle for this.
With this method of planting, plants dive into containers. with the ground immediately after the appearance of the cotyledon leaves. If this does not happen, they turn yellow and die due to lack of nutrients.
Growing and care
With proper seedling care the plants will calmly transfer the transplant to a permanent place.
How to do it right:
- As soon as two or three real leaves appear, we immediately dive into separate containers.
- Remove plants carefully from the ground without damaging the center root.
- Place the plant carefully in a new location.
Moisturize the soil only as it dries... Watered with settled water at room temperature, without touching the plant itself.
During the period of growing seedlings, fertilize the soil at least three times... Fertilizers should contain a balanced complex of nutrients. Ten days after transplanting, fertilize for the first time for the last - three days before transplanting into the ground. A second feeding is carried out between them.
Before transplanting into the ground, the plant is hardened... It is produced if the average air temperature is above + 8 ° C.The seedlings are taken out into the fresh air for 30 minutes, in the following they gradually increase the time spent outside.
How to grow tomatoes
Plants are abundantly watered and fed three days before planting, since after transplanting the soil they are not moistened for two weeks.
The beds for transplanting seedlings are prepared in the fall... They are cleared of plant residues, and the soil is dug up. The soil is fertilized with ash and humus. In the spring, they dig up the ground again. Disinfect the soil by pouring a solution of potassium permanganate or copper sulfate.
Dig holes, the distance between them is kept 50-60 cm... The distance between the rows is 60–70 cm. The seats are staggered, this saves space. Before planting, the seedlings are carefully removed from the pots along with a lump of earth and placed in the holes, forming the roots towards the center. Wells with plants are filled with water at room temperature. When the water is absorbed, they are covered with soil.
Plant care
There are no difficulties in caring for a tomato Krasnoby f1... You just need to water regularly, loosen the soil and periodically fertilize the soil. Foliar top dressing is important.
Important: The hybrid is intended for cultivation in greenhouses - in open field conditions, the fruits will not have time to ripen.
Stepchildren develop poorly, so the plant does not waste nutrients on excess greens... It is still necessary to remove the "empty" shoots in order to form one stem - the stem.
Features of cultivation and possible difficulties
When growing a tomato Krasnobay, a novice gardener faces a number of difficulties:
- The bush grows too tall, garter and pinching required.
- When the soil is poor few ovaries are formed - increase the amount of dressings.
- The formation of an excess amount of greenery on the plant speaks of oversaturation of the soil, as a result, the fruits become smaller and slowly ripen.
- The fruits grow small... By reducing the number of flowers, you will increase the weight of the fruit.
- Cracking and watery fruit - this means that too much foliage has been removed, and all the water has gone into the tomatoes.

If the tomato is still ripe, it is sent for artificial ripening. Select dry, with intact skin, no damage. For storage, put the spout down.
To reduce the risk of mechanical damage, do not stack more than two layers of vegetables in one container. Ripe fruits can lie outside the refrigerator for up to four days at room temperature. In more optimal conditions, they are stored for up to several months.
The fruits are suitable for both fresh consumptionand for canning.
