How to grow seedlings

The time for planting seeds for seedlings is calculated based on the time of planting in the beds - 60 days... In the Urals and Siberia, tomatoes are planted in open ground in June, and in greenhouses in May. In central Russia - a month earlier.

Seed preparation

To begin with, select good seeds - large, even, not empty to the touch... The rest are thrown away. The selected grains are placed in a salt solution (one spoonful of a tablespoon of salt is dissolved in a glass of water). After 15-20 minutes, the glass is checked: the floating grains are removed, and those that have sunk to the bottom are used for planting.

After the seeds are warmed up, placing them in a cotton cloth on central heating radiator. The procedure takes 36-48 hours.

The next stage of seed preparation is disinfection... The grains are placed in a 1% solution of potassium permanganate for 15-20 minutes. After this time, the seeds are washed with warm running water.

Important! Many gardeners argue about the need to disinfect the planting material. Some believe that this procedure has already been carried out at the manufacturing plant, while others note that it is better to do it yourself. In any case, remember that a solution of potassium permanganate will not save you from infections contained inside the seed.

Seeds saturate with oxygen... Scientifically, this procedure is called bubbling.The grains are placed in water heated to +26 - +30 degrees and stirred every hour for 15-18 hours. After this time, or as soon as embryos appear on the seeds, bubbling is stopped.

Sprouted seeds are laid - they are ready to plant, and the rest are soaked in water or biostimulating drugs. Means "Zircon", "Epin", "Immunocytofit" have proven themselves well.

After the seeds are hardened: wrapped in a cotton cloth and a bag, put in a cool place with a temperature of +3 to -2 degrees. A refrigerator, balcony or summer veranda is suitable for this. After 8 hours, the seeds are removed for 8 hours. The procedure is repeated 5-6 times.

Important! The procedure is dangerous because the planting material is easy to spoil if hardened improperly. Therefore, novice summer residents are advised not to harden all the seeds.

Before planting, the seeds are germinated.: the grains are placed on damp gauze or a piece of cotton cloth, laid out on a flat surface (saucers, lids or a Petri dish are suitable for this) and left until embryos of 2-3 mm in size appear. Make sure that the air temperature does not drop below +25 degrees, and the fabric is always wet.

Capacity and soil

Plastic containers (both special and food), cut bottles, packaging from cakes are used as pots... The selected container is disinfected with a strong solution of potassium permanganate.

Important! During the procedure, gloves are put on hands to avoid burns.

The soil for seedlings is bought in a store or compiled independently. Purchased universal mix consists of:

• humus;
• peat;
• river sand.

To make the soil mixture yourself, take:

• garden land - 1 part;
• non-acidic peat - 2 parts;
• sand - 0.5 parts;
• humus or sifted mature compost - 1 part.

It is recommended to add sifted wood ash (or dolomite flour), sphagnum moss and fallen needles.

The earth is treated with boiling water or a solution of potassium permanganateto kill possible fungal spores.

For reference. Garden land is taken from plots where cucumbers, carrots, dill or zucchini used to grow. It is categorically not advised to take soil from under tomatoes, potatoes and other nightshades.

Sowing

The soil is laid out in containers, seeds are placed on top and covered with a layer of earth on top (5-7 mm). With the help of a sprayer, the earth is moistened, the containers are covered with a film and removed to a warm (+23 degrees), bright place, where direct sunlight does not fall.

Growing and care

After the sprouts appear, the film is removed... Seedlings are watered with a spray bottle, syringe or spoon, being careful not to wet the cotyledon leaves.

Plants dive in the phase of the first true leaves... Tomatoes are seated in individual cups with holes made to drain excess liquid. Mineral fertilizers are added to the soil at the rate of 1 tbsp. spoon for 5 liters of soil mixture. One and a half to two weeks after the pick, the tomatoes are fed with complex fertilizer. Top dressing is repeated every 10-14 days.

Water the seedlings as the soil dries up at the root... 2-3 weeks before planting on the beds, the tomatoes begin to harden: they take the seedlings out into the open air, gradually increasing the time spent in cool temperatures and in direct sunlight.

How to grow tomatoes

Experienced gardeners prepare a plot for tomatoes in advance: at the end of the season, humus, fertilizers are applied. Immediately before planting, the soil is spilled with a solution of potassium permanganate.

Landing

For compact standard tomatoes, a distance of 30 cm between bushes is enough, in row spacings - 50 cm each. Trying not to damage the plants, they are taken out of the container along with an earthen lump. They drop it in, almost reaching the first leaves.

Care

Tomatoes of this variety are the real dream of a lazy person.: the most unpretentious and yet fruitful tomatoes are not yet available. Water the tomatoes with warm, settled water as the soil dries. With a lack of watering (for example, once a week), the yield will not decrease, but the juiciness will suffer (the flesh will be dryish) and the size of the tomatoes.

The shade will affect the taste - in poor light, tomatoes will be less sweet.

With each watering, the bushes weed and loosen the soil... They feed the Miracle of a lazy person 3-4 times a summer, alternating mineral and organic fertilizers.

The bushes are tied up so that they do not fall to the groundwhen the fruits begin to ripen.

Shaping and pinning is not necessary - and without this, the bushes grow small and compact.

Features of cultivation and possible difficulties

Watering is an important feature of tomato care... As mentioned above, with a lack of moisture, the pulp becomes dryish, and with abundant watering, tomatoes grow watery and lose their pronounced tomato flavor and aroma.

Well-lit and sun-heated areas are suitable for this variety..

Some summer residents pinch their stepchildren and pick off the leaves - then the fruits receive more light and nutrients and ripen faster.

There are no difficulties in growing... The yield will increase slightly with more careful care, but even in the absence of such, up to 6 kg are harvested from one bush.

Diseases and pests

The variety is resistant to common tomato diseases... The fruits ripen before the onset of outbreaks of fungal diseases, but in cool, humid weather, tomatoes are treated with Fitosporin, Ecosil, and Quadris.

Of the pests on tomatoes, the miracle of the lazy, Colorado beetles are more likely to attack, therefore, the bushes are constantly examined. If insects are found, they are collected in a jar and destroyed.

Some summer residents prepare poison from adult beetles... To do this, a liter jar of adults is collected, poured into a 20-liter bucket and filled with water to the brim. After the beetles gasp (they sink to the bottom), the poison is insisted for another week. Spray tomatoes with a freshly prepared solution diluted with water. The ratio is chosen independently - 1: 1 or 1: 2, having tested the poison on several bushes (different varieties react differently to the poison). Having picked up the necessary proportion, they process all the bushes.

Of chemical preparations, they have worked well: "Commander", "Typhoon", "Bombardier", "Bankol".

Already ripe fruits are attacked by slugs and a bear... To prevent this from happening, tomatoes are removed from the bushes on time.
