How to grow this tomato in your own backyard?

Tomato cultivation begins with treating the seeds with a weak solution of potassium permanganate. After this, they are sown in containers with soil amended with humus or organic fertilizer. To ensure all the seeds germinate, maintain a room temperature of at least 23°C.

After the seedlings have sprouted and 2-3 leaves have appeared, they are pricked out and then hardened off for 1-2 weeks.

When the seedlings are 50-60 days old, they are transplanted into open ground. No more than 3-4 plants can be planted per 1 m² of garden bed. The planting format is 40 x 50 cm, with a recommended distance of 100 cm between rows.

After planting, young bushes should receive their first fertilizer within 10 days. Subsequent fertilizer applications should be made once every 15-20 days. Complex mineral fertilizers are diluted in water. The resulting mixture is poured around each bush. If the plants require organic fertilizer, it is recommended to use cow manure, rotted compost, or chicken manure.

To eliminate the risk of powdery mildew, it is recommended to use Bordeaux mixture to treat the bushes.

A gardener can determine what fertilizer tomato plants need by closely monitoring their condition. For example, if spots appear on the leaves, growth is stunted, or the tops are curling, a phosphorus-rich fertilizer should be applied to each plant.

When leaves turn yellow or bloom prematurely, tomatoes require nitrogen fertilizers, and during the development of rust spots and thinning shoots, potassium nitrate helps.

To prevent the development of various diseases, plants are treated with Fitosporin.

To increase yield, remove all leaves from the plants down to the lower flowering cluster. This is done gradually, starting once the bush reaches 0.18–0.2 m. If fruit has already begun to appear on the branches, remove the smallest ones; this will increase the number of medium- and large-sized fruits.

To ensure the plants thrive, weed regularly and loosen the soil under the bushes to improve gas exchange. Water the bushes with warm water after sunset. To do this, apply a moderate amount of water to each plant after the soil beneath the bush has dried out.
