How to grow tomatoes?

Growing seedlings can either increase the future harvest or ruin the plant, so it requires careful attention. Seedlings are sold ready-made in stores, but experts recommend growing them at home.

Sowing of seeds is done in early spring, 2 months before planting in the main location.

It is necessary to pay attention to some features:

• The seeds must be carefully selected using a solution of water and salt: those seeds that float can be thrown away, and the rest can be planted;
• Germination can be increased by germinating the seeds. To do this, place the seeds in gauze soaked in warm water, wrap it up, and leave it in a warm place for several days;
• the soil must be prepared in advance, drainage must be poured into the bottom of the container, and the soil must be placed on it;
• the seeds are planted in furrows about 2 cm deep and watered from a watering can;
• The seedling box is covered with regular film and left in a dark and warm place, while the soil must be constantly watered. When sprouts appear, the container can be placed in the sun, but the seedlings must be protected from direct rays.

Before the seedlings are planted in place, they need to be hardened off: every day, the box with the seedlings can be taken out into the fresh air for 2 hours.
