Let's look at the growing features of the "Boyarynya" variety. To obtain the highest possible yield, it's essential to follow all agricultural practices. This tomato is a mid-season variety and is suitable for growing indoors. Therefore, seeds for seedlings should be sown in late March or early April. The optimal temperature for germination is 21 to 25°C.

Seedlings should be pricked out, or transplanted into larger containers, after two true leaves emerge. After pricking out, the plant's root system begins to develop and strengthen. They should be planted in the ground in early May, or at the latest in late May. Some gardeners begin to break off leaves when the leaves become dense, but this should be avoided, especially when growing tomatoes in greenhouses and hotbeds. The most important thing is to remember to remove side shoots, otherwise you risk losing a large portion of the harvest.

When planting plants in a greenhouse, it is important to remember that they do not tolerate low temperatures; at +15 ºС their growth stops and the ovaries fall off completely.

Boyarynya tomatoes should be watered infrequently but thoroughly, and remember to hill them up, as without this, the roots will not be able to deliver the necessary water and mineral fertilizers for plant growth and development. When watering, follow the instructions and never allow water to splash on the leaves. Watering should be done strictly at the roots to prevent disease.

When growing tomatoes in greenhouses, remember that temperatures above 32°C are harmful to them, as their leaves begin to curl and blossoms to fall off. Therefore, it's important to monitor the temperature and ensure adequate ventilation.
