GROWING EARLY VARIETIES OF TOMATO

Growing early tomatoes is a rather curious occupation. Any person, at least once carried away, will never give up this business.

If you wholeheartedly approach these rather unpretentious plants, they will surely reward you with a generous harvest and surprise you with a variety of colors, varieties and tastes.

Tomatoes include almost the entire vitamin complex, including carotene and ascorbic acid. Have a long growing season, from germination to ripening of the first fruit takes about 95-100 days.

Fruiting in open ground continues until the first autumn frosts.

The value of preserving the first flower brush in early tomatoes

The first flower brush in early varieties is laid after the formation of seven or eight leaflets, then the buds are dormant and dormant buds, which are located in the axils of the lower leaves. They will give stepchildren or side shoots.

In the early-ripening variety, each subsequent brush of the main shoot is laid out after about one or two leaves. Also laid the first brush on the upper stepson, under the first flower brush of the main shoot.

If the plant is formed in two or three shoots, then the side stepsons are left in the leaf axils under the first flower brush of the main shoot, and the bottom stepsons are necessarily removed.

Standard varieties are usually not stepson because they branch less than non-standard varieties. Along with the growth of the plant, new floral brushes are formed, but their formation delays the fruiting of the first brushes.

That is why, in order to get an earlier harvest, they limit the number of ovaries by pinching the main shoot over the fourth brush, and in greenhouses even over the second one.

Of great importance in obtaining early tomatoes is the preservation of the flowers of the first flower brush. Often they fall off at low temperatures and high humidity, as well as with a lack of phosphorus and an excess of nitrogen in the soil. The cause of abscission may be excessive soil moisture without air access to the roots of the plant.

For the preservation of flowers and ovaries in the early varieties using growth promoters. When spraying such a drug, the percentage of abscission decreases and the quality of the fruit increases. Become more fleshy, large and increases the percentage of dry matter. The effect of stimulants is better expressed when the plant is provided with water and nutrients.

Seed quality has a tremendous importance in increasing yields and accelerating the ripening of tomatoes. Hardening of already swollen seeds with low temperature and the mandatory hardening of seedlings contribute to an increase in early production. Such seedlings are planted two weeks earlier than usual, it will withstand short-term frosts with no wind and will not shed flowers.

Care for early tomato varieties

Care for early tomatoes is feeding and watering, which is especially important during the fruiting period. For the growth of early-ripening tomatoes, the optimum temperature is 20-25 ° C. If the temperature is below 15 ° C, flowering stops temporarily, and at below 10 ° C, the growth of tomatoes also stops.

If the temperature is too high, the yield will also decrease, so the pollen loses its viability. With increasing humidity, plants are affected by bacterial and fungal diseases.

Relative humidity should not be more than 60%, therefore, when grown under film shelters or hotbeds, fresh air is constantly required.

But before the soil moisture early tomatoes make high demands, especially when fruiting. With insufficient moisture, one can observe the twisting of the leaves, the falling off of the ovaries, the defeat of the vertex rot, the shredding of the fruits.

Therefore, before the early ripening of early tomatoes, watering is carried out infrequent and moderate, and during fruiting, after two or three harvests, depending on the soil condition and weather conditions. And the plants love watering through furrows made. When drying out the soil, get cracked fruit.

Also, tomatoes are demanding to the presence of phosphorus. If the phosphorus nutrition is not provided for growing seedlings, then the following phosphate fertilizers will not help in obtaining an early harvest.

An excess of nitrogen will lead to "fattening" of the plant and a delay in fruiting, and its deficiency will lead to weak growth of the leaves, which will not ensure normal fruiting. Potassium is also required during the whole growing season.
