Timing of fertilizer application

If shoots have appeared, then after 14 days you can carry out the first fertilizing with fertilizers, apply them directly under the root of the plant, after watering procedures, preferably in the morning.

Various formulations can be used as top dressing or fertilizer:

1. Fermented manure or mullein.
2. Strong infusion of onion skins.
3. Diluted chicken manure.
4. Crushed egg shells.
5. And also wood ash.

Fertilizer can be selected independently, for this, take into account the characteristics of the soil, as well as the characteristics of the variety.

It is not forbidden to fertilize on the full moon, as well as on the waning moon.

Normalization of bushes

This is the removal of inflorescences that did not bear fruit, the so-called stepchildren. It is carried out in the standard way.

If the inflorescence has turned into a fruit, but it does not develop, then it is also removed, provided that there is one large or medium-sized tomato on the bush. Don't forget to pinch the tops. It is better to carry out such procedures when the Virgo sign enters the lunar phase.

If you are going to prune the bushes, then it is better to do it during the waning period, when the Moon passes through the sign of Aries or Leo.

Irrigation

There are no strict restrictions on watering - you can carry it out on any day, but given the peculiarities of the lunar calendar, it is advisable to carry out such procedures on the following days:

• better on a waning moon;
• when she is in Leo, Cancer, Pisces, and also Scorpio.

Reference: it is not advisable to carry out such procedures when the Moon is in Libra, Gemini and Aquarius.

Treatment from diseases and pests

If the plant requires processing and protection from pests, then such procedures should be carried out during the waning moon, and in its last quarter.

But it is better to “deliver” the vaccine on the new moon or closer to the full moon, provided that the phase of Aries, Leo or Sagittarius has come.

Tomato weeding

It is recommended to follow a few rules, they will help get rid of weeds.

Scheme of action:

1. On the waning Moon in the sign of Leo, you will have to dig up the earth.
2. Dig up the garden again and weed it from the already sprouted weeds when the planet is in the sign of Capricorn.
3. Then loosen the soil again, dig it up again with the waning moon.
4. When the plants begin to bloom, then weeding is on the waning Moon, preferably in the sign of Capricorn.

If you do everything right, then the tomatoes will please you with a harvest, they will surprise you with a large size. To do this, you will have to loosen the soil, water the plants, remove weeds on the indicated days, following the precepts of the calendar.
