Agrotechnology

• Seeds are sown in late March or early April.
• Before sowing, it is advisable to soak the seeds in warm water, pre-wrapped in gauze.
• Tomatoes are sown on lightly compacted soil, then sprinkled with soil or peat layer no more than 1 cm.
• Next, the crops should be carefully shed, covered with foil and put in a warm place.
• After germination, the film should be removed, and young shoots should be provided with light and heat.
• In the phase of the appearance of the first pair of true leaves, the sprouts need to dive into separate cups or pots.
• One and a half to two weeks before planting in the ground, the plants must begin to harden, leaving young tomato bushes in the fresh air. This makes it easier for them to adapt to their permanent place of residence.
• At the age of 60-65 days, seedlings can be planted, provided that the threat of frost has passed.
• As the bushes grow, they need to be formed into two stems. And also, given the violent growth of plants, they should be tied to a trellis in advance, which will greatly facilitate the subsequent harvest.
• Klepa does not need abundant watering, so it is enough to make sure that the soil does not dry out. In addition to watering, plants respond well to fertilizing and loosening the soil.
