The land before planting tomatoes is fertilized with minerals - nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium. Feeding is also needed during the growing season.

Seeds germinate when the temperature rises to 15 degrees. In the south of Russia and Ukraine, seedlings are moved to open ground starting from the third decade of April, in the middle lane - from May 10 to May 25. 7 hybrid bushes are planted per 1 square meter. For seedling cultivation:

1. Harvested early.
2. Tomatoes do not die from frost.
