Agrotechnology

• Sowing seeds for seedlings is carried out from mid-March to the end of April, depending on climatic conditions and the future habitat of tomato bushes.

• Seedlings dive after the appearance of the first pair of true leaves.
• To prevent sprouts from stretching, seedlings should be provided with uniform lighting.
• 7-10 days before the seedlings move to a permanent place of residence, the bushes should begin to "walk" to harden and facilitate adaptation after transplantation.
• Disembarkation scheme - 3 bushes per 1 sq. m. Due to a denser planting, plants may develop nutrient and sunlight deficiencies, which will negatively affect fruiting and yields.

• Tall tomatoes need tying up and forming a bush. You can tie up the bushes already 3-4 days after planting in the ground, when they are already sufficiently rooted and stronger.
• The largest tomatoes grow when forming a bush in one stem, but formation in two stems is also possible.
• To prevent superficial development of the root system, the first two weeks after planting, seedlings should not be watered. The roots will deepen and become stronger, making the plants stronger and more resilient.

• Further, standard care methods apply: regular watering and loosening of the soil, fertilizing plants with organic fertilizers and mineral mixtures, periodic removal of lower leaves and stepchildren.

“The red buffalo is a striking tomato and a mesmerizing sight: huge tomatoes hang, and the stem does not even bend under their weight. On the break, the tomato has sugar pulp, and one such tomato is enough for a salad, there will still be more. ”

Evgeny Afonin, Chelyabinsk:

“The summer has been rainy and cold, especially at night. But the tomato showed “buffal stubbornness” and, in spite of everything, pleased us with a rich harvest.”
