Growing and Care Tips

• Sowing should be done in March, on previously prepared and lightly compacted soil, mulched over top with a soil layer or peat. The layer of mulch should not exceed 1 cm.
• Next, the seedlings should be poured with warm water through a sieve so as not to blur the thin top layer. Cover the container with foil and place in a warm place. The recommended temperature for germination is +25 degrees.

• When the seedlings hatch, the film should be removed, and the seedlings should be moved to a bright place. And during the first week, maintain the temperature regime within + 14-16 degrees, after increasing to + 20-22 degrees.
• The appearance of the first true leaves means that the time has come to dive the sprouts into separate containers.
• At the age of 60-65 days, when the sprouts will already have 6-7 leaves and the first flower brush will form, the seedlings should be transplanted to a permanent habitat.

• It is recommended to plant bushes at a distance of half a meter from each other, and put organic fertilizers in the holes before planting.
• In the process of growth, the tomato requires the formation of one or two stems and tying to a support, as the plant tends to bend under the weight of the fruit.
• Despite the name, the King is not too picky about care and care. It is enough to provide tomatoes with regular watering and periodic top dressing, as well as from time to time loosen the soil between the bushes and hill them up.

The ripening of fruits occurs gradually, which allows you to enjoy them until September.
