Care instructions

Tomato is recommended for growing in film greenhouses and greenhouses. Feedback from experienced gardeners about experiments with growing tomatoes in open ground is disappointing.

• It is recommended to sow seeds for seedlings from late February to early March.
• It is advisable to sow immediately in separate containers and it is better if these are peat cups. "Berberana" is very hard to endure the pick.
• Seedlings need additional light and moderate but regular watering with warm water.
• After the formation of the first true leaves, the first feeding should be done.
• In May, seedlings are transplanted into a greenhouse. It is important that the soil in the greenhouse warms up.
• Before planting, the soil must be loosened and mixed with humus.
• Sprawling plants need space for normal development. Therefore, for 1 sq. meter is enough to plant 3-4 bushes.
• Water tomatoes preferably with warm water.
• It is recommended to form bushes in one or two stems. It is obligatory to tie not only the trunk, but also the branches, because of the tendency to break off under the weight of the fruit.
• Tomatoes should be fed every 15 days until fruiting is complete.

The yield of this tomato is excellent. True, there were some difficulties in the process. The brushes hung down to the ground, I had to put additional supports. Tomatoes were born large, the weight even reached 600 grams. Very tasty and fragrant.
