The first thing to do for growing tomatoes in this way - to prepare in advance seedlings. Plant seeds need to 1-1.5 months ahead of schedule. So, if you normally start to grow seedlings in early March, then the seeds should sprout in early February. This is necessary in order to keep pace with tomatoes in development since the crop.
If you sow in the period from 1 to 10 February, then a month later, in early March, should be cut. The process is as follows:
- Use scissors to crop seedlings, so that the bottom left of the sheet 3. In this case, the stalks by this time must have been quite large.
- If for some reason the seedlings grow slowly, it is possible to feed its Kornestimom and athletes.
- After a while, after the circumcision in the axils of plants should appear stepchildren. They need to be grown so that the formation of the plant went to 3 of the stem.
Trim need only 1 time. Further seedling cultivation takes place according to the standard method. At the time of landing of tomatoes in the open field or in a greenhouse, they should be formed in the stem 3.
If the cultivation of tomatoes on the Chinese method is carried out for the first time, it is best not to cut off once the whole seedlings. For the first time enough to try at 3-4 stalks. It is desirable that they were of different kinds. Judging by the way they will behave in terms of productivity, it will be possible to determine which varieties grow better in the next year.
With a favorable outcome at the time of transplanting should already have buds. But this is optional. Even if it does not blossom, it will happen some time after landing in the ground. Due to the fact that the stems 3 inflorescences per plant turns out 3 times. In this case, large fruits are always a lot.
But there is another important point (especially tomato planted in the greenhouse). Without pollination, the fruit does not appear even when a large number of inflorescences. It is therefore necessary to make artificial pollination.
This can be done as follows:
- need slightly shake the flower brush;
- to strengthen the pollen on the pistil should be good to shed dirt and sprayed from a spray inflorescence;
- carry out this procedure is best early in the morning, about 2 times a week.
If done correctly, the tomato harvest will be good, even in the cold and rainy summer. The first fruits ripen even on the branches. Collect better both red and green. This way of harvesting allows you to control the degree of maturity, to prevent perespevaniya or rotting.
If the tomatoes grown in the open ground, may have to collect the fruits still green. We need to focus on the weather conditions, since in different climatic zones, they are different.
