Seedling feed
Healthy seedlings are the first step to a good and tasty harvest. Even before the plant is planted in the greenhouse, it is necessary to feed it with yeast so that in the future its development is correct.
This fertilization is easy enough. To prepare the mixture, you will need only 1 packet of dry yeast, which must be mixed with 2 tablespoons of sugar, and then pour boiling water. After thorough mixing, it is infused for two hours. In the future, you need to water the seedlings with this solution.
When the spring digging comes, the plants will also have to pay special attention. It will be necessary to prepare the soil in the greenhouse if this was not done in the fall. 1 full bucket of peat and sod land is added to the beds. After that, organic fertilizers are added: wood ash, urea or humus.
Top dressing tomato after planting
By the end of May or the beginning of June, a couple of days after planting, tomatoes require feeding with complex fertilizers with a high content of nitrogen, potassium and phosphorus.
Important! The humidity level in the greenhouse is higher than in the open air, therefore, the plant absorbs useful elements much faster. Therefore, in order for the tomatoes to have time to assimilate everything, you need to slightly reduce the concentration of fertilizers.
Experienced gardeners are advised to do the following trick: add a simple top dressing from nitrophoska and mullein to the soil.
Top dressing during flowering
When the tomatoes start to bloom, it is recommended to use such a simple universal fertilizer as "Sudarushka Tomato". It contains all the elements necessary for proper growth (nitrogen, potassium, phosphorus, copper, etc.). Most importantly, there is no chlorine, which is a big plus.
If you prefer to make fertilizers for plants yourself, then you will need a spoonful of potassium sulfate, 0.5 liters of poultry manure. All this must be diluted in 10 liters of water, and then add 0.5 liters of mullein liquid. The resulting substance must be carefully poured over the tomatoes.
When the ovaries are forming, the roots require additional feeding. This is quite easy to do, you only need dry leaves and wood ash. It is better to carry out this in cloudy weather.
Top dressing during fruiting
Top dressing during the fruiting period is also no less important than everyone else. Superphosphate is used (2 tbsp. l.), which is added to 10 liters of water. After stirring, more liquid potassium humate is added. This should carefully process the roots.
These small tips and recipes will help gardeners get not only a large, but delicious harvest of tomatoes.
