Using greenhouse provides a yield of tomatoes is much earlier than in the open field. In addition, this design helps extend the fruiting determinant varieties.

The landing, and forming a garter bushes in the greenhouse
In this room before transplanting necessary to pull the wire or form a wooden frame at the level of 2 m. Subsequently these elements will be garter tomatoes. To obtain an abundant harvest is better to plant in a greenhouse determinant tall varieties:
- One hundred pounds.
- Be Barao.
- A mystery of nature.
- Earth miracle.
- Konigsberg.
- Cossack.
- Mahitos etc.
Planted tomato need at least 50 cm apart. Then, to each plant should be tied twine at 2-3 leaf. The upper end of the rope is tied to the wire or wooden frame, formed previously. Garter should start 2-4 days after transplanting culture. Requires 1 x weekly wrap twine around the stem of a tomato, and not vice versa, so as not to over-tighten it with a twist. Thus, with the growth of tomato would have a reliable support.
Be sure to carry out the procedure removal of the lower leaves. Over time, you can remove 1 no more than 1-2 pieces. It will not hurt the plant and improve the airing of the bush. Thus remove undesirable leaves, located above 3 inflorescences. In the upper part of the stem must be no less than 15-20 leaves.
This approach to the formation of bush provide vertical height, which will contribute to obtaining a large yield from a small portion.
Required watering and feeding plants
Immediately after transplanting hydration should be reduced to a minimum. The first watering is performed after approximately 4 weeks after planting. Suffice it to pour under roots of 0.5 l water 1 time per week. This approach to irrigation is necessary for normal plant rooting.
Lack of moisture will lead to the fact that the root system will grow not only under the soil surface, but will go deeper. We should not fear the death of seedlings due to insufficient watering. In the context of the greenhouse is always maintained high humidity. After forming ovary fruit watering frequency should be increased to 1-2 times a week. This will facilitate loading of the fruit.
Also, keep in mind that in the hothouse environment aboveground part of tomato growing much faster than the root. This is often the reason that plant resets the ovary due to lack of power.
To avoid this, before the appearance of the fruit is important to fertilizing seedlings potash fertilizers. After the beginning of fruit formation is necessary to make phosphorus, nitrogen and potassium. plant nutrition are performed 1 time in 2 weeks.
Maintaining the necessary microclimate
In the greenhouse soil and rapidly heated air. Furthermore, accumulation of water vapor. However, these conditions can become fatal to the plant, if it is not organized by the ventilation of the room. In simple greenhouses often provided windows for this.
Once the outside air temperature reaches +22 ° C, must begin to slightly open the greenhouse for at least 2 hours a day. When intense heat is recommended lifting film from the upper side of the structure in the morning and evening. Top lifts the plants are not worth it, because it can cause burns the leaves and fruit. The procedure of ventilation should be carried out every day, to avoid overheating of the culture.
