Algorithm of actions
- Strong seeds are selected for planting. Soothers, trifles and damaged seeds are sifted out. The seeds that have passed the "casting" are soaked in a weak solution of manganese for 10-15 minutes, after which they are washed with running water.
- The prepared soil is moistened and laid out in seedling containers.
- The seeds are laid out in the soil, keeping a "distance" of about 1 centimeter.
Cover with foil and send to a darkened place before germination. - As soon as several leaves appear at the seedlings, it is recommended to dive the plants in separate containers to form strong roots. The ideal place for growing tomatoes is the windowsill.
- From mid-May, a few weeks before planting in the ground, tomatoes need to be "hardened".
- As soon as the weather improves and the frost ends, you can send Sanka to his permanent "place of residence" - in the open ground or in a greenhouse. It should be borne in mind that the bushes will turn out, although not high, but wide. Therefore, you need to plant the plants so that there is about 40 centimeters between them.
