Sowing dates

We calculate the sowing time as follows. Landmark - the approximate date of landing in the ground, you need to subtract the sum of days from it:

  • the age of seedlings ready for transplantation is 45–55 days;
  • 7 days for seed germination;
  • 5 days for adaptation after a pick.

cut tomatoes

Sow the seeds to a depth of 2 cm. Compact the earth, then the sprout, breaking through the dense layer of soil, will throw off the shutters from the seed. In order for the seedlings to be friendly, always cover the box with seeds tightly with foil.

Tomato seedlings absorb nutrients well from the soil at night temperatures of 14 ° C and daytime temperatures of 16 ° C. Under optimal conditions, tomato seedlings form good roots, more flowers are laid.

A higher temperature provokes excessive stem growth in seedlings, weakening of the roots and fewer flowers.

Do not put boxes with seedlings on cold windowsills, so that the soil does not overcool, you need to put any warming material under them. Do not moisten the soil too much, the seeds will not have enough oxygen. Use only warm water for irrigation.
