The timing of planting seedlings and planting in the ground
Persianovsky tomato seeds are planted from mid to late March; in May, the seedlings are transferred to the ground.
Growing tomato seedlings is an extremely important process, because it largely depends on whether the gardener will be able to harvest at all. All aspects must be taken into account, from seedbed preparation to planting in the ground.
Landing scheme
The popular scheme is 60 x 40 cm.
Growing and care
After planting seedlings, after each watering and rain, it is necessary to loosen the soil. It will be optimal to sprinkle the soil near bushes and in the aisles with mowed grass without seeds. Mulch protects the surface from drying out and protects the lower leaves of Persianovsky tomato from getting into the ground, in which there may be phytophthora spores or other infection.
Straw, hay, last year's foliage and even newspapers are used as mulch. Once or twice a season, namely, before and during flowering, tomato bushes should be spud. To do this, they scoop up the soil around the stem and compact it at the root by 10-20 cm. This will promote the regrowth of new roots, which means that the plant will be able to consume more nutrients from the soil. Such bushes will yield 25% less yield.
In order to prevent Persianovsky tomato stalks from falling under their own weight, they are tied to stakes, which are driven in from the north side, 10-15 cm from the plant. The height of the support should be at least 1 m. Tie the shoots with soft ropes or scraps of fabric that will not injure the skin.At the same time, the plant is not fixed, but they leave it a little mobility so that it does not break from the wind.
Tomatoes Persianovsky are stewed in order to remove secondary shoots with color. They form almost immediately after the formation of the main ovary at the base of large leaves. If you leave the stepsons on the stem, tomatoes of this variety will not gain weight either on the main inflorescences or on the secondary ones. Therefore, as soon as the extra shoots grow up to 3-5 cm, they must be pinched off or cut off with scissors.
The lower stepchildren are left on large leaves if they want to form a bush with two or three stems. In greenhouses, single-stem tall bushes are mainly formed, therefore, all stepchildren are removed along with the lower leaf.
A plant needs different micronutrients at each stage of growth. All fertilizers can be divided into two groups: mineral and organic. Folk remedies are often used: iodine, yeast, bird droppings, eggshells.
It is important to observe the rate and period of feeding. This also applies to folk remedies and organic fertilizers.
Disease and pest resistance
The Persian tomato variety does not crack, it has good immunity to a number of diseases:
cladosporiosis;
tobacco mosaic virus;
fusarium wilting.
From the end of May in the garden you can see inconspicuous moth-like brown butterflies, which mainly fly in the evening and at night. These are garden scoops, pupae of which hibernate in the ground. If this problem is ignored during the flowering period, caterpillars will become butterflies and give birth to another generation that feeds on tomatoes.
While the damage at the beginning of the growing season is insignificant, tomato pests can be scared away with folk remedies. In particular, an infusion of garlic arrows, which is kept for a week, then diluted 10 times with water. Persianovsky tomatoes are sprayed with garlic infusion again after 2 weeks.
But if the damage is significant, and the tomatoes need to be rescued immediately, it is advised to apply professional protection. These are already familiar drugs "Lux Maxi", if the number of pests is small, or "ATO Zhuk" and "Anticolorad Max". Consumption rate "Lux Maxi" - 1.5 ml of the drug for 6-10 liters of water per 2 hundred square meters. Spray as soon as you spot butterflies in the area. Repeat the treatment after 2 weeks or later if necessary.
If the caterpillars have already penetrated the fruits, it is advised to treat the Persianovsky bushes with a combination of Antigusen and Boxwood preparations, making a solution of 3-5 liters of water per 1 hundred square meters. Thus, you will additionally protect the site from Alternaria.
