Description of the variety
The bushes are tall and reach a height of 190 centimeters. Some plants grow up to two meters. Growth type is indeterminate. The variety is recommended to be planted either outdoors or in greenhouses. Leaves are of a standard green color, medium in size. On one brush, up to 6-8 tomatoes can ripen at the same time. During flowering, the bush is covered with a large number of bright flowers.

Note: if you are going to grow seedlings yourself, it is recommended to leave 2-3 vegetables, as one of them may be empty.
Taste characteristics
The taste of the fruit is marked as delicious. It is described as sweet, honeyed with fruity notes and a pleasant aroma.
Ripening and fruiting
The harvest ripens early, and the ripening period ranges from 110 to 115 days. Summer residents note long-term fruiting, which is influenced by adherence to agricultural technology.
Yield
About two kilograms of fruits are harvested from one square meter of the plantation. On average, up to 10 kilograms are obtained from each bush in one season.
The timing of planting seedlings and planting in the ground
Seeds are sown in early March. So the young seedlings will get strong enough by the time they are transplanted to a new place. Planting seedlings into the ground is carried out approximately 2 months (60-65 days) after sowing the seed. The exact dates should be calculated independently, taking into account the weather conditions in each specific region.
The soil on the site should warm up to at least +10 degrees. The seedlings will quickly adapt to such conditions in a new place and will feel comfortable. By the time of transplantation to the site, the growth of seedlings reaches about 10 centimeters. The container with plants must be hardened a week before work. For the first time, young bushes should be in the new temperature conditions for 20 minutes. After that, the time interval is gradually increased until it reaches 12 hours.
The soil on the beds is pre-prepared. It is dug up and fertilized with mineral dressings. If weeds grow on the site, they must be removed.
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
It is impossible to thicken the site too much. 3 bushes are grown on one square meter of territory.
Growing and care
Seedling care is carried out according to a certain scheme.
It is important to observe the correct temperature regime of 20-22 degrees Celsius. And also the plant needs daylight hours at least 14 hours a day.
Irrigate seedlings as the soil dries. The land should not be waterlogged or dry.
Complex nutrient formulations that stimulate growth are used to develop a strong root system and establish a strong stem.
In the presence of two true leaves, a pick is made.
The variety Your Majesty is unpretentious, and you can achieve an excellent harvest on any soil. And also tomatoes can easily tolerate hot weather, excess or lack of moisture. Maximum fruiting can only be achieved by creating comfortable growing conditions.
When cultivating tomatoes in greenhouse conditions, you need to regularly ventilate the room. Otherwise, excess moisture will cause plants to rot.
It is recommended to form 2-3 stems bushes. At the same time, the growth point is removed when the bush reaches a height of 1-1.2 meters. Warm water is used for irrigation. And also the shoots are tied to the supports.
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.

you need to carefully monitor the composition of the soil and its condition;
repellent plants should be planted next to the tomatoes;
in the presence of symptoms of diseases, it should be treated as soon as possible with special formulations or folk remedies.
