Seedling care and watering

Regular watering and proper care of seedlings is the key to the future success of a good harvest. At the first stage, the plants should be watered once a week as the soil dries out. This method should be maintained for three weeks after the first seedlings appear in cups.

After a month, the plants need to be watered every four days. When five true leaves appear on the plants, water the seedlings every two days.

The amount of water should be sufficient to completely wet the soil in the containers. This is very important for seeds that are planted in plastic containers or plastic bags. To sift out excess water, drainage holes must be made in the containers in advance, which in turn additionally perform the function of oxygenating the root system of tomatoes.

In addition to timely moistening of the soil, plants should be kept in a humid room. The average room humidity should not exceed 60%. In rooms with low humidity, the soil dries out quickly, the leaves begin to turn yellow and wither. High air humidity adversely affects the root system of tomatoes; plants may be subject to late blight or rotting of the root system. The air humidity in the room can be reduced by ventilation, and increased by mechanical spraying of water.

Important to remember!

Timely mulching of the soil prevents the soil from rapid evaporation of moisture, cracking and overheating of the earth. The best materials for mulch are sawdust, hay and straw.

The Hidalgo tomato is the most popular tomato variety since 2022. Due to its characteristics and taste, good yield, this type of tomato was included in the State Register of the Russian Federation for universal breeding.
