Description and characteristics of the variety
Cherry verige tomato is a compact determinant. Is undersized. The bushes do not exceed 50-60 cm in height. What are the characteristic features of the plant:
- thickened strong shoots;
- there are 8-12 tomatoes in clusters;
- the pulp is juicy, tender;
- the skin does not crack;
- few seeds;
- sugars 5%;
- ripening is simultaneous;
- the fruits do not fall off;
- the crop is harvested with tassels.
Tomatoes weigh 25-30 g. The taste is dominated by a gentle, pleasant sweetness.
Early ripening - after 88-90 days.
Plantings are carried out in open beds in southern latitudes. In all other regions they are planted in greenhouse conditions.
Description of fruits
Tomatoes have positive characteristics - they are small, the weight of one tomato reaches 20–25 grams. The red color and regular round shape of tomatoes allow the fruit to be used universally. When cut, it has two replaceable bags with small seeds. The taste is sweet; garden-grown fruits have a slight sour taste, which only improves the taste of the fruit. When ripe, there is no green spot near the stalk.
Since the fruits are resistant to cracking and have excellent commercial quality, this variety is used for the production of vegetable products on an industrial scale.

What to do after sprouts appear?
Tomato Werner f1, like other varieties, should be watered abundantly only after the first leaves appear.
And the already strong sprouts can be planted in the soil closer to mid-June. During planting, it is better to do pruning, that is, slightly trim the roots of the plant to improve their growth.
A distance of half a meter should be left between seedlings so that the root systems of neighboring bushes do not interfere with each other.
The sprouts should be carefully looked after for a week after planting so that they become stronger. Apart from the time after planting in open ground, the shoots are not afraid of the sun, cold and wind. Dutch producers made sure that with minimal care this variety produces a rich harvest. And as experience has proven, Werner tomatoes are successfully grown in the far north of Russia.
So, let's repeat the action plan:
- plant seeds in a pot;
- when sprouts appear, we take the pots out onto the balcony;
- We begin abundant watering after the leaves appear;
- we plant the strengthened sprouts in the soil;
- we take care for a week after planting;
- We are waiting for the result.
Features of planting and care
Tomatoes are grown using purchased seeds. They do not need preliminary disinfection; they are treated with an antifungal agent and a growth stimulator before packaging. The Torquay F1 hybrid is cultivated in seedlings. For planting over large areas, seeds are sown in a greenhouse in March. Maintain temperature +22-25 0C. After the appearance of two true leaves, the seedlings dive and are planted in the fields when 5 leaves are formed.
For home growing:
- Sow seeds in containers filled with fertile mixture.
- After laying the material, the surface is moistened.
- The container is covered with glass or film.
- After the tomato germinates, the containers are opened.
Plants are transplanted into the garden bed in the spring, when the temperature has stabilized at +150C.
The greenhouse can be placed in early May. If the structure is heated, then in April. The planting area is dug up, compost, peat and a complex of mineral fertilizers are added. Place the seedlings at intervals of 45-50 cm. After planting, water generously.
Growing hybrid Torquay F1:
When the tomato enters the budding phase, it is hilled and mulched. If there is no rainfall for a long time (in an open area), water twice a week.
The soil moisture is maintained in the greenhouse to prevent the root ball from drying out. Remove weeds and loosen when a crust forms on the soil. Stepping for a standard type is not relevant. Particular attention is paid to feeding. It is carried out in the spring before flowering with nitrogen agents
At the time of fruit set, phosphate is added, when the tomatoes begin to ripen, they are fertilized with potassium. 15 days before harvesting tomatoes, stop all fertilizing and only organic matter can be used.
Important! On a personal plot, it is recommended to tie up the tomato so that the fruits of the first cluster do not lie on the ground
II. Indeterminate varieties (unlimited growth)
These are tomatoes that will grow until they turn blue until the owner or the onset of the cold season stops them. They have great yield potential, which is more successfully realized in high greenhouses. We place approximately three bushes on 1 square. With supports such as strong trellises, open ground is not prohibited, which will be especially welcome in the southern regions.
Tomato Scarlet candles
Good for pickling, sweet. This is a patented mid-early variety (Siberian breeders distinguished themselves!). In the state register since 2007. They are characterized by a high ability to form ovaries in any conditions. From 1 sq.m you can actually get a bucket and a half. The clusters are arranged in tiers, the weight of the fruit on the lower branches reaches 120 g, on the top ones - half as much.
Very lightweight. A mid-early Siberian variety for canning whole vegetables. The fruits are elongated, reaching (maximum in our conditions) 13-14 cm in length, weighing about 120 g, and have a beautiful crimson hue. They have few seeds, are very fleshy, strong, and easy to keep. If they are picked green, they do not spoil and ripen perfectly.
The longest
A new product of Siberian selection. It begins to ripen already on the 110th (you can add a couple more) days from the sprouts appearing on the surface of the soil. Fruits have a unique length - 20 cm (specific size)! They are very elongated, with a small pear-shaped constriction in the upper part, uniformly slightly expanding downwards, with a spout. Vegetable clusters bear up to seven red fruits weighing up to 180-190 g. The product is successful in transportation, long-term storage, and pickling. Collection - at least a bucket from three plants.
High yield
The variety is productive and unpretentious. Tolerates slight shading. It ties well. Neither high nor low temperatures are scary. It succeeds in protected soil, but outdoor cultivation is not prohibited. Tomatoes begin to ripen in 106-113 days; at the same time, the plant successfully continues to grow and form clusters - up to 10 pieces per bush.
Each bears up to eight graceful fruits - cylindrical and pointed, in full ripeness - iridescent pink in color. The weight of each vegetable is 100-120 g. They contain a high percentage of sugars and dry matter. They do not burst when pickled, are good for drying, obtaining thick juice and, oddly enough in your opinion, for making tomato jam. With diligent care, the bush can bear up to a bucket of quality fruit.
Tomato Niagara
Weighty brushes
This mid-early vegetable variety has been on the state register since 2010. The bush is tall, but compact in width. It has a highly branched root system, responsive to increased nutrition and good water supply. A valuable feature of this Siberian variety is its multiple clusters, each of which bears up to 14 fruits weighing 85-115 g.
Meaty and sweet
This is one of the sweetest and meatiest products of Siberian breeders. It has been registered in the state register since 2007. The tomato is mid-season (116-118 days from the appearance of sprouts), with large foliage. The fruits resemble long, sharp peppers - they grow up to 15 cm. They are an elegant red color, the weight ranges from 120-185 g. The pulp of vegetables contains very little water and seeds. In the best case, there are up to a dozen fruits in one cluster. One bush gives 2-3 kg.
Tomato Koenigsberg
Excellent ovary
Included in the state register in 2005. The variety rightfully takes its place among the most productive Siberian varieties (up to 20 kg per square meter of land in a greenhouse). It sets perfectly even in the hot atmosphere of closed ground. Plants with a powerful bush with large leaves require increased nutrition and careful pinching.
The first ovary is formed after the growth of the 12th leaf, then inflorescences are formed every 3 leaves. Refers to varieties of medium ripening; in Siberian conditions, approximately half of the crop ripens; the rest of the fruits turn red quite well when ripened. Tomatoes in the lower clusters of vegetables weigh 300 g, and in those above - no less than 150 g. The shape is elongated, heart-shaped, smooth, and beautiful.
Vitamin and sweet
Ripe tomatoes have a golden-orange color and contain a record amount of carotene vitamins. The pulp is sweet and aromatic, like berries and fruits. The ripening period is average. The lower fruits are capable of filling up to a mass of 400-450 g, higher up the bush - 200-300 g. They are oval, often with a spout. The plants grow clusters through the leaves, each containing on average, as stated, up to 5 fruits. Productivity is high. The keeping quality is excellent. It is especially tasty when salted with gelatin.
Harvest hearts
Close internodes and a powerful trunk with dense foliage are like standard varieties, only the height is two meters. The Siberian breeding novelty produces half a bucket of fruit from one such “tree”. Ripening begins on the 115th day. Forms up to 6 beautiful clusters with 5-7 red tomatoes weighing 200-250 grams, shaped like strawberries.
Tomato Budenovka
Resistant to cracking
The variety is an improved version of Ox Heart, with a higher yield (about 9.4 kg per square), early ripening, good resistance to diseases (even to late blight) and cracking of the apical tissue of the fruit for a fleshy variety. Heart-shaped, ribbed tomatoes with excellent taste.
Record weight
The variety is a new product from a team of breeding scientists under the leadership of V.F. Gavrisha. Registered in the state register in 2015. Due to the unrealistically large fruits of vegetables, it is included in the “Russian Hero” series. The variety is not very fast in terms of ripening time (from 120 days), therefore it requires early planting of seedlings, especially careful pinching and decent feeding.
In Siberia and Central Russia it works well only in closed ground conditions, including a greenhouse. The average return from a bush is 3.6 (plus or minus) kg, the record is 7 kg. The tomatoes are flat-round, slightly ribbed, have an excellent smell and are very juicy, each weighing 400-600 g, not uncommon - 800 g. There are 2-3 tomatoes in one cluster of plants; if you leave only one tomato in it, it can pull more than 1 kg. Such “bogatyrs” are better suited for salads and distillation for juice.
Bowl of salad from one fruit
One of the best salad novelties, the yield is high. The plant bears 5-6 racemes. The fruits look very attractive due to their raspberry-pink color, large up to 500-800 g. The tomatoes are flat-round, ribbed, sweet. There is high resistance to cracking; The pulp density is average. A rare quality for large-fruited varieties: the fruits do not tend to quickly soften and spoil during storage.
According to the ripening period, the variety is classified as mid-early and mid-ripe. Perfect for preparing preparations: tomato paste, juice. This tomato variety is characterized by high yield. You can remove up to 5-6 kilograms of tomatoes from one bush.
Giant orange sweet
It has plasticity, rare for a large-fruited variety, and relative unpretentiousness. Delicate sweet pulp combines with excellent keeping quality. The tomatoes are round-flat (their “ribs” stand out a little), sunny orange in color. The average weight of a tomato is 0.5 kg, but in reality there are 1 kg of fruit on the bush.
I. Hybrids
Hybrid tomatoes are virtually guaranteed to be resistant to diseases and bad weather conditions, which is something that non-hybrid varieties suffer from. Greenhouses and greenhouses are valued for storing heat, but in them tomatoes can suffer from too high temperatures and sudden temperature changes. In recent years, world selection has been aimed at producing “heat-resistant” hybrids with a reliable guarantee of ovary production.
Hybrids are especially helpful in a greenhouse or a small garden plot where there are no real opportunities for crop rotation and diseases are prevalent. Selection successes demonstrate confident resistance to various types of infections - viral (especially the most dangerous tobacco mosaic virus), fungal, bacterial. In addition, the hybrids have uniform fruits and consistently high yields.
Tomato Incas F1
One of the best hybrids for canning whole fruits without skin. Popular early high-yielding bush hybrid. The plant is medium-sized, compact.
Tomato from the Dutch company Numens, zoned in Russia; entered into the state register in 2000. Mid-early hybrid (105 days) of meter-high vegetables, determinate. Very high resistance to fungal diseases has been recorded. The fruits are 80-100 g, dense, bright red, pepper-shaped, fleshy, uniform, tolerate sunburn well, are very easy to ripen, transported over long distances without loss of quality.
Tomato Torquay F1
Dutch hybrid from Bejo Zaden; in the Russian register since 2007. Mid-season tomato (119-123 days from germination to ripening), bush type - determinate, maximum height 100 cm. Forms abundant multiple clusters with fruits weighing 60-140 g. Dense tomatoes withstand long-term transportation, excellent in pickling and pickling matters.
Tomato Mariana F1
The tomato was created in the French branch of the Japanese company Sakata (the image of the woman Mariana is a symbol of the French Republic). The breeders of this agricultural company are often suspected of producing GMOs, but so far without real evidence. Mariana is a mid-early determinate hybrid. The fruits are similar in shape to Incas - also elongated-oval, perfectly smooth, super dense.
Tomato Bagheera F1
Hybrid from the leading French seed company Cloz. Included in the Russian seed register in 2007.
Early high-yielding hybrids are a real boon for the garden. They are cold-resistant, do not need pinching or tying up, and practically do not get sick. The ripening period is marked as medium-early; determinate bush. The fruit is round, flattened on top, ribbed, weight ranges from 80-220 g. The hybrid is resistant to soil drought and nematode, more suitable for regions located in the south. Does not suffer from fusarium and verticillium wilt.
Tomato F1 Semko 2005
The tomato is suitable for open ground and under film shelters (greenhouses). Determinate, medium-sized, compact. Resistant to soil salinity, drought, high temperatures, grows well in open ground in both southern and northern regions. Vegetables practically do not suffer from viral and fungal diseases, even late blight.
Tomato F1 Semko 2010
Included in the state register in 2010. Ultra-early ripening determinate hybrid - 85-88 days pass from the sprouting of green vegetables to the coloring of fruits. The first brush is formed immediately after the sixth leaf grows. The fruits are incredibly dense for such an early tomato, and are by no means small - 130 g. The shape is round hearts with a beautiful pointed tip.
The newest indeterminate hybrid (on the register since 2015) - tested by us, everything is fine - created taking into account all possible greenhouse disasters. Firstly, it sets well even in the heat, as well as during temperature changes. Secondly, it is tolerant of problematic soil substrates. Thirdly, it shows high resistance to viral, fungal and bacterial infections.
The yield of vegetables varies between 20-30 kg/1 square meter. Mid-early hybrid (100 days from green shoots). The clusters begin to form after 7-9 leaves, each bears 5-6 tomatoes in the shape of rounded hearts, smooth, beautiful, attractive orange color. The weight of the “heart” is 160-190 g. The pulp contains a high percentage of dry matter, sugars, and carotenoids. The fruits are quite dense and do not wrinkle during transportation. Purpose: salad. Created as an orange variant of another hybrid - Tomato Pink Spama.
Bushes of unlimited growth, with dense foliage. Mandatory shaping is required, including a garter. Hybrid of medium early or medium ripening period (112-118 days). Clusters of 6-8 tomatoes weighing 130-150 g. The fruits are plum-shaped, slightly tapering downwards. They are deep red in color, thick-skinned, with a high percentage of dry matter.
Tomato Empire F1
Indeterminate hybrid of a new generation, in the state register since 2011. Medium-early (100 days - 2 days - from germination). The plant is tall, much taller than other types of tomatoes. Therefore, the tomato requires gartering and pinching. Tomatoes are oval-shaped with a spout, weight ranges from 80 to 140 g. On average, 9 kg are obtained per bush. The color of the fruit is red-orange. The skin and pulp are dense. Can be stored for 6-7 weeks. In greenhouses people do not suffer from viral and fungal infections.
On the register since 2015. The bushes are semi-determinate, beautiful, a meter and a half high. Suitable for any soil - open or closed. Plants require pinching. Multiple clusters bear up to 30 fruits with a sweet taste and a perfect “strawberry” shape. The weight is typical for classic cherry tomatoes - 25 g. Thanks to the strong skin, the fruits can be stored for a long time. Early hybrid: ripe fruits appear 91-93 days after the sprouts emerge. The plant is resistant to Fusarium wilt.
Tomato F1 Kaspar
The bush is short, usually up to the first cluster, 60 cm. The fruits of the plants are cylindrical with a spout, the length varies around 11 cm, and the weight is 95-115 g. They are very dense, without juice. It is convenient to pickle them assorted with cucumbers of a similar size.
The average ripening period is 115 days. The hybrid is intended for open ground, or is planted under low shelters; We plant three to four vegetable bushes per square.
Tomato Aunt Valya F1
Valya f1 tomatoes are early-ripening, tall hybrids with average yield. The bushes easily and quickly reach a height of 200 cm. In the register since 2015. Productivity is within 20 kg per square meter. On average, one bush produces 7 kg of tasty and beautiful tomatoes. Tomatoes ripen simultaneously, reaching 200-250 g in weight.
The fruits have a regular round, slightly oblong shape. The scope of use of tomatoes is very wide. Salads are prepared from the first fruits. As the volume of the harvest increases, the fruits are used for winter harvesting, as well as juices, ketchups, pastes, sauces and lecho. Tomatoes retain commercial quality for a long time and tolerate transportation and long-term storage well.
Agricultural technology of Roma tomatoes
Tomato Children's joy
Tomatoes are very light-loving; it is imperative to provide the seedlings with additional artificial light; in open ground, choose a sunny place for planting, without tall trees and bushes, to avoid shading.
Tomatoes are grown in seedlings and without seedlings, the first is preferable, since the second method does not give the desired result.
Seedling method
Seeds are sown for seedlings in late March - early April. They are placed no deeper than 2 cm in the prepared soil, moistened, covered with film and put in a warm, bright place until the sprouts appear. Seed selection (saline solution), disinfection (a solution of potassium permanganate is used for this) and hardening are carried out in advance. To harden, the seeds are wrapped in damp gauze and placed in the refrigerator for 2-3 days (+2°C).
Picking seedlings is carried out in the phase of 1-2 true leaves.
You should carefully monitor humidity and lighting. Tomatoes cannot tolerate excess water.
7-10 days before transplanting seedlings into open ground, seedlings must be hardened off. For this purpose, an artificial decrease in temperature to 8-10 degrees is created in the room, or the seedlings are taken outside for several hours.
Attention! You can easily place up to 8 plants on one square meter; they will not interfere with each other at all, due to their compactness. Romana tomato can be planted in any type of soil, excluding heavy clay soils
It responds well to fertilized sandy and loamy soil. Excellent predecessors are: carrots, cabbage, cucumbers, beans, peas. It tolerates the soil well after last year's planting of corn, garlic and beets. It is not recommended to plant after potatoes, peppers, eggplants
The Romana tomato can be planted in any type of soil, with the exception of heavy clay soils. It responds well to fertilized sandy and loamy soil. Excellent predecessors are: carrots, cabbage, cucumbers, beans, peas. It tolerates the soil well after last year's planting of corn, garlic and beets. It is not recommended to plant after potatoes, peppers, and eggplants.
Seedlings are planted in open ground no earlier than the second ten days of May, when the threat of frost has passed. At first, the tomatoes still need to be covered with film. They plant according to the scheme: 40 cm - distance in the row, and 50 cm - in the row spacing.
Attention! Adult seedlings should be at least 20-25 cm and have 8-10 leaves. Bushes are formed into 1-2 stems
Grown plants are tied to vertical trellises. Throughout the growing season, tomatoes produce many side shoots; they need to be pinched
Bushes are formed into 1-2 stems. Grown plants are tied to vertical trellises. Throughout the growing season, tomatoes produce many side shoots; they need to be pinched.
Feeding:
- During intensive growth of green mass, the plant is fed with nitrogen-containing fertilizers;
- During fruit formation - complex.
The Roma tomato does not require special care; agricultural technology consists of:
- Ö Timely and proper watering (warm, settled water, do not water in hot weather, pour only at the root);
- Ö Clearing the area of weeds;
- Ö Regular loosening;
- Ö Stepping;
- Ö Garter if necessary.
Diseases and prevention
A little about Roman VF. Marking VF or VF indicates that this hybrid contains genes responsible for tomato resistance to verticillium wilt (V) and fusarium wilt (F). In Latin it means Verticillium Wilt and Fusarium ox.
Therefore, the Roman F1 tomato is more vulnerable in this regard; it requires preventive measures:
- Water the bushes only at the roots;
- Disinfection of seeds before planting;
- Mandatory elimination of lower shoots, which can cause a lack of oxygen for the plant;
- Timely elimination of affected fruits;
- Regular ventilation of greenhouses.
When tomatoes are infected, bushes are treated with Ordan, a solution of copper sulfate and Bordeaux mixture.
Important! After treatment with fungicides, tomatoes should not be eaten for 2-3 weeks. Plants are susceptible to late blight and fungal diseases
An excellent method of preventing them is to spray the bushes (necessarily the entire stem, leaves on both sides and ovaries) with a solution of boric acid

Tall tomatoes for open ground
Types of tomato bushes
Tomato Laura
Laura can reach a height of 180 cm and requires garter to pegs. Ripens in the middle period, forms scarlet, heart-shaped fruits with weak ribs.
There can be from 2 to 3 nests, the maximum fruit weight on good soil reaches 135 g.
The yield from 1 m² can be harvested up to 7 kg of tasty fruits.
Tomato Wild Rose
The Wild Rose tomato variety is heat-loving and copes well with drought, heat, and cold snaps. Suitable for growing in open ground or greenhouses. A tall plant up to 2m in height requires a garter, which will protect the bushes from fractures and prevent the fruits from sinking to the ground.
We suggest you familiarize yourself with Which clay is suitable for combination skin
The smooth, round fruits have an excellent taste and are best used fresh. Ripe fruits are pink in color with 4 nests and weigh more than 350 g.
Tomato Supermodel
Supermodel is a graceful, graceful variety with a maximum height of 70 cm, so can be used with or without supports. The Supermodel variety is a mid-early variety; the harvest ripens 3–4 months after sowing. Grows in open ground and in greenhouses. It is recommended to remove stepsons before the first clusters of fruit. Such measures increase productivity.
The variety is perfect for salads and pickling; it ripens early and produces medium-density, cylindrical fruits with a smooth surface. Ripe fruits of typical pink color, weighing up to 120 g, 2-3 nests. The taste of tomatoes is excellent, and the yield reaches 8 kg/m2.
Pest and disease control methods
For the Torquay F1 hybrid, prevention is necessary:
- observe crop rotation, do not plant tomatoes in one area for more than 3 years;
- do not place the bed near nightshade crops, especially next to potatoes, since the Colorado potato beetle will be the main problem for tomatoes;
- treat the bushes with copper sulfate before flowering;
- During the formation of ovaries, Bordeaux mixture is used.
If the tomatoes show signs of late blight infection, the problem areas are cut off and the tomato is sprayed with Fitosporin. “Barrier” is effective against tobacco mosaic. For the Colorado potato beetle, “Prestige” is used; in the fight against spider mites, “Karbofos” is used.
Features of cultivation and care
For the Verochka tomato variety, it is necessary to apply a special processing technology.
Sowing seedlings
The timing of sowing seeds for seedlings will depend on how the tomatoes will be grown:
- For further transplantation into open soil, the seed is sown in the 3rd decade of March.
- And for growing in a greenhouse, the date of sowing seedlings is postponed to the beginning of this month.
To prepare the seedling soil mixture, a mixture of peat and soil is suitable, which are mixed in equal parts.
It is better to sow seedlings in separate containers. Peat or plastic pots with a diameter of up to 8 cm are suitable for this. Two small depressions of 1.5 cm are made on the surface of the soil. One tomato seed is placed in each and sprinkled with soil.
The containers should then be covered with clear glass or polyethylene. The shelter should be left for a week until sprouts appear on the surface of the soil. The containers are transferred to a warm place with a temperature of about 25 degrees. After the sprouts appear, they are transferred to a cool, well-lit place where the temperature will not drop below +18 degrees.
When grown in a common container, when the seedlings have formed 2-3 true leaves, the seedlings can be planted to the depth of the first cotyledon leaves into separate containers.
The duration of the seedlings' exposure to the sun should not be less than 10 hours. If there is not enough natural light for the plants, then you need to arrange additional lighting with phytolamps.
Plant care
fruit size
Tomato plantings require constant watering. Irrigation should be done every week in the evening. To do this, use settled and warm water. Rainwater is perfect for this.
It is necessary to water strictly in the bush sector, without irrigating the bush itself, because this can provoke the development of fungal diseases and burns.
After completing each watering, the soil should be carefully loosened. Thanks to this, you can increase the saturation of the bushes with moisture and oxygen, and this will also get rid of weeds. The soil around the plants can be mulched. In this case, the intensity of watering should be reduced to once every week and a half.
Plant fertilizers are applied twice a month. Complex fertilizers and folk remedies are suitable for this.
In a greenhouse, the plant should be formed into 3 shoots, and in open soil, good results can be obtained by growing it into 4 shoots.
Growing seedlings
Seeds are planted for seedlings in the second half of March. First you need to prepare the seeds for planting. To do this, perform the following steps:
- The planting material is soaked in a weak solution of manganese for 30 minutes, after which the seeds are laid out on a clean sheet of paper and left on the windowsill until completely dry. Manganese allows the seeds to be further protected from fungi and some diseases.
- A growth stimulator solution will speed up the germination process of tomatoes. The seeds are soaked in it for half an hour. Then dry naturally.
Sowing of seeds is carried out in a special container with soil. The soil can be purchased ready-made in the store or you can prepare it yourself. To do this, mix turf soil, peat and sand in equal parts. The soil is well moistened and fluffed up. The seeds are buried 1-1.5 cm into the soil and covered with earth on top.
Watering should be done as needed; it is important to avoid stagnation of moisture and dampness in the container. The greenhouse is covered with film on top and placed in a warm and well-lit place. The film must be removed from the box every day. This is necessary so that the soil is ventilated and excess moisture evaporates.
As soon as the first 2 leaves appear on the sprouts, begin picking. You can plant seedlings in larger containers or use plastic or peat cups for this.
