Tomato care
As for caring for the “Woodle Orange” variety, you should remember that, although not significant, it is definitely needed. Fertilizer should be added 4 times throughout the entire season.
- Fertilizing is carried out at the time of growing seedlings, as soon as the first sprouts hatch. Complementary foods should consist of organic substances. It is best to spray with a solution.
- Fertilizing at the time of planting in the ground, you need to add half a spoon of ash and half a spoon of eggshells to each hole.
- Fertilizing should be carried out at the moment the first flowers appear. It is best to water with organic fertilizers. One liter of solution per bush.
And the last 4 feeding no earlier than one week before harvest.
Watering
The “orange barrels” are watered as needed. Before flowering begins, water 1-2 times a week.
Immediately after flowering, monitor the condition of the soil. You shouldn’t let it dry out, but you shouldn’t overwater the tomatoes either.
As for sunlight, tomato does not need to be planted in shaded areas.
How to get a harvest?
The barrel is an unpretentious hybrid. But it is possible to achieve the desired indicators if you follow the advice of agronomists. You should follow simple recommendations:
- purchase seeds only from trusted producers;
- monitor the expiration date (after it expires, germination rate decreases);
- store the pre-purchased bag at the specified temperature and humidity;
- pre-planting preparation of hybrid seeds is not required;
- Tomato Barrel should be sown in the second ten days of March;
- disinfect trays and equipment (potassium permanganate, alcohol, vodka, soda ash solution are suitable);
- when planting in cassettes, plant 2 seeds in each;
- when placing in trays, sow in rows with a distance of 2.5 cm;
- seeds should be planted 1–1.5 cm;
- Maintain a temperature of 23–25 degrees Celsius until germination;
- monitor soil moisture;
- reduce the temperature after pipping to 18 degrees Celsius;
- dive tomatoes planted in trays into separate cups after two true leaves appear;
- fertilize the planting site in advance (add a mineral complex (nitrogen: potassium: phosphorus) according to the manufacturer’s instructions);
- planting pattern: 40×70 cm;
- place on permanent beds after returning spring frosts;
- to strengthen the plants, add double superphosphate when planting (1 tablespoon per bush);
- for the first three days, shade the plantings from the sun with white non-woven material;
- bushes require garter: the plant overloads itself with fruits;
- to speed up ripening, it is recommended to lighten and root the plants once a week;
- to preserve moisture, it is recommended to mulch the soil with rotted organic matter and dark non-woven material;
- the hybrid requires moderate watering: after complete drying.
Subtleties of growing crops
Growing the Batyanya tomato does not differ from the usual agricultural technology for tomatoes. Let's look at this in more detail.
Growing seedlings
Tomatoes are grown in seedlings. The time for sowing seeds is chosen depending on the time of planting the seedlings in the greenhouse or in the beds. Its age should be no more than 60-65 days. Overgrown plants do not take root well, and it is useless to expect a high yield from them. For the middle zone, the optimal time for sowing crops is mid-March.
Features of soil preparation
Seedling soil should consist of peat, garden soil and sand in equal proportions. You can use ready-made soil of a suitable composition for nightshade crops. Before sowing the seeds, the soil is spilled with boiling water, a solution of potassium permanganate, or calcined.
Important: it is useful to use the biological preparation “Fitosporin” - it not only disinfects the soil, but also enriches it with nutrients
Sowing seeds
If you purchase seeds in a store, you do not need to process them; they are completely prepared for planting. Seeds collected independently are soaked in Fitosporin, then dried and planted in moist soil to a depth of 1-1.5 cm. The container is covered with film and placed in a warm, dark place. Shoots appear in 5-7 days
It is important not to miss this moment and move the containers to a bright place

Transplanting
Tomato seedlings are planted in the greenhouse in mid-May, taking into account the ambient temperature. The planting pattern is 50 × 40 cm. The Batyanya variety has spreading bushes, so for successful growth and development of the plant, 2-3 seedlings are planted per 1 m2.
Features of growing in a greenhouse
Film shelters or greenhouses are the best place for growing tall varieties of tomatoes. Plants are tied up. This is easy to do - just stretch a strong wire and attach the shoots to it. As you grow, the garter is repeated several times.
A favorable microclimate is created in the greenhouse. High humidity is not allowed here; to prevent this, the room is ventilated. In hot weather, plants are sprayed with warm water, or a weak fertilizer solution can be used.
Fertilizing
If the soil on the site is not fertile, it is recommended to apply mineral and organic fertilizers.
- 7-10 days after planting, the first fertilizing is carried out. You can use different mixtures. In 10 liters of water, dilute a tablespoon of nitrophoska and half a liter of liquid manure or a tablespoon of “Ideal” factory fertilizer. Half a liter of solution is poured under the Grushovka tomato bush.
- During the flowering period, a solution is used: add 0.5 liters of chicken manure, a tablespoon of superphosphate and a teaspoon of potassium sulfate to 10 liters of water. The mixture is thoroughly stirred and a liter of solution is poured under each bush.
- When Grushovka tomatoes begin to ripen, it is necessary to use fertilizers containing boron, iodine, manganese, and potassium. These elements will ensure high yields of juicy and fleshy Grushovka tomatoes. To prepare the fertilizer, take 10 liters of water, 10 g of boric acid (powdered), 10 ml of iodine, 1.5 liters of ash (well sifted). The mixture is carefully stirred and poured under the bush, one liter at a time.
Advice! To dissolve boric acid, use only boiling water. The powder is diluted in a small amount of water and then added to the general mixture.
To accelerate the setting and ripening of tomatoes of the Grushovka variety, foliar feeding is carried out. To do this, dilute 50 g of superphosphate in 10 liters of hot water. The solution should stand for a day and then each bush is sprayed with 10 ml of the composition.
It is better to apply any types of fertilizing in dry weather in the morning or evening. The best option is to combine this procedure with watering the tomatoes. You can alternate different ways of feeding Grushovka tomatoes.
Important! In order not to make a mistake with fertilizers, you need to keep in mind: nitrogen mixtures are applied in the spring, as they ensure the growth of green mass, and phosphorus and potassium are added during the growing season and in the fall

Watering, fertilizing
Caring for seedlings consists of regular watering, two feedings (1 tablespoon of nitroammophoska per bucket of water) and prevention of late blight with fungicides. You can water it once a month with a pink solution of potassium permanganate. In hot weather, you need to ventilate the greenhouse during the day. The seedlings will be hardened and will not stretch.
- The seedlings are treated for the first time three weeks after planting, the second time twenty days after the initial treatment, and the last time after the third cluster appears on the bushes.
- You can feed the plants during the period of active growth with a solution of slurry or bird droppings. The bushes do not require shaping, removal of stepsons, or tying up. In rainy weather, plants are treated with growth regulators and stimulants.
- Watering in the first month is carried out so that the top layer of soil is constantly moist. Caring for tomatoes consists of weeding and loosening the soil around the plants.
- The more often you loosen, the larger the fruits will be. The variety responds well to fertilizing, especially liquid fertilizing. Feed 3 times with an interval of 12 days. Mullein is used as fertilizer. One tablespoon of ammonium nitrate is added to a bucket of solution, spending it per 10 square meters of land.
- The second feeding is carried out with mineral fertilizers. All feeding should be stopped when ovaries form massively. If you do not stop fertilizing the plants, there is a danger of provoking secondary leaf growth. The only benefits at this time are loosening the soil and moderate watering.
- In wet weather, plants are affected by powdery mildew, so they are treated with stimulants and growth regulators.
Bochata tomatoes are recommended to be harvested at technical ripeness. The fruits are well transported over long distances, have an excellent presentation, and are in great demand among buyers.
With the help of the simple recommendations described in the article, you can get an early and rich harvest in your greenhouse.

Tip two
The taste of the fruit is directly dependent on watering. If rare watering of the cucumber crop leads to bitterness, then in this case, improper hydration will make the tomato less sweet. Plants need to be watered abundantly, but not often, as waterlogging leads to watery fruits. As a result, the sugars in it are diluted and make it not so sweet, even if the variety is considered the best in taste. Water for irrigation should never be cold. The optimal temperature is +24 degrees. It's better if it's settled. In this case, it is advisable to add a little manure or compost to it.
What's ripening?
Sometimes the description of a large-fruited tomato variety is captivating. The manufacturer promises a combination of yield and taste. The reality is disappointing.
But the Keg is another matter. Gardeners are attracted to:
Russian gardens have created a hybrid for delicious salads. But gardeners have made adjustments: they like the possibility of universal use of berries. The juices and pastes have a beautiful apricot hue. The sugar content allows you to avoid adding seasoning when canning.

- They are preparing the ground. The planting mixture consists of three equal parts: compost, peat, and turf layer.
- The soil is poured into boxes, containers or any available container.
- Make a depression (3 cm) in the form of furrows.
- The seeds are laid out, moistened, covered with film or any transparent material to create a greenhouse effect.
Place the boxes in a room with a constant temperature. When shoots appear, the caps are removed from the container. The shoots are fed with mineral fertilizers. They dive after the appearance of 3 leaves.
Transfer
At the beginning of May, the seedlings are planted in a permanent plot in the greenhouse; they are transplanted into open ground if the ground has warmed up sufficiently. The timing is different for each region: by mid-May in the European zone, early May in the south. For 1 sq. m place no more than 5 tomatoes.

This species is not limited in its size or height, but has short internodes. This arrangement is very space efficient. For growing the variety, greenhouse conditions are recommended, although planting in open ground is also possible. The huge advantage of the hybrid is its lack of thought; the fruits ripen within 3 - 3.5 months. According to the gardeners who have now tested it, we can say that the fruits are large, about 200 grams, and have a bright pink color. Great for salads and for sale.
The fruit has a round, flattened shape. It has six nests with seeds in round numbers. Approximately 5-6 fruits ripen on each cluster of plants. On average, the weight of each tomato ranges from 270 to 300 grams, the largest weight was recorded at 550 grams.
Along their structure, the tomatoes are even and smooth; no green spots are formed near the base and no cracks were noticed in the fruit.
Experienced gardeners and vegetable growers allegedly talk about the positive aspects of the hybrid:
- The fruit ovary is formed regardless of external conditions.
- The fertility of the variety is average - up to 4 kg of harvest can be obtained from each bush.
- The versatility of growing in a variety of conditions: balcony (glass and film), in open ground.
A special feature of the Kasamori tomato is its ability to grow and bear fruit at any time of the year under the created greenhouse conditions. The production time does not last long, which makes this type stand out among other tomatoes.
Experienced gardeners give advice: plant Kasamori seedlings at different times. Alternatively, plant the seeds in open ground. If you follow these recommendations, you can only enjoy tomatoes on the table until mid-autumn. At the end of September, you can harvest the previous harvest and leave it at home to ripen. The taste of the tomato is preserved throughout its entire life.

This tomato belongs to a series of tomatoes for greenhouses, film shelters and open ground. Growing conditions in greenhouses and open ground are very different. In greenhouses there is high temperature and high humidity. As a rule, varieties and hybrids intended for open ground do not bear fruit well in a greenhouse, and greenhouse varieties do not feel comfortable in open ground. However, there are exceptions. Some early-ripening tomatoes bear fruit equally well both in the greenhouse and in the open ground.
