Agricultural technology Rosamarina pound

Rosamarin pound is grown only in protected soil. It is under such conditions that the highest yields are recorded.

You can plant seedlings in a permanent place in early March. In protected soil, the soil will already be quite warm during this period.

Transplanting

Before planting tomatoes, prepare the soil. In autumn, the beds are dug up and cleared of plant debris. For 1 sq. m add 4 kg of humus. If the acidity of the soil is increased, it is reduced with dry lime.

The holes are dug in rows in a checkerboard pattern. For 1 sq. m no more than three plants are planted. With a denser planting, fewer fruits will be produced on the bushes.

1 tbsp is poured into the bottom of each hole. l ash. Plants are placed in them, forming roots towards the center. The holes are covered with earth, each one is watered with a liter of water.

Tomato care

Tomato Rosamarin pound should be tied up. It is more convenient to use trellises, but wooden supports will also work. The plant is attached to the support as it grows with a synthetic thread that does not rot.

When forming a bush, one or three stems are left. The fewer trunks remain, the larger the fruits will be and the sooner the harvest will ripen.

During the pinching process, leaves up to the first cluster and withered greenery are removed. The procedure is carried out once a week. No more than three leaves are removed in one session.

After each moistening of the soil, it is loosened. This prevents the formation of an earthen crust, which interferes with air exchange. During this procedure it is convenient to remove weeds.

Tomatoes are fertilized with complex mineral and organic fertilizers. They must contain phosphorus and potassium. Before applying fertilizing, moisten the soil abundantly.

Features of care

Rosamarinum pound will produce a bountiful harvest if properly cultivated. It has care features that every gardener needs to know about:

Rosamarin pound is prone to fattening. With an excess of nutrients, it forms few ovaries, and the leaves begin to curl. Tomatoes of this variety are fed only twice a season. If a tomato is not fed at all, the fruits will crack.

It is important to use moderation when using fertilizers. Be sure to help pollinate the inflorescences of Rosamarinum pound. To do this, the bushes are shaken regularly. Tomato beds are mulched

They are covered with straw, humus or hay.

Diseases and pests

Rosamarin pound has high immunity to various tomato diseases. However, it is worth following the rules of prevention:

Seeds, soil and containers are disinfected

Garden tools are also treated with copper sulfate. It is important to monitor soil moisture. The bushes are sprayed with a solution prepared from a piece of laundry soap rubbed into a bucket of water. This mixture protects tomatoes from aphids, spider mites, Colorado potato beetles and other insects.

Advantages and disadvantages

Advantages:

• unpretentiousness
• good yield
• large fruits
• the taste is excellent, the texture of the fruit is delicate
• high vitamin content
• resistance to many diseases.

No deficiencies were recorded. In cold summers, less growth is observed.

Important! The best variety with impeccable quality characteristics will not bring a good harvest without proper care!

Bush care

Recommendations for further care:

To get a good harvest, the frequency of watering should be once every 5 days, in dry weather. It is not recommended to use cold water for irrigation

In case of prolonged absence of precipitation, periodic spraying of tomato foliage is recommended; The next day after watering, carefully loosen the soil around the seedlings; Despite their massiveness and strength, the bushes must be tied up using synthetic material;

Feeding is carried out in stages. The first feeding is carried out two weeks after transplantation to a permanent place.

During the formation of ovaries, a solution of boric acid is used. Further fertilizing is carried out after 10 days, using complex fertilizers;

The tomato bed must be promptly cleared of weeds. To reduce the amount of weeding, it is recommended to mulch the soil with non-woven black fiber. Straw, grass clippings, and leaves can also serve as mulch. They will become an additional source of organic nutrition for tomato crops;

The formation of a bush is carried out in two or three stems.

By the appearance of the tomato crop, you can determine the deficiency and excess of microelements:

• With a lack of nitrogen, the leaves become pale, and an excess of nitrogen provokes excessive growth of green mass;
• With an insufficient amount of phosphorus, the leaves appear purple, while an excessive amount causes the ovaries and leaves to fall off;
• If there is a lack of potassium, the plant begins to dry out, even despite proper care and watering; the appearance of a dull tint on the leaves indicates an excess amount of potassium.

Characteristics

• The shape is round, flattened at the top and bottom.
• The color of the ripe fruit is dark pink, red.
• The size of the tomato is large, reaching more than 15 cm in diameter,
• can weigh up to 1 kg. On average, the weight of the fetus is 400-500 g.
• The pulp is fleshy.
• The number of chambers with a large number of seeds is more than 6.
• Dry substances in tomatoes are contained in medium quantities.

You can compare this indicator with other varieties in the table below:

The taste of tomatoes and a large amount of vitamins are also considered a special feature.

Excellent fresh, the taste is sweetish, with some sourness. Suitable for preparing salads and preserved slices. It goes well in the production of tomato paste and juice.

Conditions for growing tomatoes Maryina Roshcha

The variety is cultivated exclusively from purchased seeds. It will not be possible to grow a hybrid from material collected by yourself. To obtain tall, healthy bushes with a bountiful harvest, the following agricultural technology conditions are used.

Timing of sowing seeds

To plant seedlings in a greenhouse in early May, seeds are sown in March. Before the expected date of transplanting plants into closed ground, you need to count back about 65 days. The seeds do not need to be treated or treated before planting. The manufacturer usually takes care of this on his own.

Prepared soil containing a large amount of nutrients is poured into the container for seedlings. To prepare it you will need the following components:

• one part each of turf substrate, humus and peat;
• 10 g each of ash (charcoal) and potassium sulfate;
• sand or perlite approximately 500 g per 10 kg of mixture.

The composition is mixed well and steamed with boiling water to get rid of insects and viruses. The prepared mixture is placed in containers for seedlings and allowed to dry. When the mixture becomes slightly damp, begin planting. The seeds are planted one at a time to a depth of 1.5 cm. The top is sprinkled with earth, but not compacted too much.

To maintain soil moisture longer and create a microclimate suitable for germination, cover the top of the container with film.

Conditions for growing healthy seedlings

After planting, the containers are removed to a place with a temperature of at least 21° C. In such conditions, sprouts will appear in a week. Then the film is removed and they begin to water it at least once a week with warm water. Fertilizer can be applied after two weeks. To do this, use a weak solution of nitroforate.

When two leaves (real leaves, not cotyledons) appear, Maryina Grove is picked for the first time.

If the seedlings stretch out, then when transplanting they can be buried a little.

The Maryina Roshcha tomato, grown and cared for correctly from the first days, gives good results. It must be properly prepared before moving to the greenhouse. To do this, 10 days before transplanting to a permanent place, the seedlings are taken to a cooler place. At night they are brought into the usual warmth. This way the tomatoes harden gradually and are better able to tolerate transplantation.

Planting the Maryina Roshcha tomato in closed ground

Two-month-old hardened seedlings are transferred to a greenhouse. Let them get used to the conditions. Holes are made in the ground, placing no more than 4 plants per meter. The bottom leaves of the tomatoes are removed and sprayed with a weak solution of Bordeaux mixture. Deepen into the ground and press the soil tightly from above. Watering is done with water at 21 – 25° C.

Planting the Maryina Roshcha tomato is stress-free if you use a rooting agent. For example, Heteroauxin.

The first two weeks do not apply fertilizer so that the root system becomes stronger. When it becomes capable of absorbing mineral and organic fertilizers, fertilizers are applied according to the scheme.

Fertilizer application frequency

Indeterminate tomatoes respond well to the addition of nutritional compounds. The first fertilizing begins directly into the soil upon planting.

During the first days of growth of young plants, nutrients continue to be added in the greenhouse:

1. Two weeks after rooting, Maryina Grove is watered with a superphosphate solution to form the ovary. One spoon of fertilizer is diluted per bucket of water.
2. After another 14 days, the bushes are topped with a solution of nitrophorophosphorus. The solution is made standard, according to the instructions.

Before applying fertilizing, the bushes are watered abundantly. This way, the likelihood of burning the root system is lower, and nutrients are absorbed better.

The hybrid tomato Maryina Roshcha is unpretentious in care and resistant to many diseases. Among its positive characteristics: early ripening and high yield. The disadvantages of the variety are the impossibility of collecting seeds (they only need to be purchased) and planting exclusively in a greenhouse. When the requirements for agricultural technology are met, the crop produces a bountiful harvest, which is suitable for mass marketing, use in cooking and canning.

Features of cultivation

Suitable for cultivation in all regions of the Russian Federation, Ukraine and Moldova.

Sow seedlings in March. Picking is carried out when 1 good leaf is formed.

Planted in a greenhouse 40 - 45 days after sowing the seeds (usually planted on the 50th day) with a distance of about 50 cm between plants. The rows between the furrows must be at least 50 cm. Per 1 sq.m. about 3 plants. Formed into a single stem.

In order for the results of growing tomatoes to be pleasing, it is important to use the right soil for both seedlings and adult plants in greenhouses. In our articles you will read about what types of soil for tomatoes exist, how to prepare the right soil yourself, and how to prepare soil in a greenhouse for planting in the spring.

We must not forget about such agrotechnical techniques when planting tomatoes as loosening, mulching, and fertilizing.

To prevent fruit from cracking, constant moisture is needed. Despite the tender, loose flesh, the fruits are stored for a long time. Transportation is well tolerated by this variety. Tomatoes do not cause allergies. Typically, yellow fruits are considered less allergenic.

Frost-resistant varieties selected by Pavel Saraev

Pavel Yakovlevich Saraev is one of the most unique breeders of the USSR, who left a legacy of dozens of frost-resistant tomato varieties. It is no secret to many that growing tomatoes in difficult climatic conditions is a risky business. The main reason is the complete death of seedlings after an unexpected frost. Other reasons are short summer, insufficient number of sunny days, heavy rainfall, fog, cold dew. Many gardeners are tired of fighting for their harvest and stopped growing tomatoes in the northern regions, so to speak, they resigned themselves to weather surprises. But many never started, thinking that it was not possible to do this in their area. I will try to dispel such thoughts.

Diseases and pests

"Rosemary pound" is resistant to diseases and has strong immunity from many pests.

Even with manufacturers’ promises of high disease resistance, preventive treatment (spraying) with microbiological drugs is mandatory.

1. Before planting tomatoes, the walls of the greenhouse are treated with copper sulfate.
2. In the greenhouse there is increased humidity and the rapid spread of plant infections. To get rid of these shortcomings, the room is regularly ventilated.
3. Tomatoes in the greenhouse are watered only once a week.
4. To help the plants pollinate, the bushes are shaken regularly. Another option is to install a fan in the greenhouse.
