Growing seedlings: soil preparation
Given that the vast majority of Russian regions can not boast of a warm climate, and tomato - southern culture, giving full harvest exclusively in a comfortable environment is optimal growing tomatoes in greenhouses.And should start with planting seeds for seedlings.
potted lately growers replaced by disposable containers, which certainly reduces the risk of infection of the seedlings, the possibility of which is maintained with repeated use.But the new capacity must be disinfected before laying the ground.The most appropriate height for the seedling containers - 6-8 cm.
soil for planting can be purchased in the store for gardeners or cook yourself, equally combining humus and peat turf ground.A bucket of prepared mixture was added 1 kg of coarse river sand, wood ash 100 grams and 30 grams of superphosphate.Adding fertilizer to the soil does not need to complete, they present a full range of necessary nutrients.
Sow tomato Intuition F1 on seedlings in February and March.Specify specific terms of crops is impossible due to the vast extent of the country to the same in every region growers use their own accumulated experience, taking into account local conditions.The seedlings produced container filled ground, tamped it, because the planted seeds do not need to be in an air pocket - it will negate all the efforts they will not germinate.
Seed
If purchased seed, seedbed preparation is already past, what must be indicated on the packaging, then no additional work to spend with them is not necessary.A conventional seeds will have to etch and stimulate further quality growth.Although tomato Intuition F1 («Gavrish") is very resistant to various infections, pre-treatment he needs, as well as many other varieties and hybrids.
disinfect seeds help tool "fitosporin-M", in which they are immersed solution for 20-25 minutes.A modern biostimulants such as "Appin" or "Zircon", protect the seeds and wake them up.They activate the formation of shoots, support the immune system and neutralize the following stress conditions at the plant cold snaps, drying and other problems.All solutions should be prepared in accordance with the instructions attached to the drugs.The dwell time of seed in solution is also corrected based on information provided in the instructions.
Planting seedlings
prepared in this manner the seeds lay in the groove, recessed 1-1.5 cm, watered with warm weak solution of sodium humate and sealed.Seedling container is placed in a bright place with a temperature of air in the room is not less than 22-24? C.To create the most favorable conditions for germination of seedlings, container top cover glass or film.The microclimate that occurs in containers with seedlings, sprouts will protect and allow them to quickly become a strong seedlings.
With the right sequence of actions and quality seed germination occurs in the third to fifth day.Once this happens, remove the cover from the box.Now it is important not to fill the plant.This often make the mistake novice gardeners, and it is fraught with loss of seedlings, since excess moisture using the fungus that causes blackleg and are always located in the soil.These infections destroy even a very strong seedlings.The room temperature should be maintained at the same level that was maintained during the germination of seeds.
The next step is the cultivation of seedlings dive got stronger, characterized by simultaneous excellent germination and survival, which is famous for tomato Intuition F1.Reviews knowledgeable gardeners are unanimous this hybrid tomato grows quickly and thrives.
Dive tomato seedlings
This operation is carried out when seedlings grows three to four true leaves.This figure is enough to fledgling sprout properly formed root system.To process proceeded normally, you should put each seedling in a separate pot, because developing roots require more space.Techniques used for the transplant seedlings are easy, but to do everything carefully, without damaging the fragile roots.From containers with seedlings gently remove each plant, preferably with a clod of earth and transplanted into pots larger capacity.Their diameter does not exceed 8-10 cm and a height of 10-12 cm is considered optimal.This volume will be enough seedlings to get stronger, but not develop until planting in the greenhouse.Practice has shown that the tomato Intuition F1 (gardeners reviews confirm) tolerates dive.
in a separate container seedlings should not be more than 50-55 days, the height of well-developed seedlings by the time reaches 30-35 cm. All of her time at home you need to make sure that it is not stretched.This contributes to an optimum temperature and light conditions.It is necessary to rotate the container every day with seedlings to the window when the seedlings lack of light.For 10 days before the planned planting seedlings in the greenhouse plants must be tempered: pass it on to the balcony or open windows at night.
Cooking greenhouse
To provide further comfort growing young plants need a qualitative treatment as the soil in the greenhouse, and the core portion of the greenhouse.In different regions different terms transplanting in the greenhouse, but they usually range from the beginning to the end of May.Therefore, if the coating film greenhouses, and the spring was cold, you may have to put two layers of film or using a heavier (reinforced).Using the double coating film more effectively as theft, inevitably occurs between the layers will not only increase the temperature in the greenhouse, but also greatly enhance the operational capabilities of the inner layer.
on each side of the greenhouse should be vents for good ventilation.To avoid contamination of seedlings, it is recommended to remove the top layer of soil last year (7-10 cm).The remaining soil treated with a solution of copper sulfate in a ratio of 30 grams per bucket of water.The same must be subjected to disinfection, and all parts of the frame greenhouses, wood or metal.Compensate for the loss of soil humus is necessary.
Experienced gardeners recommend changing planting vegetables in greenhouses year.But if this is not possible, the present method of cleaning the old soil with humus replacing it is quite acceptable and would not reduce the planned harvest.Tomatoes, in particular tomato Intuition F1, the cultivation of which does not involve particular difficulties, pulled out of the ground the most useful substances, and replacement of the upper layer with the introduction of a full range of relevant trace elements - a good option for high yield.
soil treatment is carried out at least 10 days before transplanting.The soil must be loosened, remove emerging weeds and fragments of old roots.Humus is introduced in an amount of 8-10 kg per square meter, will not hurt and a glass of wood ash (in the same area).Optimum soil types for growing tomatoes in the greenhouse are air-loam or supeschaniki.
Features transplanting

- before planting the seedling should be examined carefully, remove cotyledonous first, yellowed or sick leaves;
- soil in the greenhouse should be heated in cold soil to plant tomatoes you can not, because the roots of the seedling just zagniyut and prolonged cold will strengthen the process and the plant in the best case will be a long time to take root, and at worst - will die.
soil temperature at planting seedlings should be no lower than 12-15 ° C.Warm soil can be artificially by covering the ground with plastic black film.By the way, it will play the role of mulch will prevent weed growth, is to maintain an optimal temperature mode and the water cycle, which considerably reduces worries farmers.
Tomato Intuition F1 (experienced gardeners reviews attest to this) does not like strong penetration at planting, as it suspends its growth - covered with earth, activated stem the formation of new roots at the expense of the development of the stem.There is a risk to overdo it with the introduction of nitrogen fertilizers, which cause over exuberant growth of foliage and lack of ovaries and fruits.Most novice gardeners planting holes fertilized with fresh manure, chicken manure or urea.To do this, you should not.
