When to sow tomatoes for seedlings in 2020

Professional gardeners coordinate sowing with the lunar calendar and weather forecast, since from our own experience we were convinced that in this case the seedlings grow faster, and the yield indicators are also high.

Much still depends on the regions. In the southern region, planting in open ground is carried out at the end of May, by which time the soil has time to warm up to fifteen degrees.

And in cold regions, transplantation is carried out 14 days later, in mid-June.Given these indicators, cultivation from seeds is carried out in February and March.

Early ripening money bag tomato. Its germination period takes about 45 days, and 5 weeks for seedling growth.

Therefore, on February 25, you need to start sowing tomatoes for seedlings in 2020, this applies to warm areas. In the central and northern regions, seedling sowing occurs on March 10-11.

Recommendations for growing:

For planting you need to select an appropriate container. Wooden boxes or wide flowerpots of medium height are suitable for this. In both cases it is important that drainage is done.
The appropriate soil is selected. You can purchase suitable soil for growing tomatoes at a specialty store or make your own soil. In the second case, it is necessary to mix the soil from the garden in equal proportions with peat and sand. A solution of potassium permanganate is poured into the ground as a disinfectant.
The finished soil is poured into flowerpots or boxes and leveled.
One and a half centimeter grooves or holes are made for planting the seed. The seeds are covered with soil and watered. Use warm water for watering.
The container is covered with film and left in a warm room; the optimal temperature is considered to be + 25 degrees.

It is important to take deadlines seriously, only in this case the result will be maximum.

Let's watch a useful video on how to properly grow tomato seedlings:

When to plant in the ground

Planting is carried out in the ground sixty-five days after sowing the seeds. Approximately this time falls in the last days of May. Planting in a greenhouse is carried out in April.

A week before transplanting, the seedlings are hardened off by leaving them in a cold place for a short time.When the seedlings are fully strengthened and adapted, transplantation is performed. The ground outside should warm up to twelve degrees.

The procedure itself is carried out as follows:

No more than four bushes are planted per square meter. If this step is not taken into account, then dense bushes will not be able to develop quickly and will produce less yield. Space is one of the most important steps in the planting process.
Dig shallow holes with your hand or a special spatula. Water is poured into each furrow and purchased fertilizer or humus is added.
Carefully remove the sprout from the pot or box along with the lump of soil and plant it in the hole. The seedlings are compacted on top with garden soil.
Mulching is carried out using dry grass or straw. This process is necessary to protect the plant from sun, rain and wind.
Create a support. While the seedlings are small, small beads are installed and the bushes are tied to them with ropes or ribbons. As the stem grows, the support is changed to a larger one. It is important to remember that the stem is delicate and one careless movement can break or injure it, so you need to act carefully and slowly.

By following these recommendations, the bush will quickly gain a foothold in a new place and inflorescences and fruits will appear within a short time.

Care instructions

Standard care is required: watering, fluffing up the soil, introducing fertilizers, shaping the bush and tying it up. Let's look at these procedures in more detail.

Watering is carried out rarely, but immediately pour in abundantly. Watering is carried out approximately every 7 days. It is advisable to use warm and settled water, since cold water has a negative effect on growth.

The manipulation is carried out in the morning or evening so that the sun does not scorch the plant.When watering, it is important to ensure that the foliage and stem remain dry. If possible, it is better to install drip irrigation. Plants are watered more often during the formation of inflorescences and ovaries.

In greenhouses, the crop is also watered with warm water once a week. At the initial stage, when the stem develops, four liters per square meter are used, and after the formation of flowers, twelve liters per square meter are used.

Loosening the soil is carried out after watering. This procedure is necessary for oxygen saturation of the root system. This also helps get rid of larvae and insects.

Introduction of fertilizers. Manipulation is carried out up to five times per season. The first time fertilizing is carried out immediately upon planting; for this purpose, organic matter and fertilizers are used, which contain potassium and phosphorus.

Subsequently, fertilizer is introduced to stimulate growth; this fertilizer is sold in garden stores. It is worth considering one nuance - if you overdo it with manure and nitrogen, the plant will gain green mass, and the yield will suffer as a result.

Forming a bush into two or one stem. In the first case, a branch from the first flower cluster is preserved (all foliage is removed), and in the second case, all side branches are cut off.

In addition to the above procedures, ventilation is carried out in the greenhouse to maintain equal humidity and dry the soil. This will prevent mold.

Let's watch a useful video about that. how to form a tomato bush into one and two stems:

Resistance to diseases and pests

This variety has strong immunity, but prevention is necessary to prevent infection in advance.

To do this, it is important to follow the following procedures:

get rid of weeds every fourteen days;
spray the bushes with Fitosporin;
fluffing up the soil protects against the proliferation of insects on the root system;
treatment with chemicals in case of crop damage by caterpillars and insect larvae.

When working with chemicals, care must be taken to ensure that the product does not come into contact with the fruit.

Tomato money bag: reviews on forums from those who planted

Reviews are mostly positive. Let's see what summer residents write.

Dmitrieva Maria: The Money Bag variety is very juicy. We constantly make sauces, ketchup and juice from tomatoes for the winter. In greenhouses, the harvest is obtained earlier and more, but this is personally in my case. I recommend to everyone!

Vykhrest Alexander: The variety disappointed me. Planting was carried out in a greenhouse. The bushes turned out to be low, and up to seven fruits were formed on the cluster. Ripening took a long time, each fruit sang separately. The only thing that pleased me was the taste and beautiful shape of the fruit. Perhaps in an open area the Money Bag is more productive, but in greenhouses it is not.

Mironovich Andrey: We planted the variety in the garden, since we have a warm region. I am completely satisfied with the result. The tomato meets the specified characteristics. There were no problems during the entire growth. There were a lot of fruits, juicy, aromatic taste, everything that was expected.

Olga: There are only positive emotions from this variety. The tomatoes clung to the stem, the yield is huge. Preparations and dishes based on these tomatoes are a real delight. I recommend to all!
