One Clever Trick Will Save Overgrown Tomato Seedlings: The Harvest Will Be Even Better
Due to weather conditions, many summer residents are in no hurry to plant tomato seedlings in open ground, so they face another problem.
Returning cold weather and frosts postpone the transplantation of tomatoes to a permanent location until mid-May, and sometimes until the end of the last month of spring.
Therefore, summer residents often face the fact that the seedlings have begun to outgrow, but it is still too early to plant them.
Seedling trick
There is a way out in this situation. A simple solution to the problem will not leave you without a harvest of tasty and juicy tomatoes.
The tops with 3-5 leaves are cut off from the seedlings. The cuttings are placed in water, and in about 10 days they will have solid roots. After that, they are transplanted directly into the soil.
Thanks to this trick, gardeners gain about 2 weeks before planting. But the main advantage is that the root system of seedlings becomes more powerful and high-quality.
