What secrets of buying tomato seedlings you definitely need to know: useful not only for beginners
Every summer resident has a choice – to grow seedlings themselves or to buy ready-made ones.
An expert of the online publication BelNovosti, agronomist, landscape designer Anastasia Kovrizhnykh shared little tricks that are worth using if you set a goal to buy high-quality seedlings of healthy tomatoes.
According to the specialist, it is better to buy tomato seedlings that are planted in pots or cassettes.
However, if there is no choice, you can easily acquire seedlings with open roots, which simply need to be placed in a new place on the day of purchase (in extreme cases, the next day).
In addition, before making a payment, carefully inspect the goods.
Your goal is to ensure that there are no insect pests or signs of any diseases.
If possible, give preference to stocky tomatoes that have a bright and rich color.
If you get overgrown plants, you will have to plant them at an angle.
