It can be difficult to get a bountiful harvest of juicy, tasty and aromatic vegetables. After all, the crop is quite capricious.
Many people are accustomed to achieving excellent fruiting of tomatoes with the help of fertilizers.
But there is another way.
All it takes is a little extra knowledge and some manual dexterity. It's all about the "golden" stepson.
It is believed that more crops can be harvested from such a strong stepchild.
It is usually located near the main one, but a little lower.
This "golden" stepson should not be torn off, but at the same time, everything that is under it must be removed. As a result, all the nutrients will go to it.
It should be noted that in some cases the stem bifurcates. It is easier to identify such a stepchild. It is not worth removing it. As a result, you can increase the harvest.
There is also an opinion among summer residents that any stepson can become so special, "golden". But this is possible only on condition that the plants receive high-quality and timely care.
