An important condition for a decent harvest is the appearance of ovaries on tomatoes.
If they are not there, then the fruits simply cannot appear.
Therefore, it is worth familiarizing yourself in advance with the most common reasons why this not very pleasant situation may occur, reminds the expert of the online publication "BelNovosti", landscape designer and scientist agronomist Anastasia Kovrizhnykh .
What do they consist of?
Lack of balance in feeding
It is important to understand that for the ovaries to appear, tomatoes must be provided with all the necessary nutrients. Particular attention should be paid to the balance of phosphorus and potassium. They are "responsible" for the formation of the ovaries themselves.
But they can fall off if the tomatoes do not have enough boron and calcium.
Therefore, it is necessary to choose the right fertilizers.
Crampedness
Many crops cannot develop normally in conditions of high planting density, so the seedlings need to be thinned out and some of the tomatoes need to be replanted in another place.
Otherwise, you can forget about the appearance of ovaries.
Other factors
An important process of caring for tomatoes is pinching. Thanks to this, you can improve the development of the plant. It is worth making sure that the vegetable crop has suitable humidity levels.
It is also important that the tomatoes are well lit and do not suffer from temperature fluctuations.
