Many summer residents are now actively engaged in issues of caring for seedlings.
However, it is important not only to grow excellent seedlings, but also to carry out the transplantation procedure as correctly as possible.
If mistakes are made during this process, the tomato harvest will be weak, reminded the expert of the online publication "BelNovosti", agronomist and landscape designer Anastasia Kovrizhnykh .
What rules should be followed?
"Filling" the hole
It is important to remember that at the time of direct transplantation, it is better to "fill" the holes for tomatoes in order to give the young plants as much nutrition as possible.
The most common method you hear about is the following.
First, we make holes. Then we put in humus and ash. We cover the fertilizers with a layer of soil. Then we should pour in a weak solution of potassium permanganate.
After this, we transplant the seedlings themselves along with the soil.
Mulch
In order for the seedlings to develop as correctly as possible and the soil to always remain moist, it is worth using mulch. An excellent option would be ordinary straw.
Watering
After you have transplanted, wait seven days and water. Then add moisture every three days. It is better to add fertilizer only 21 days after transplanting.
