Tomato Marmalade: characteristics and description of the variety

Particular attention should be paid to seedlings. Strong and resilient, it can only be obtained from quality seeds. It is difficult to obtain seed material from hybrid varieties of tomatoes on their own, they have poor germination. And the selection variety of the Budenovsky tomato is suitable for this. It is successfully used for growing seedlings at home.

To do this, you should:

  • choose the largest and ripe tomato;
  • extract the pulp with seeds;
  • pour water, leave for a week in a warm place;
  • rinse the floating grains, spread on clean paper to dry;
  • dried seeds are stored in a tightly sealed container until planting.

Growing

Two months before the intended planting of seedlings:

  • the seeds are sorted out;
  • rejected;
  • soaked for 1 hour in a weak solution of potassium permanganate for disinfection.

Seeds are sown into the warmed-up ground, to a depth of 40 cm. Until the first shoots hatch, cover the seedlings with foil. When the first two leaves are formed, the seedling dives.

In open soil, seedlings are planted when a stem with 10 leaves is formed, and the first formed brush with flowers appears.

Important! Tomato seeds cannot be fertilized with potash fertilizers and wood ash, they slow down plant growth, inhibit seedlings. These fertilizers are only suitable for mature plants.

Transplanting

When planting varieties, they change the soil, Budenovka is planted where cabbage, carrots, zucchini or cucumbers previously grew.

Seedling

Recommendations:

  • before planting, it is necessary to fertilize the soil with humus or add 1 teaspoon of superphosphate fertilizers to each hole;
  • plant the seedlings in holes with a volume of 50 cm, 2.5 cm deep;
  • for 1 sq. no more than 3 plant bushes are planted per meter of land.

Further, all care will include regular watering, fertilization and treatment of the plant from pests.

Reference. It is not recommended to plant tomato seedlings in the soil where potatoes, eggplant, and peppers previously grew.

Watering

The drip irrigation system has proven itself well, it reduces the development of late blight and constantly maintains the necessary soil moisture.

Reinforced watering tomato Budenovka requires:

  • during flowering;
  • when forming ovaries;
  • during fruit formation.

The rest of the time, the plant is watered twice a week, with sufficient moisture, watering is reduced. When watering, do not allow moisture to get on the leaves; water is carefully poured under the root of the plant.

Watering

The retention of moisture in the soil is facilitated by mulching the beds. The lower leaves are cut off so that they do not come into contact with wet soil and do not rot.

Fertilizer

A varietal tomato can develop fully only if the soil contains all the components necessary for this. It would be nice to do a chemical analysis of the soil, but if this is not possible, then fertilize with the necessary minerals for this variety:

  • potassium;
  • phosphorus;
  • superphosphate;
  • urea;

Solutions prepared by folk methods fertilize the soil well:

  • eggshell tincture;
  • infusion of green grass with the addition of manure.

Fertilizing tomatoes includes the following steps:

  1. Fertilize the ground with humus with a small amount of ash;
  2. Three weeks after planting, they are treated with a solution of mineral fertilizers: 30 g of phosphorus, 15 g of potash, 25 g of nitrogenous diluted in 10 liters of water;
  3. During flowering. Dilute chicken manure or mullein 0.5 l in a bucket of water, add 20 g of potassium sulfate;
  4. During the formation of the ovary. Dilute wood ash 2 liters in 10 liters of water, add 10 g of boric acid;
  5. To accelerate ripening - 2 tbsp. tablespoons of superphosphate and 1 tbsp. tablespoons of sodium glutamanate per 10 liters of water.

Important! Nitrogen-containing fertilizers should not be included in the last two dressings. From this, the tomato bush "grows fat", the ovary ceases to form, and the leaves and side shoots grow vigorously.

Fertilizer

Care

To increase the yield, the bush must be properly formed. To do this, apply:

  1. Topping. To do this, cut off the top of the stem with shears, leaving 2 leaves above the last ovary;
  2. Stealing. Lateral shoots that form in the leaf axils are manually removed;
  3. Pollination. For better yields, help a self-pollinated plant with air currents and by shaking the flowering bush.

These methods will improve the flavor, weight of the tomato and significantly increase the fruiting rate.

Need to know! After pinching, at least 40 leaves and 5 brushes should remain on the branches.
