Tomatoes – the self-pollinated culture. But sometimes under adverse conditions of cultivation, at shortcoming of insects pollinators and the movement of wind it is necessary to carry out compulsory pollination to increase productivity.
It is required to you
- - fan;
- - electric toothbrush.
Instruction
1. At cultivation tomatoesof in the greenhouse take care of that during blossoming of tomatoes of transom have been open. It will allow to create the movement of air streams in enough, insects pollinators will be able to fly.
2. For increase in productivity use special structures which are on sale in specialized shops for gardeners and gardeners. It is enough to spray several times for the entire period of vegetation tomatoes and productivity will increase by 30-50%.
3. As compulsory pollination use potryakhivaniye method. Stir up each lash daily a little. It is necessary to do it extremely accurately and it is desirable to carry out such pollination daily about morning time. After stirring include the system of small drop dispersion. Pollen will not dry up. Excessive moistening is also undesirable. Humidity level in the greenhouse support about 75%.
4. Manual pollination by means of electric toothbrush is carried out on small sites where tomatoes no more than 100-150 units. Over each inflorescence hold electric toothbrush within several seconds. The way is rather labor-consuming if you need to be engaged in compulsory pollination of large number of tomatoes.
5. Easier way – use of the household fan. Before its inclusion make sure that air humidity corresponds to 70-75%. At lower humidity pollen will just scatter, at higher – will be balled up. The fan creates compulsory functioning of air. Sufficient air mass is guarantee of self-pollination.
