How and when to sow to the open ground?
Tomato sow seeds in big and wide holes at the end of April beginning of May. Diameter of holes can be 40 cm and more. Holes have rows. Distance between ranks - 60-70 cm. Before landing water holes with warm water with potassium permanganate. Further place 3-4 seeds on depth of three centimeters in hole. After that slam the soil palm that the contact of seed with the earth was better. Do not water hole before emergence of shoots. Often owing to watering on the earth the crust which it is difficult for shoots to break through is formed. Be ready that the first two weeks shoots grow very slowly. As soon as plants have several leaflets, thin out them. Leave those tomatoes between which distance of 5-10 cm. Also give preference to strong individuals. Carry out the second thinning when plants have 4-5 leaflets. Now the distance between tomatoes has to be more. For the best growth of bushes water them with such medicines as Kornevina or Geteroauksina solution. Good results are yielded by processing by the medicine "Epin-Ekstra".

Fertilizing by mullein and chicken dung, but is also good a bit later when tomatoes grow up. At the beginning of forming of fruits carry out fertilizing by phosphorus and potassium. Such calculation: superphosphate of 20 grams and chloride potassium of 10 grams on one square meter. Always put fertilizers to the damp soil. To hasten maturing of fruits, pinch off tops of the fructifying escapes.
