Now I have some tomato seeds. How to plant them better? I plan to plant them in my backyard: 1. Pay attention to variety selection and sow at the right time.The varieties should be heat-resistant, early-to-mid-maturing, concentrated flowering and fruiting, and resistant to storage and transportation. The sowing period should be about 110 days before the first frost of the year, and the sowing period in northern Zhejiang should be in early July. 2. Use cooling and insect prevention methods to raise seedlings.The autumn tomato seedling period is often hot and dry, and aphids are seriously harmful. A small arch shed should be used to cover the seedlings with a shade net, and the seeds should be sown directly in the nutrient pots, covered with soil and straw. 3. Plant in time.When the seedlings are about 25 days old, they should be transplanted and cultivated in deep furrows and high ridges, with about 2,200 plants per mu. The ridges should be covered with straw to reduce the temperature. 4. Prune branches reasonably to preserve flowers and fruits.The growing season of autumn tomatoes is short, so trellising and pruning should be done in time. Pruning should be done with 2 to 3 poles to ensure that each plant has 6 to 7 bunches of fruit, and each bunch has 3 to 4 fruits. The temperature is high in the early stage, so 2,4-D and anti-drop agents should be applied to promote fruit setting. 5. Apply fertilizer reasonably.A week before planting, sufficient basal fertilizer should be applied. Topdressing should be applied once when the first bunch of fruits on the plant is 2 cm in size, and once after harvesting. 6. Strengthen disease and insect control.The main diseases and pests in autumn tomato cultivation include viral diseases, early blight, bacterial wilt, aphids, etc., and prevention and control should be strengthened. |
