Tomato Burkovsky Ranny - description and characteristics of the variety

Tomato Burkovsky early - a high-yielding determinant grade. Bushes grow to 60 cm, require the removal of stepsons and tying. Fruiting occurs on 90-95 days from the moment of emergence of seedlings. The variety is unpretentious, tolerant to late blight and viral diseases of nightshade crops.

Description

The culture is grown in seedlings. Fruits are round, juicy, saturated red color with excellent taste. Burkovsky early tomatoes are consumed mostly fresh. Tomato seedlings grow for no more than 50 days. In the middle zone of the country, seedlings are planted in late May, under temporary shelters. Seeds germinate up to 10 days. So, sowing seedlings should not be earlier than March.

Seedlings - the basis of tomato harvest

Tomatoes Burkovsky early perfectly tolerate the pick. Sow seeds immediately in separate cups, with a volume of at least 500 ml. Fill the cups with earth in 2/3 parts and plant previously soaked seeds to a depth of not more than 1 cm. Watered with water. In each cup, plant 2-3 seeds. After emergence, weak plants are harvested. Leave only one strong sprout.

Seedlings are grown on the windowsill with good lighting. The optimum temperature during the day is 18 degrees, and at night below 16. At high temperatures, the seedlings are stretched. Seedling care consists in regular, but moderate watering. To protect against waterlogging, make drainage holes in the cups. Excess moisture comes out through them.

Planting seedlings in open ground

Strong and healthy seedlings are transplanted into the open ground. Landing begins in late May or early June.

1. On the prepared bed, make holes at a distance of 50 cm. Carefully remove the seedlings from the tank and plant them in the holes without deepening.
2. Watered with warm water. A peg is driven in next, and the plants are tied with a rope. If there is a risk of frost, we cover the bed with tomatoes with a non-woven covering material. If possible, the soil is mulched with humus or peat.
3. Basically, caring for tomatoes grown from seeds and grown from seedlings is almost no different from each other. It consists primarily of loosening, which must be carried out between the rows.
4. It is especially necessary to carefully hush the bushes during flowering and the appearance of the ovary. At the moment when the leaves are closing, no work related to the soil can be done.
5. Before planting seedlings in the soil or sowing seeds, the soil must be fertilized with a small amount of nitrophoska, about ten grams per square meter.

During planting, it is ensured that the plants are immersed in the soil as deep as possible in order to form additional roots. After planting, seedlings for a couple of days must be protected from direct sunlight. Tomato Burkovsky early feels comfortable in porous and permeable soil. In the early stages of cultivation, timely watering is very important.

Proper tomato care is the key to a large crop

Be sure to at least 2 times a week, water the plants with warm water. During the season, several top dressings are carried out.

1. As a top dressing, it is better to use herbal infusion and ash. These are ecological clean fertilizers. Although you can use mineral fertilizers. But many gardeners are already refusing them.
2. To preserve moisture in the soil, it is recommended to put mulch between the bushes. As mulch, straw, sawdust or grass is great.
3. It is impossible to get a good crop of tall tomatoes without proper bush formation.

Be sure to trim the extra stepchildren. In order to obtain large fruits, about three healthy shoots and no more than 10 ovaries are left.
