Tomato “Debut” F1: description of the variety

The bush of a determinate type plant reaches a height of 60-65, when grown in a greenhouse up to 75 centimeters. A hybrid with very early ripening and an extended fruiting period. From planting seeds for seedlings to harvesting the first ripening tomatoes, the period will be 88-92 days . Debut F1 tomatoes are recommended for cultivation both in open ground and in greenhouses.

The tomato bush is not too powerful; it shows better yield when formed into two stems. Average number of thin leaves, green in color, the usual shape for a tomato, slightly corrugated. It is not recommended to intensively feed bushes. This leads to the creation of excess green mass of stems and leaves, which delays the onset of fruiting. According to reviews from gardeners, it is recommended to tie the bush so that ripening tomatoes do not lie on the ground.

Ultra-early ripening allows gardeners to avoid fruit damage from late blight. The harvest is harvested even before fruit damage begins. The hybrid is resistant to verticillium, fusarium and Alternaria stem cancer. According to breeders, resistance to leaf spot (gray) is high. Many gardeners note resistance to temperature changes.

Transplanting seedlings

The seedlings are transplanted 50-55 days after seed germination, when at least 5-6 leaves appear on it.

Typically, seedlings are transplanted in April - the first half of May (for a greenhouse) and the last third of spring (for open ground), when the ground warms up to 10-15 ° C to a depth of about 10 cm.

The best predecessors for tomatoes are beans, beets, and carrots.

For planting Debut-F1, nutritious, loose soil with a high proportion of turf content, with good moisture absorption and breathability and neutral acidity is suitable.

The most suitable place is a sunny area. The beds are prepared in advance by adding a mixture of humus (4-5 kg), superphosphate (30 g), wood ash (200 g) per m².

Scheme:

• 8-10 days before the planned date of transplanting the seedlings, they begin to harden them, taking them to a cool place;
• holes are dug to a depth of about 15 cm, a layer of humus or other organic matter 10 cm thick is laid on the bottom;
• the optimal distance between bushes is 0.4-0.5 m, between rows - 0.5-0.7 m with an average number of up to 7 plants per 1 m².
• For 10-14 days from the moment of planting, the sprouts are covered with plastic film for protection, especially in unstable weather conditions with the risk of return frosts.

The transplanted seedlings are watered 1 liter under each bush and sprinkled with soil after the final absorption of water, the root zone is mulched.

To avoid breaking off the shoots, install support pegs to which the tomatoes are tied. It is better to tie the garter to the supports before watering, because... in the absence of moisture in plant tissues, the turgor of the stems is reduced, which reduces the risk of their breakage.

Characteristics

• Small compact bush.
• Ultra early ripening.
• The versatility of fruit use.

• Average weight 180-220, with good care up to 250 grams.
• Universal use, do not crack when pickling whole tomatoes, good taste in purees, salads, lecho.
• The average yield is about 4.2-4.5 kilograms per bush, 18.5-20.0 per square meter when planting 7-8 plants on it.

After planting in the greenhouse, care consists of watering with warm water, removing weeds, and loosening the soil in the holes. 60-62 days after planting the seedlings, you will receive the first fresh tomatoes of the Debut F1 variety.

Diseases and pests

Ultra-early fruit ripening provides relative resistance to a number of diseases, incl. late blight, tobacco mosaic, fusarium, verticellosis and alternaria.

The hybrid is at risk for the spread of gray spot. For prevention purposes and when primary signs of infectious diseases are detected, tomato bushes are sprayed with fungicidal preparations.

It is recommended to spray against infections three times during the growing season.

Tomatoes are affected by the Colorado potato beetle, whitefly, aphids, and spider mites. Insecticidal treatments are used against harmful insects.

As an additional measure, folk techniques are used, treating vegetable crops with infusions based on herbs and seasonings.
