Planting seedlings
The recommended planting density for large bushes “Mysteries of Nature” is 3-4 bushes per square meter. Hence the layout of plants in a bed of 50x50 or 60x50 cm.
A teaspoon of complete fertilizer is added to the planting hole and mixed with soil. Immediately drive in (if this is not a greenhouse) a high support stake or trellis for future garter.
In greenhouses, natural fiber ropes are usually tied to the frame of the structure. Rooting of seedlings is also carried out by deepening the trunk. With their large sizes, this can be done with an inclination.
Features of cultivation
Sowing seeds for seedlings begins 50-60 days before planting in a permanent place. When planted in the ground for 1 sq.m. You need to place no more than 3 plants. Since the variety is tall, it requires support and garter. You can use trellises.
The first brush is formed over 8-9 sheets, the next one after another 3 sheets. Each hand is tied up due to its heavy weight. To obtain high yields, plants should be pinched and no more than 4-5 flowers should be left. “The Mystery of Nature” responds well to the use of mineral fertilizers and growth stimulants.
Bush care
To prevent tomatoes from getting sick, water them at the root; water should not get on the leaves.
Do this in the afternoon, so the moisture will not evaporate in large quantities. Avoid sprinkling, as it causes the temperature to drop sharply, which is not good for the plant.
Loosen the soil after watering, so it will not become crusty and will be able to breathe. At the same time, you can destroy weeds. The first loosening should be 8–12 centimeters deep for better aeration. But then, no deeper than 4–5 centimeters, so as not to damage the roots. Do not allow soil compaction, this will have a bad effect on the root system.
Form the bush in accordance with the variety required. This will increase its yield and make the plant effective. Collect fruits on time so that the juices are used to ripen new tomatoes.
Diseases and pests
Tomato diseases can destroy the entire crop, so disease control must begin before planting seedlings. Let's look at the most common of them for greenhouse tomatoes, which include “The Mystery of Nature.”
Late blight - at the beginning of the disease, the leaves turn brown, then the fruits turn brown. The disease is caused by large temperature changes and excessive humidity. Spraying with copper-containing preparations helps to cope with the disease in the early stages.
Tomato blossom end rot . It is characterized by depressed spots on green fruits. Excess nitrogen, lack of calcium or lack of moisture are the main causes. Regular watering and treatment with saltpeter solution helps to cope with the disease.
For leaf mold, the main symptom is the appearance of brownish-brown spots that are covered with a gray coating. The use of bacterial preparations and treatment of the plant with a solution of copper oxychloride will help cope with the disease.
Tomato mosaic is a very unpleasant disease. The distinctive features of the mosaic are colored spots that appear first on the leaves and then on the fruits. Prevention is done by washing the seeds in a 1% solution of potassium permanganate. Affected plants are burned.
Another disease is fruit cracking. But its cause is not mushrooms or viruses, but abundant watering during drought. When a large amount of water immediately enters the stem, and then into the fruit itself, its delicate skin cannot withstand the pressure and cracks. It is not difficult to cope with diseases; the most important thing is to notice them in time and diagnose them correctly.
