It's not always summer weather makes gardeners happy because summer is often too short for tomatoes to ripen. To rejoice in the harvest of tomatoes as soon as possible and have time to collect them, before the onset of cold nights, inhibiting growth, you should know the better to water the tomatoes so that they are poured.
Methods that help to ripen tomatoes.
There is no wonderful recipe that allows you to make the fruits blush in an instant. It will require a set of activities that will help in this matter in a short time:
- tearing off excess foliage, below the level of immature fruit;
- cessation of all kinds of food;
- It is necessary to put film shelter at night to avoid getting dew on the fruit, which leads to late blight .
Can I water the tomatoes when they blush?
If you do not water the vegetables and fruits, then the plant will be very hard to extract moisture from the soil, which means that the fruits will not be filled well. This rule does not apply to tomatoes, because they need liquid until the green tomatoes are poured. Until that time, fluid intake should be abundant, but rare - about once a week.
After the green tomatoes are ready to start blushing, watering should be stopped, as excess moisture postpones maturation and can lead to decay of bushes.
Than to pour tomatoes to see?
If you do not know what to do and how to pour tomatoes so that they blush faster, then the old proven method will come to the rescue. Only watering in this case will be only by the fruits and green mass, and not under the root as we are accustomed to.
This is very simple - in 10 liters of water, which are designed for spraying one and a half linear meters of planting, 40 drops of iodine are poured in and dissolved. This solution is processed by means of an atomizer.
In addition, if the colds are already on, green and brown fruits are torn off and folded in two rows mixed with mature ones. Red tomatoes give off ethanol, which contributes to "aging", that is, redness, being a number of fruits.
