Favorable days in March for planting tomatoes and peppers for 2017

In order to get good yields from planting tomatoes and peppers, first you need to know the favorable days for sowing them. In any case, you should not rush into plantings or slow down their sowing, because then the plants may be weak and will not please their harvest.

 

Of course, many people first of all do everything according to the instructions written, for example, on a bag with seeds. It indicates the timing of planting, both seedlings and planting in open ground. Mostly favorable days in March for planting tomatoes and pepper for 2017 are considered when the moon will increase, that is, approximately from the beginning to the middle of March.

 

As you know, before you get a good harvest from a particular plant, you need to work hard. After all, each sprout will require some attention to itself, so you need to familiarize yourself in detail with the rules that plants require. To a greater extent, everything will consist in favorable planting, nutrition and watering.

 

Planting peppers

In order to check the germination of seeds of peppers, they must be soaked in salted cold water. Visually, it will be possible to observe when empty seeds remain thin, and those that germinate become rounded and plump. Also, usually empty seeds float to the surface, so they can be safely thrown out they are hollow and will not give sprouts.

 

Further, in order to make sure that the seeds are suitable for germination, they are placed in a damp cloth (you can use gauze). Germination usually takes several days. “Ponytails” appear on the seeds and they can be planted in prepared plates with the ground.

 

The growing moon allows you to give good germination of seeds, especially from March 1 to March 13, 2017 will be considered the most successful time for sowing pepper seeds. It is believed that after their germination and before landing in the ground, 60 days should pass. During this time, they are gaining everything necessary for further growth.

 

If the seedlings are kept for a longer time, then the plant can stretch up, as well as throw off the loose leaves. And then, after the peppers are planted in the ground, they will be sick for a long time and adapt. This significantly reduces yield, as well as ripening. It should be noted that a specific date for the planting of peppers simply does not exist, since on the same day of a different year, the Moon can both decrease and increase.

Sowing seeds

Sowing of seeds occurs in soil poured into specific containers. Sow seeds in the wet ground at a distance from each other in several centimeters. Sprinkle with soil on top, but not much, otherwise the seeds will germinate for a long time.

 

Prepared soil, in which seeds are sown, should consist of sod land and humus. After sprinkling seeds, the earth must be moistened well, you can cover it with a film, then a greenhouse effect will be created, which will improve the germination of seeds. As soon as the topsoil dries up, it is necessary to water the earth again.

Sowing Tomato Seeds

Today, there are a lot of additional seed treatments. This is done in order to protect the plant from diseases, as well as to increase their germination. Tomatoes or tomatoes are a fairly common crop. But it should be noted that before you start sowing the seeds of this plant, you should familiarize yourself with their agrotechnical features.

 

First of all, it is necessary to properly prepare the seeds, based on which, they are first disinfected. Then they check for germination. Then treatment and heating are carried out, and then they are germinated.

 

As you know, the larger and heavier the seeds, the stronger the culture grows, because usually these seeds are saturated with nutrients. Then they are tested for germination. To do this, dissolve a teaspoon of salt in a glass of water (salt solution is obtained), after which the seeds are lowered there, those that have surfaced are empty and nothing will grow out of them, so they are thrown out and the rest left.

 

Left seeds are disinfected. They do this so that the seedlings are more resistant to various diseases. There are several processing methods:

 

- the seeds are placed in a weak potassium permanganate solution and left for half an hour, after which they are washed;

- seeds are placed in a heated hydrogen peroxide solution and kept for half an hour.

 

Seeds are sown in prepared containers with soil, as well as peppers. You need to know that many "gardeners" use various mixtures of micronutrient fertilizers, which allow seeds to germinate faster, and plants receive all the necessary nutrients.

 

Unfavorable days in March for planting tomatoes and pepper for 2017 should be noted, the period from 18.03 to 22.03 is considered such. It is also not advisable to sow on the Full Moon or New Moon. On the remaining days, excavation will be successful.

 

In any case, when compiling your own lunar calendar, you should consider not only favorable days for planting. In addition to everything, it is necessary to pay attention to the qualitative characteristics of the seeds, as well as to prepare a certain soil. Indeed, active growth, the necessary conditions, as well as light, water and heat, are an integral part of growing good seedlings.

 

It is not uncommon to take into account the requirements for a variety of a particular culture. Such moments are required, because without them, seedlings can turn out to be frail, painful and will not give the desired crop. Not infrequently, when planting, the soil is mixed with ash or humus. The soil should be light and loose. You should also know that you can not sow seeds too deeply.

 

An important point when planting seeds are their suitable characteristics. Pay attention to the expiration date. It is also necessary to choose the right soil for seedlings, it is better to take the soil for a specific plant, because then the earth will contain the necessary elements for feeding plant sprouts.
