Agrotechnics "Forte Orange"

Growing a tomato of the type described begins with the proper preparation of the planting and the soil itself. Tomatoes like fertile soil, so it is preferable to add humus, peat or compost.

In the fall, potash and phosphorus trace elements are introduced, and in the spring - nitrogen. Having clay soil, the gardener introduces river sand and manure to give the earth friability.

It is interesting! If possible, when climbing siderats it is good to sow a bed of rye or mustard for better healing of the land.

When sowing seeds and preparing seedlings for planting, planting begins.

It is important to adhere to the recommended scheme when planting - do not plant plants very close to each other. The ideal way would be staggering.

Indeterminate tomatoes must be tied to a support - to a trellis, cylinders or spirals made of metal mesh, or to high stakes. Tapestries are considered the most successful.

For the garter, a new non-slip material is chosen - for convenience and to prevent the risk of diseases. The rope should be located on the trunk freely, without constriction.

It is important! Tomatoes need to be shaped with the help of pinching. Otherwise, the risk of increasing green mass and reducing the yield increases. With a large number of tomatoes on the bush, their ripening is difficult, and their full harvest by autumn.

If you make the necessary formation, then tomato growth and timely ripening will not be a problem. With proper agricultural practices, gardeners will enjoy growing the attractive Forte Orange.

Opinions about the Fort Orange hybrid

This orange tomato won the hearts of many gardeners for a combination of external taste and care rules.

Ivan, 50 years old, Nizhny Novgorod region

My son ordered Forte Orange seeds for testing. I wanted to grow orange tomatoes in a greenhouse, along with other indeterminate varieties. The result lived up to expectations - the crop is good, the care is ordinary, the tomatoes did not hurt during the growth period.

 

Anna, 38 years old, Krasnodar

A wonderful variety that we have been growing with the whole family for three years. Productivity has never failed. The taste is not the most outstanding, but not bad, but what is always striking is the neat size and orange tint. In fact, the fruits were slightly smaller in size, but, most importantly, the taste was not affected. I love this tomato in salads and in general for winter harvesting.

 

Sergey and Tatyana, 45 years old, Moscow

This variety is one of the most beloved. The harvest is very large, the tomatoes are beautiful, strong, we send to all our relatives for a test. And the dishes with it are both tasty and aesthetic. They were grown both in open ground and in the greenhouse. The second option for our strip is preferable.

In conclusion, I would like to note that cocktail hybrids are a real find for professional farmers and amateur gardeners. Aesthetics, fruit strength, even more nutrients, abundant harvest. And even beginner gardeners can provide proper care.
