The optimum temperature for seed germination is 20-22 degrees. After the first seedlings appear, the cellophane is removed, and the seedlings are moved to the sunny windowsill or under artificial lighting.

In the phase of 2-3 of these leaves, the seedlings are picked. After the pick, it is worth feeding the seedlings with a full mineral complex of fertilizers. So, seedlings will quickly tolerate stress.

Planting of plants in open ground is carried out after passing the threat of repeated frosts. In closed and temporary shelters, seedlings are planted with 7-8 real leaves.

The landing place is chosen sunny and without drafts. The soil is prepared in advance. They remove weeds, fertilize and dig.

For seedlings, 25 cm deep holes are prepared. They are located 20 cm from each other. And the rows are 15-17 cm apart. At the bottom of the hole is placed 1 large spoon of grass or wood ash. Then a tomato bush is lowered into it and sprinkled with soil.Around the bush mulch with straw, wood chips or shredded grass. This will allow seedlings to take root faster, not to overheat during the day and not to cool at night. And in the future it will serve as a pillow for the future harvest.

Watering is carried out at first daily. If mulching was carried out, then as the top soil layer is aired. After the survival of seedlings, watering is reduced to 2 times a week. During fruit setting, watering resumes, and during ripening it is again reduced to 1-2 times a week.

The variety is very responsive to fertilizer application. It is advisable to make them 4-5 times per season. The first top dressing is introduced after landing at a permanent place. The second - 20-25 days after the first. The third - at the stage of laying buds and flowering. The fourth is at the stage of fruit formation. The fifth - after collecting the first wave of the crop.
