The cultivation of tomatoes of this variety follows stages close to the classical ones. Namely:

  2. After 2 months, the seedlings are transferred to a permanent place of planting - in open ground. Understand when the seedlings are ready for transplantation can be on the leaves. When two full leaves appear, the sprouts are transferred to the soil in the open air.

Tomato Hospitable pink does not require any special conditions. Compliance with a minimum of standard conditions is favorable for the growth of this variety.

Planting period and harvest

Hospitable plants are planted like ordinary tomatoes. The variety belongs to mid-season, so it makes sense to plant plants in open ground in May, early June. Then the fruits of the tomato will ripen by mid-August.

According to the experience of summer residents, it is not advisable to plant this variety before. Although it seems logical that tomatoes will ripen earlier if they are planted in mid-spring, this is not so. Tomatoes lack sunlight, set for a long time and begin to bear fruit only in July. This is earlier than with a standard planting, but the period between planting and harvest becomes longer.

Attention!
During the ovary of tomatoes, the plant needs to be fed with minerals. Fertilizer is applied during the irrigation period. Mineral potash dressing is added to the soil, taking into account the active substance: 8 grams of potassium chloride per 10 liters. A solution of potassium salt is suitable: 50 grams per 10 liters of water.
