Your tomatoes are blooming, but the ovaries are falling off and the fruits are getting smaller?
The secret to giant brushes is hidden in three ingredients.
The first stage is spraying during flowering. Prepare an "elixir": 1 liter of whey, 10 drops of iodine and 1 tablespoon of honey per 10 liters of water.
The serum will protect against late blight, iodine will enhance metabolism, and honey will attract bees for pollination.
Treat the bushes in the evening, generously wetting the flower brushes.
The second stage is feeding during the formation of ovaries. Dissolve 100 g of fresh yeast and 2 tablespoons of sugar in 3 liters of warm water.
Let the mixture ferment for a day, then dilute 1 glass of infusion in 10 liters of water. Pour 0.5 liters per bush under the root.
Yeast stimulates root growth and increases the number of ovaries.
The third stage is foliar treatment during fruit filling.
Grind 500 g of nettle, pour 5 liters of water, add 2 tablespoons of wood ash. Infuse for 3 days, strain and spray tomatoes.
Nettle will saturate the plants with potassium, which will make the fruits fleshy and sweet.
But be careful: too much yeast will cause the bushes to become fat - the leaves will grow huge, and there will be no fruit. To avoid this, use yeast fertilizing no more than twice a season.
If tomatoes are growing in a greenhouse, ventilate it after spraying - high humidity provokes fungi.
And most importantly: never remove all the stepsons! Leave 1-2 lower shoots - additional brushes will form on them.
Pick the fruit slightly unripe - this will stimulate the growth of new ones. Store the harvest in boxes, interleaved with fern leaves - they will protect against rot.
