A more time consuming but reliable option is to prepare the soil mixture yourself. To do this, you need turf, river sand and humus, in a ratio of 1: 1: 1. The soil is also disinfected in the oven or treated with a strong solution of potassium permanganate.

The seedling containers are filled with damp earth and the grains are placed in the grooves of 2 cm, with an interval of 2-3 cm. Sprinkle on top with a layer of soil 1 cm, cover the containers with foil and take them to a warm place. Air temperature for fast sprouting is not lower than 25 ° С.

As soon as the sprouts hatch, the film is removed, the boxes with the seedlings are taken out on the windowsill on the south side. Young seedlings need sufficient sunlight. The duration of daylight hours must be at least 16 hours. Phytolamps are used as an additional light source.

This wonderful tomato gives a high yield under any conditions, it is not afraid of either cold or heat. We collect more than 40 kg of selected tomatoes from 1 m².Taking care of the plant is quite simple. It is important to remember that hybrids love water and abundant mineral nutrition. "

Vladimir, Chekhov: “I plant Eupator tomatoes in a greenhouse all year round. In winter, the yield decreases slightly, and in summer we do not have time to harvest. The hybrid is super productive, rarely gets sick with proper care. The fruits have a sweet and sour taste, all smooth, as if on selection. "

The seeds are laid out to a depth of 1.5 cm. The distance between them should be 2 cm. Small and weak plants, when shoots appear, will need to be cut off, since there is no need to expect a high yield from them. On the 10th day after germination, the first feeding is carried out. A complex fertilizer is used. It is better if there is a minimum concentration of nitrogen in it. The pick is carried out in the phase of the first 3 true leaves. Plants are transplanted into larger pots, preferably together with a lump of earth.
