Agrotechnics

The variety is grown in a popular seedling method. Sowing seeds for seedlings is carried out 60 - 65 days before the intended transplantation into the ground. Based on this, it is advisable to independently calculate the sowing time in each region. In the southern regions, this process can begin from mid-February, in cool regions - almost a month later, in March.
Tomatoes are planted in the greenhouse at the end of April, in open ground - in May or June. The seeds are processed in the usual way, the depth of planting in the soil is 2 - 3 cm. The pick is carried out after the appearance of the second true leaf. 10 - 15 days before transplanting to a permanent place, the seedlings begin to harden. Given the tallness of the plant, a garter is indispensable.

The culture shows the best indicators when formed in 2 stems. For this, one stepson is left, located under the first flower brush, the rest are removed. In order for the entire crop to ripen, no more than 6 - 8 fruit brushes are left on the bush. The top is pinched to limit further growth. Plant care is standard.

Watering is carried out as needed. It is recommended to use water heated in the sun for moisturizing. Top dressing is carried out with complex mineral fertilizers. Tomatoes are regularly harvested. Preventive measures will protect the Red Pear from possible diseases and pests. Loosening will restore air exchange in the soil, and weeding will eliminate weeds competing for food and moisture.

The planting site for this variety should be sunny, the soil should be nutritious and loose. When growing in a greenhouse, it is advisable to protect the plant from drafts. The planting scheme is traditional - 40 cm between bushes, row spacing - 50 cm. Recommended density per 1 square meter - 3 plants formed into two stems, or 4, formed into one trunk.

This variety is appreciated for its original fruit appearance, yield, good taste and excellent possibilities for whole-fruit canning. The downside is the need for garters and shaping.

Sowing seedlings is carried out in March - April. Under temporary shelters, dived and hardened seedlings are planted in mid-May, in open ground - in June. Planting scheme - 40 cm between bushes, row spacing - 50 cm. Planting density - up to 4 plants per 1 square meter. Garter and pinning are required. The culture shows the best results when formed in 2 - 3 stems.

This is an unpretentious variety, which is valued for its stable and high yield, unusual and original shape of the fruits, their beautiful color and suitability for canning whole fruits. The downside is the inability to do without the garter and shaping.

The method of formation and agricultural technology completely coincide with the red predecessor. But once again I would like to note that the planting site and care play a big role in the yield and taste. Plants should receive the maximum amount of sunlight, then the taste of the fruit will be sweet, and not watery and insipid.

This variety is valued for its high yield, good taste, original fruit shape and color. Although there are isolated negative statements regarding taste, and the color in the seams does not look very advantageous. In addition, the plant requires garters and shaping.

Seeds can be bought new or used from a previous planting. First, the seeds are tested for germination. To identify the pacifiers, the seeds are immersed in water for 10 minutes, the pacifiers will float to the surface. You need to germinate seeds at room temperature, in a dampened cotton cloth. Add water daily. On the 5-6th day, the seeds are planted in the ground.

The first shoots appear in 3-4 days. It is necessary to control the moisture content of the soil, an excess of water will kill crops.

When the first signs of the disease appear, rotten shoots are destroyed, sometimes the whole bush is disposed of.

For fungal and viral diseases at the beginning of growth, tomatoes are treated with a solution of potassium permanganate with potassium. From the Colorado potato beetle in a greenhouse and in an open area, the bushes are treated with a standard solution of toxic chemicals.

I rarely appear in the garden. I bought pear seeds for my wife to test. I fertilized it myself 4 times, because it was planted in a greenhouse. Moreover, the climate is cold. The seedlings were strong, with good roots. The harvest from 15 planted bushes was more pleasing than other varieties. The tomatoes are juicy and have a long shelf life.
