Sowing preparation

Before planting, the seeds are first checked for germination, for this they are dipped in a 5% saline solution. Seeds that are not suitable for planting float, those that remain at the bottom are taken out and dried. To grow stronger seedlings, they need to be tempered for 10 days, they do it as follows: they put them in the refrigerator overnight, and keep them warm during the day. On the day of sowing, the inoculum is soaked in "immunocytophyte" for 30 minutes, then put in "Epin-extra" for 3 hours.

The soil is also prepared in advance, during the winter it is taken out into the cold, then brought into the heat. Before planting in the ground, you can add a little wood ash.

Growing seedlings

The prepared seeds are sown to a depth of 1 centimeter, then watered and covered, for example, with cellophane. For sprouting, the optimum temperature is 23-25 degrees. After the emergence of seedlings on the surface of the earth, the shelter is removed, and the box with the seedlings is placed in a bright place, a window sill is perfect, the temperature in the room can be reduced by several degrees. In the evening, young seedlings are illuminated, since the daylight hours should be at least 15 hours.

After about two weeks, the seedlings will already release a couple of real leaves, which means that the plants can already be dived into separate containers. Before transplanting, the seedlings undergo a hardening procedure, they are first taken out into fresh air for a few minutes, and the time spent outdoors is gradually increased.

Varieties of early varieties

In terms of timing, early (early maturing) forms are distinguished with ripening in 90-99 days and ultra-early (ultra-early-maturing, ultra-early, extra-early) - 70-89 days. This division is very arbitrary, but there are grounds for it.

By the type of stem, some tomatoes are standard - they have a thick, strong trunk. Low-growing standard forms can be cultivated without supports and garters.

Tomatoes are:

indeterminate (with unlimited upward aspiration),
semi-determinant (they themselves stop growing at a height of 100-130 cm),
determinant - low and bear 4-6 hands on the main trunk;
superdeterminate - very low and tie only 2-3 clusters on the main stem.

Transfer to soil and care

Seedlings are planted in the beds, as soon as the weather returns to normal, the earth should warm up a little. Since autumn, the soil is fertilized with manure and compost, thus providing the bushes with nutrients for the entire season. In order to get an early harvest, the plants are transplanted into the soil when the flowering phase begins.

The recommended planting scheme is 70 by 30, that is, more than 6-7 plants should not be placed on one square meter. As you know, the bushes begin to bear fruit only after the root system has formed, therefore, it is necessary to regularly spud the bushes and loosen the aisles so that enough oxygen flows to the roots.

You need to water the tomatoes at least twice a week, pouring water, preferably at the root, without getting on the leaves.

During the period of abundant flowering, you can treat the bushes with a stimulant that helps the ovaries to form. The June variety does not require a garter and removal of stepchildren, but nevertheless, some gardeners advise to form a bush of 4 stems. You can fertilize with organic fertilizers, but there is no special need for this, for this variety there are enough nutrients that are contained in the soil.

Sowing tomato

Consider when to sow this variety. Each type of tomato is planted for seedlings at a specific time. If the correct dates for planting tomatoes are observed, then the bushes will be healthy and give a high yield. Tomato seedlings have a thick stem with 1-2 inflorescences. The distance between the nodes is small, 6-8 leaves grow on the stem. Sowing time for tomatoes depends on the climatic conditions of the area.

If the region has a cold climate, then seeds of the tomato variety Early Girl should be sown in mid-March, and planted in a greenhouse no later than the first decade of June. Seedlings can be planted in open ground only after the air temperature has returned to normal, and there will be no frosts at night. You can determine the time when tomatoes are sown yourself.If it is cool outside, then the seedlings will need to be planted in open ground later. Therefore, the date of sowing seeds must be shifted to the beginning of April. Flowers will appear 2 months after sprouting.

The best preparations from small tomatoes

There are many recipes for canning sweet small fruits:

Red tomatoes are pickled using allspice, black peppercorns, bay leaves, cloves of garlic. These ingredients are placed on the bottom of one-liter jars. The preparation of the marinade is usually: for 750 milliliters of water - one and a half tablespoons of salt, two - sugar, vinegar take nine percent in the amount of four teaspoons. Pour tomatoes twice: first with boiling water, then with boiling marinade.
To improve the taste, add a bunch of tarragon, basil, parsley, dill umbrella to the jars.
Tomatoes in their own juice are good. To prepare the juice, take the same amount of fruit as the Sweet Girl varieties. Dill, pepper, bay leaf, garlic cloves are placed at the bottom of the jars. Then the containers are filled with small fruits. Pour boiling water over them twice, draining the water. The third time comes the turn of boiled tomato juice, into which a tablespoon of salt is added per liter, two - sugar.
For drying, whole tomatoes are placed on a baking sheet, placed in a ventilated, hot room. As soon as the fruits are dry, they are put in jars and poured with vegetable oil.

Tinned tomatoes, especially small ones, serve as a wonderful decoration for a winter table.

Testimonials

Anna Vladimirovna, 27 years old:
Recently, I have been growing only early varieties of tomatoes. I tried a lot of hybrids, but eventually settled on the "Early Girl" variety. Early ripening and excellent taste are especially pleasing.
Kasatkin V.A., 40 years old:
Before I started planting the "Early Girl" tomato, I was tortured to fight late blight. The bushes died, ached, and I lost up to half of the tomatoes that were set. Nothing helped. Calm now. I do not fight the disease. I harvest the crop even before the appearance of this infection.

Pollination features

The cultivar is not self-pollinating. Therefore, the main task of the gardener is the need to create conditions acceptable for growth and fruiting. There are two options for pollination:

Natural pollination.
It is necessary to lure bees, bumblebees, other pollinators and ensure the movement of air masses. To do this, you will have to regularly open the transom doors in the greenhouse. Place honey plants between rows. To improve the taste of the harvest, plant marigolds or basil.
Artificial pollination.
The flowers of the pollinated tomato are wrapped back in petals. If this did not happen, and the ovaries were not formed, it is necessary to carry out an artificial pollination procedure. This should be done early in the morning, since the wind has not yet had time to blow off the pollen. Frequency - once every two days.

Artificial pollination methods:

Using brushes to transfer pollen.
Shake the plant. The procedure must be carried out very carefully and with each plant.
A fan can be used to provide air movement in the greenhouse. Turn on and walk between the bushes.

When finished with pollination, it is recommended to increase the air humidity. Watering or spraying will help with this.

Sometimes it is not easy to collect tomatoes for harvesting, as households quickly eat them. Children are ready to feast on sweet bunches of red fruits all the time.

Characteristics of Tomato Early Girl

At the stage of growing seedlings, a tomato can be distinguished from others by its strong, thickened stem, short internodes and the presence of 6-8 full-fledged leaves. It has 1-2 inflorescences.
The fruits themselves are of medium size, large specimens are practically not found. A ripe vegetable has a weight of 50 to 200 grams. It has a fragrant "tomato" smell and a mild, sweet taste. With a lot of nutrients. The color is bright red.

According to American agricultural experts, "Early Girl" is perfect for cultivation in conditions of a lack of moisture in the soil. At the same time, the fruits become more aromatic. They make excellent tomato juice.

The disadvantage of the variety is its weak resistance to low temperatures.

Disease prevention

Tomatoes are resistant to many known diseases, but they require constant preventive measures. The planting soil must be processed with copper sulfate or a weak solution of manganese. Young seedlings are sprayed with an antifungal drug (phytosporin) once every 14 days. The greenhouse is ventilated every 5 days to prevent the appearance and spread of gray mold.
Important! On contaminated soil, cultivation of any nightshade crops should be suspended for 3 years.

Regular removal of the lower leaf plates and weeds will keep the seedlings from pests. The diseased leaves are collected in a special container, taken out of the greenhouse and burned. Timely preventive measures taken will significantly help to reduce not only the level of fungal diseases on the site, but also prevent the appearance of dangerous pests. The most important thing is to carry out all the necessary manipulations on time before the fungus has spread too much.
