Preparing seeds for planting

It is recommended to soak the seeds before sowing, this procedure has different purposes, depending on the solution in which it will be done. You can soak it in ordinary warm water, for this a two-layer piece of gauze is taken and the bottom of any container is lined, the seeds are laid out on this layer, we cover it with a second layer on top and soak it with warm water, but do not pour it! We cover tightly with foil or glass, it will be ideal to hold for 2-3 days. To increase the germination of seeds, they are soaked immediately before sowing for 30 minutes in a solution of any growth stimulant, for example "Ecosil". For disinfection of various pathogens, they are soaked in a solution of hydrogen peroxide (3 ml of peroxide are dripped per 100 ml of water), then the resulting solution is heated to 30 degrees and the seeds are soaked for about 20 minutes. Tip: for disinfection, experienced gardeners often use a solution of potassium permanganate, the color of ripe cherries, the seeds are etched in this solution for about 20-30 minutes, washed with plain water before planting.

Description of the variety of tomato Big raspberry, reviews, photos

The most successful tomato variety at the end of 2020 in my greenhouse. The bush is high, I had about 2 meters, with an ordinary leaf, the variety is indeterminate. I formed in 1 and 2 stems, the most successful option in 2.

Tomatoes Big raspberries are not only fruitful, but also delicious. The fruits are crimson hearts, quite large, I had 300-500 grams. The taste is amazing, delicate, sweet. I was amazed that there are practically no seeds in tomatoes, only "meat".

They did not hurt, did not crack. I will still grow and recommend everyone to try it.

I bought seeds from Valentina Redko, on the site of the sunny garden.

This is a natural tomato variety. Therefore, we recommend taking seeds from a ripe fruit and growing it again next season!

Reviews of those who planted tomatoes Big raspberries are unanimous in that this is one of the fleshy, sweet, large-fruited tomatoes.

Diseases and pests

The breeding characteristic describes the variety as resistant to many diseases. But, based on the experience of many gardeners, the variety is exposed to late blight, and like all nightshades, it is a favorite dish for the Colorado potato beetle. To prevent all kinds of fungal diseases, all seed material should be processed even before planting.

Throughout the season, plants are sprayed with various preparations that prevent the development of fungal spores. Viral diseases are often carried by insects, so it is very important to carry out treatment against parasites on time. Weeds can also be carriers. In the autumn, when cultivating the soil, you can add herbicides. These preparations completely destroy weeds and even the larvae of the Colorado potato beetle, which burrow into the ground for the winter to a depth of about 50 cm.

Where they grew up: Greenhouse
The tomatoes were fleshy, red-pink, there were a lot of fruits on the bush, the shape of the fruit is very beautiful - in the form of a heart, large. But I didn't like the taste at all: insipid and tasteless. Because of the beauty of the fruit, I might give him a second chance to open up next year.

Reviews on growing tomato Raspberry giant

Tatiana, Ramenskoe

I had two raspberry tomatoes growing - the Raspberry Giant and the Raspberry Giant. I liked the giant more, however, in the greenhouse I had it much higher than a meter (about 150 cm). The tomatoes are flat-round, large, very tasty.

Very fruitful, we ate it in salads, I stuffed it into all the blanks. I canned it in slices, took it in lecho, dressing, made the sauce, that is, it came up everywhere. The skin is rather red, but crimson when cut. There were no small tomatoes, all the large ones are just right for processing.

Zhanna, Velsk

When I was preparing tomato seeds for sowing, I was surprised that the Raspberry Giant has them so tiny. I thought nothing would grow, but in fact the seedlings were - for a sight for sore eyes. I highly recommend this variety, as there are no problems in leaving, it is very productive. Last year, I didn't have a lot of tomatoes in general, as I had to abandon my dacha due to a job change. It rarely appeared there, but this tomato has a lot of fruits. She took it off in green, everything was ripe, and then everyone went to salads.

Description of the set of seeds "Raspberry Miracle"

Tomatoes of the "Raspberry Miracle" series differ from other varieties of tomatoes in color. It is not red or pale pink, but bright crimson. Summer residents like these varieties with tender, juicy and sweet pulp. Scientific and production association "Sady Rossii", which was formerly called "Garden and Vegetable Garden", has been breeding the best varieties of raspberry tomatoes for 12 years. As a result, they created 3 series of plants called "Raspberry Miracle". Each set includes 5 varieties of tomatoes:

All varieties of this series have good immunity to late blight and other fungal diseases that are characteristic of tomatoes.

The seed packages of the Raspberry Miracle series of tomatoes indicate that they are F1 hybrids. But in the State Register there is no note that these plants belong to hybrids. From this, it can be assumed that these tomatoes are separate varieties that have all the advantages of hybrid plants: resistance to diseases, high yields and germination.

All tomatoes in this series are intended for growing in all regions of the country in the open field (if climatic conditions permit) or in greenhouse conditions. These varieties are mainly used for fresh consumption as a salad crop. Some varieties can also be used in canning and juicing.

Tomato varieties from the Raspberry Miracle set require shaping and garters. These are determinant plants (that is, limited in growth). But their height can vary from 0.6 m to 2 m. The yield of the bushes is also different, depending on the type of plant.

Pink tomatoes have a lower acidity than red ones.

Pros and cons of the variety

The Raspberry Giant tomato has many advantages:

Large fruit size.
Excellent taste characteristics of tomatoes.
Early ripening, high yield.
Presentable appearance, due to which these tomatoes can be grown not only for private use, but also for sale.

The Raspberry Giant tomato is an unpretentious vegetable crop that can be grown both in the southern and northern regions, but it is necessary to maintain the optimum temperature. If you properly care for the seedlings, then regularly feed and water the plants, in August you can get a harvest of large and juicy tomatoes.

Features of growing and planting tomato "Raspberry Miracle"

There are no peculiarities in growing tomatoes from the Raspberry Miracle series. Like all tomatoes, they are grown in seedlings. Planting time depends on the region and the growing method (outdoor or greenhouse). Seedlings are planted in ready-made soil for seedlings or a mixture of sand, humus and soil from the garden.

When planting in a common box, when the first true leaves appear, the seedlings dive into separate cups. Seedling care involves timely watering, feeding, supplementary lighting with a lack of sunlight.

Seedlings are planted in a permanent place when the threat of frost has passed.

The formation of bushes can be done in 1, 2 or 3 stems. To make the crop ripe as quickly as possible, the first method is used. All stepchildren are removed from the main stem.

When a bush is formed into 2 stems, the harvest will be a little later, but its amount will be much larger. On the main stem, all stepchildren are removed, except for one, which grows from the axil of the leaflet under the first brush. It is from there that the second trunk will grow.

When a bush is formed into 3 stems, a stepson is also left under the first brush and one of the strongest of the lower sinuses.

In the greenhouse, bushes of 1 and 2 stems are most often formed.

Scheme of the formation of determinant tomatoes: a - in 1 stem, b - in 2 stems, c - in 3 stems

Agrotechnical cultivation

On each of the bags with seeds of raspberry varieties of tomatoes it is written that they can be grown in all regions of our country, both in open and closed ground. Tomato bushes are highly resistant to changeable weather conditions, continuing to grow and develop even with sudden changes in temperature.

It is advisable to germinate the seeds before sowing. Usually these tomatoes are grown in seedlings. The containers are filled with a special soil for vegetable plants, which can be purchased at specialized stores. No more than 18-20 seeds should be planted in each container.

As the shoots appear, the weakest ones should be removed. Thinning is carried out periodically until 8-9 of the strongest and most powerful seedlings remain in each container. With this method of growing, picking of seedlings is not required.

Watering 5-6 times a day

Seedlings watering - once every 5-6 days. During the period of growing seedlings, you can feed it a couple of times with complex mineral fertilizers. Young plants should be planted in a permanent place when a constant temperature of 16-17 degrees C is established.

In Siberian regions, after planting tomatoes in a permanent place in open ground, greenhouses should be installed on the beds so that the tomatoes do not freeze.

Further care of the growing bushes of this vegetable crop provides for regular watering, loosening the soil, removing weeds, applying top dressing and the obligatory tying of shoots to supports.

Testimonials

Inspired by the description of episode 1 of the Raspberry Miracle in the Gardens of Russia catalog, I bought the coveted five sachets for 265 rubles. I live in Omsk, I planted tomatoes in open ground. At the stage of seedling and fruit setting - a feast for the eyes, not tomatoes, lush, dark green, strong, tied 5-7 brushes. BUT: the whole series has almost the same fruits, round, small, tough, the taste is mediocre, like store-bought ones. The largest single fruits are 200 grams, the rest of the weight is 100–150 grams, suitable only for whole-fruit canning. Although agricultural techniques were followed and top dressing was introduced. This also applies to other hybrids from the Gardens of Russia - Balsam, Doctor Summer, Ivan da Marya. All are similar in taste and size and do not correspond to the declared characteristics. In the catalog and on the bags, the description of the characteristics was clearly written by the poet-storyteller. At the same time, proven varieties and hybrids of other companies in the open field this year were very successful both in size and quantity. Maybe the Raspberry Miracle is not for open ground in Western Siberia?

This year I planted the whole series. I planted it immediately in open ground. Good, powerful bushes grew, they tied well, the fruits were large. She led in 3-4 stems, was greedy, did not cut off unnecessary stepsons. But for the time being I’m not a gardener, I picked the tomatoes green at the beginning of August, tk. frightened by phytophthora. The tomatoes ripened for a long time, but those that I left on the bush did not get sick and ripened well, faster than the plucked ones.The taste is normal, sugar-like in the cut, I liked it, although they were strong.

This year I discharged it and put it in a greenhouse. The height was no more than 150 cm. The largest pulled at 400 g. Beautiful and tasty. I am satisfied with the yield, although I expected something more from them.

The Raspberry Miracle Seed Kit has established itself as a series of high-yielding, easy-to-grow tomatoes. Despite the fact that there are negative reviews, there are still a lot of positive impressions from the harvest.

Tomato is a popular vegetable among gardeners-gardeners, for which there is at least a bed on the site. There are now a great many varieties of various tomatoes on the seed market. Often the owner of the site is at a loss before choosing which variety to prefer.

It helps the gardener to more accurately navigate and buy what he wants, the characteristics and description of each tomato variety, as well as photos and reviews about the yield, for example, Raspberry flesh. This variety is relatively young, appeared not so long ago.

But it has already established itself very well, it is becoming more and more popular.

Reviews of vegetable growers about the variety

Galina, 34 years old, Pyatigorsk
I saw the Raspberry Giant tomato in the photo and was seduced by the beauty of the fruit. I bought the seeds from Zedek. The result was frankly pleasing: I grew up in the OG, practically without difficulties. True, they turned out to be rather average than early ones, but the tomatoes turned out to be very tasty, and there were quite a few of them. On average, I took a bucket from every three bushes. Shaped into 2 stems. I did not normalize the ovaries, so the tomatoes were medium in size (up to 300 g), but there is no dispute about the taste: one of the best. Fleshy, juicy, sweet. And they ate in salads, and rolled up the juice. Collected seeds, I will grow more.

Ivan, 48 years old, Belgorod
I have this "giant" for several years. Delicious, wonderful color. There are no problems if you correctly pinch and treat diseases. I grow in a greenhouse, I lead in 2 stems. It is not necessary to pinch: the stems stop growing after 5-6 brushes. But you must tie it up. If left without support, the bushes "fall apart", the stems fall on the ground. Once I tried to normalize the ovaries (I left 3 on each brush). I didn't like the result: the tomatoes came out very large (up to 500 g on the lower clusters), but irregular, "gnarled", and began to crack from the stalk. I will not repeat this experience. The average fruit size suits me perfectly.

Alla, 29 years old, Volgograd
In the open field, this variety grows well for me, the fruits are tasty, the yield is about 4 kg per bush. The seeds were given by friends. Plants match the description except for early maturity. Ripening begins 110 days after germination. Bears fruit for a long time, in August still forms ovaries with might and main. The bushes must be pinned and tied up: the fruits are heavy, the stems bend and break. The largest ones grew up to 600 g, but this was on the lower hands, on the upper ones they were smaller. My favorite to taste. It is simply irreplaceable in summer salads. I made juice and ketchup, I also liked it.

Love, 51 years old, Omsk
Great tomato. The fruits are beautiful, fleshy. True, they are not stored, but the taste is very high. And in terms of resistance to all sorts of misfortunes, the variety is not the worst. In the greenhouse I spray from phytophthora 2 times per season, the plants do not get sick. I shoot the last brown tomatoes in mid-September. The yield is decent, a total of at least 4 kg per bush. I have had seeds for three years already, but the first ones were bought from "Sedek".

Raspberry tomato varieties

Advantages and disadvantages

Everything in nature has its pluses and minuses. The Raspberry Fleshy Tomato also has advantages and disadvantages.

Advantages:

fruiting is quite long;
large-fruited;
high commercial qualities;
great taste;
universality of use;
good keeping quality;
resistance to various tomato diseases;
the yield is rich;
the possibility of growing in any regions of the Russian Federation;
perfectly ripened;
do not crack;
they are undemanding to care;
does not need shaping;
very few stepsons;
resistant to temperature extremes.

All these positive qualities of tomatoes make the variety very popular among gardeners.

Disadvantages:

Some consider the disadvantage of the difficulty in preserving their favorite variety - large fruits are practically not pushed into the jar neck.

More: the need for tying, despite the low growth: large fruits incline the stem of the plant to the ground.

They are demanding on the soil: in order for large tomatoes to ripen quickly and become very sweet and tasty, so that they bear fruit for a long time and give a high-quality harvest, they need additional feeding.

These are all the disadvantages, which, however, many gardeners, gardeners consider advantages.

Recommendations for tomato agrotechnology

When buying seeds, you need to carefully study the information, choose the Raspberry Giant variety, and not a hybrid.

Sowing seeds

The usual sowing time for seedlings of such tomato varieties is March, more precise dates are determined taking into account the climatic conditions of the region and the phases of the lunar calendar. Before sowing, prepare:

soil for seedlings;
pots, boxes, cups - containers where tomatoes will grow first, and then after diving.

Seed material is calibrated, then soaked in approximately pink potassium permanganate solution. Many people know about this simple example of seed disinfection, but they often violate the exposure time or the concentration of the composition. Tomato seeds are soaked for no more than 15-20 minutes, the concentration of the solution should be minimal.

After a "bath" in potassium permanganate, it is recommended to rinse the seeds with clean water. The next stage is soaking in a growth stimulator, for which they use EPIN, aloe juice diluted in water or a saturated ash infusion. Then the seeds are placed in wet gauze for germination (you can use cotton pads or napkins).

As soon as sprouts appear, the seeds are sown in boxes with soil, covered with foil and removed to a warm place. From the moment the first shoots appear, the shelter is removed, the tomatoes are exposed.

We take care of seedlings

When germinating seeds, the temperature should be between + 25 ° C ... + 27 ° C. As soon as shoots have appeared, the degrees are reduced to + 18 ° C and withstand this regime for about 4-5 days.

Subsequently, the temperature should be + 20 ° C ... + 23 ° C, tomatoes do not like extreme heat. With insufficient lighting, abundant watering and high temperatures, the plants will stretch, and this should not be allowed.

Therefore, they maintain optimal air temperature indicators, watered regularly, but in moderation. In March and April, lamps are used for supplementary lighting of plants.

As soon as 2-3 leaves are formed in the seedlings, the tomatoes are dived. The procedure allows you to slow down the pulling of seedlings, build up a strong root system for tomatoes, and reject the weakest seedlings.

Water the tomatoes with warm, settled water, trying to prevent water drops from falling on the plants. The soil should be slightly moist, but without excess moisture. Tomatoes in hot rooms with abundant watering are prone to black leg disease, and this phenomenon must be prevented. As a preventive measure, you can use water with potassium permanganate for irrigation (slightly pink solution), carefully ventilate the premises, and avoid temperature changes.

After diving, the seedlings are fed twice (with an interval of 10-12 days), for which complex fertilizers are used. Also, such compositions as Kemira, Ideal, Agricola are suitable for tomatoes.

It is very important that the seedlings are strong and hardened when planting them in a permanent place. In about 10-14 days, tomatoes begin to gradually accustom themselves to new conditions, for which they are taken out to balconies, loggias, to a greenhouse. You can open windows, vents, but only if weather conditions permit.

Plants withstand first about 15-30 minutes, and then they increase the time to several hours.

Planting plants

The timing of tomato transplantation is determined depending on the region, taking into account the air temperature, the conditions for growing plants (in the beds, in the shelter).

In unprotected soil, the Raspberry Giant is grown even in regions such as the Urals, Siberia, and provided a good summer, the yields will be excellent. But it is still advisable to think over options with a greenhouse in such areas, then the result will be guaranteed.

Plants can be planted in shelters from the end of April (middle lane), in mid-May (more northern regions). Outdoors - late May or early June. The soil should warm up to + 14 ° C ... + 16 ° C, for which you can cover the ground with a black film about 7-10 days before planting.

This variety is planted with three bushes per square meter, in pre-prepared holes. Small plants of this tomato do not need powerful supports, but stakes can be placed in the open field.

Features of growing varieties

Since the Raspberry fleshy variety is early maturing, its cultivation differs from the cultivation of other varieties in its characteristics.

Recommended growing regions

The variety is relatively young, there is not a lot of information about it yet. However, it is known that it was bred by Russian breeders, presumably it belongs to the Siberian-Altai series of tomatoes. The originator is.

Raspberry fleshy can be grown both outdoors and indoors.

Therefore, it is quite possible to grow it successfully in any region of the Russian Federation: in the south and in the middle lane - in an open garden (if you want to get earlier products, you can plant it in greenhouses), in more northern and colder regions with good results, this variety is confidently grown in closed ground, in areas of risky farming.

Since the Raspberry Fleshy Tomato variety is early ripe, it “goes away” from many tomato diseases, even from phytophthora. Subject to the prescribed rules of agricultural technology and the preventive measures taken, these tomatoes can calmly grow healthy and bear fruit successfully.

Diseases

More often, this tomato gets sick with the wrong planting scheme in the garden and with non-observance of the rules for growing tomatoes in greenhouses.

The premises should be kept clean, disinfected after harvesting and before planting seedlings (the use of a sulfur checker is effective).
All plant residues should be removed from the greenhouse, weeded regularly, avoiding the growth of weeds, which are carriers of viruses and bacteria, fungal spores and rot.
The temperature regime and the level of humidity and illumination should be monitored regularly; ventilate the room.

Advice! In order for the plants in the greenhouse to be better and longer illuminated by the sun, it should be located from north to south (end face).

Preventive measures common to any soil:

Observe the row and row spacing required for the grade.
Avoid waterlogging of the soil, excessive moisture in the greenhouse.
Regularly inspect the plantings: at the first signs of infection, carry out the fungicide treatment, strictly observing the dosage, the frequency of treatments prescribed in the instructions that are attached to them.
Do not plant other plants from the nightshade family (peppers, eggplants, physalis, potatoes) next to tomatoes.
It is useful to carry out preventive treatments with solutions or infusions.
It is best to remove diseased bushes from the site immediately, then burn them to prevent the spread of the infection.
Weed the beds in a timely manner, remove weeds.

For the prevention of fungal diseases, it is useful to periodically treat tomato bushes with Phytosporin or copper-containing preparations (copper sulfate, Bordeaux liquid).

If you do not want to use chemicals, you can process tomato bushes with infusions or solutions according to folk recipes, using, for example, products such as:

milk serum;
saline solution;
potassium permanganate + garlic;
rotten hay or straw;
trichopolum;
iodine + milk;
ash;

Infusions from tomato or potato tops, and also with calendula flowers, also work effectively.

Growing seedlings

To successfully grow seedlings, you need to properly prepare the seeds and soil. First of all, it is important to prepare the planting material so as not to experience problems when growing. Use only healthy seeds. Before planting, they must be disinfected by dipping them in a weak solution of potassium permanganate for 2 hours. After that, remove them from the container, wash with running water.

The seeds must be planted in March. Prepare plastic containers in advance, fill them with substrate.To do this, take soil and humus in a 1: 1 ratio. It is advisable to use crumbly humus so that in the future the soil can be easily loosened. Use organic fertilizers. Enough 30 g of superphosphate, as well as a small glass of ash. After placing the seeds in the box, cover them with a layer of earth a little less than 1 cm.

Water the plantings with a solution of a small amount of manganese. Place the seed box either outdoors or on a windowsill. It is advisable to ensure daily exposure of the seedlings to sunlight. Monitor soil moisture levels daily. Once it's dry, water your plantings. The first shoots can be expected to appear in a week.

Pests and diseases

Among the varieties of tomatoes, the Raspberry Giant variety is highly resistant to many diseases and pests. Since the fruits begin to ripen early, the plant does not have time to catch the period when the infection is actively spreading.

Despite the good immunity, vegetable growers recommend preventive treatment of the beds. For this purpose, boric acid, infusion of garlic, onion husks, and wood ash are used. Among biological products, Epin, Zircon, Oxygumate are considered safe and effective.

Description and characteristics of the variety

Tomato Raspberry fleshy - determinant standard undersized variety. Features of the bushes:

the height varies in the range of 30-50 cm;
stepchildren are a little late, so pinching is not required;
leafiness and branching are moderately expressed;
the stems are powerful and sturdy;
fruits 3-5 per bunch;
number of brushes 7-8.

Raspberry fleshy tomato from "Sedek" ripens in the early stages - 90-112 days from germination. Fruiting lasts from summer to autumn, with the arrival of frost, the last harvests are harvested for storage.

Characteristics of tomatoes:

average weight 350-450 g;
pulp is fleshy, moderately juicy;
dry matter level 5-6%;
rounded, flattened shape;
seed chambers 4-6;
dry matter level 6%.

> Advantages and Disadvantages

10-12 kg are collected from 1 m2. The yield from 1 bush is 4.5-5 kg.

Care

Proper care of Raspberry Giant tomatoes includes a set of measures:

watering;
weeding;
fertilization;
garter;
pinching.

Watering and feeding

Pieces should be watered as needed.

Plants should be watered as needed. Water must be poured at the root. The first time fertilization should be applied one week after transplanting.

Last year's foliage can be used as fertilizer. It is poured around the bushes. After some time, they will rot and nutrients will begin to flow into the ground. A manure solution is also used, which is periodically watered over the plants. Top dressing is stopped 3-4 weeks before the fruits ripen.

Loosening the soil

To increase yields, you need to regularly cultivate the soil between the rows. This helps to provide the root system with the required amount of oxygen. Weeding is carried out after precipitation and watering.

The heavier the soil, the deeper you need to loosen it. Along the way, weeds should be removed. The procedure must be carried out very carefully so as not to damage the root system.

Garter and pinning

For the garter, you need to prepare a dressing material that contacts directly with the stem. It is forbidden to use thread or wire. As it grows, tough materials will damage the stem and it may die. A cotton fabric cut into strips 10-15 cm wide is best. Before use, the fabric should be treated with a manganese solution.

There are a variety of accessories in stores today for tying and holding individual brushes. They are reusable. The garter helps the bushes to cope with the heavy weight of the fruit. It is also recommended to tie up individual bunches so that they do not break off the stem.

Raspberry Giant tomatoes require partial pinching. The ideal option is to form a crown in 2 stems. The leaves of the lower tier are to be removed before the first ovary. Grassing extra leaves allows you to speed up the ripening process of fruits and improve their quality indicators. To get a good harvest, you need to leave up to 6 fruits in bunches.

Features of growing and storage

4-5 bushes are planted per 1 m2. The distance between the holes is 40-50 cm. Transplant terms - the age of the seedlings is 50-55 days.

How are they looked after:

moderately watered, the water rate is 6-7 liters per 1 bush;
fed 2 times a month, a mullein solution, phosphorus-potassium mixtures are used from fertilizers;
when ripe, boric acid is used.

To avoid excessive moisture evaporation and protect the bushes from pathogenic fungi, mulching is carried out with a layer of 8 cm.

Tomato care

After planting, the plants are left alone for a while for full adaptation. Watering during this period is not needed, and the first time tomatoes are watered no earlier than a week later.

They loosen the soil, remove the weeds, which at this very time begin to grow violently. After about 18-20 days, the first feeding is carried out using a diluted mullein (1:10) or complex fertilizers (nitrophosphate).

In the agricultural technology of tomatoes, an important place is given to irrigation. They should be moderate, regular, and abundant. It is optimal to equip the shelter with a drip irrigation system, but this is not always possible. Most often, summer residents usually watered - from a watering can, a hose, while it is recommended to use holes or grooves. Flowing water can erode the soil at the roots of plants, and if grooves are made, the soil will be moistened evenly, the water will reach the roots.

ON A NOTE! Tomatoes are watered with warm and settled water.

The norm for each plant is about 3-4 liters, during the period of flowering and fruit setting, the volumes increase. For tomatoes in open ground, rains are a good help; in a greenhouse, all watering is assigned to a person. It is important not to allow high humidity in the shelter, otherwise the tomatoes will hurt.

Abrupt breaks in the watering schedule lead to cracking of the tomatoes. Although the Raspberry Giant variety is not prone to cracking the fruit, with long pauses in irrigation, cracks and splits may appear on these tomatoes.

The feeding schedule should also be adjusted to ensure that the plants receive all the nutrients they need. After the first feeding, take a break of about 10-14 days and spend the second, using mineral phosphorus and potash fertilizers instead of organic matter.

They love watering tomatoes with ash infusion, as well as "green tea" - herbs infused with water. It is impossible to violate the dose of fertilizers, to introduce a lot of nitrogen, from which the plants "fatten", and the number of ovaries is reduced.

Tomatoes need nitrogen in the first half of the growing season, while later plants need potassium and phosphorus. Good results are obtained by watering tomatoes with banana peel infusion, baker's yeast. In stores, you can buy ready-made compositions for watering tomatoes, which contain all the nutrients necessary for the culture.

Do not forget about foliar feeding, which is very effective in cloudy weather.The assimilation of nutrition in this form is much faster, tomatoes bloom profusely, form fruits faster.

This variety is most often formed into one stem, less often into two. The raspberry giant needs partial pinching, for which the lateral shoots are removed in the axils below the flower brushes.

The variety is quite resistant to diseases and pests, it manages to "go away" from phytophthora due to the early ripening of the fruits. But prevention is needed in any case, therefore, from the end of June, plants are sprayed with special formulations:

boric acid (one teaspoon is taken for 10 liters);
Epin, Oxygumat (diluted according to the instructions for the drug);
infusions of garlic, wood ash.

It is recommended to dust tomatoes in open ground with dry ash, as well as a mixture of ash and tobacco dust. This treatment helps protect plants from insect pests.

The fruits are harvested in a state of technical maturity, although in a greenhouse you can let the tomatoes fully ripen on the bush. Harvesting green fruit allows the plant to channel its forces into the formation of tomatoes in other clusters, which helps to increase the overall yield from the bushes.

Seedling transplant and follow-up care

After 45-50 days (approximately mid-May), when the main stem is 15-18 cm in height, the seedlings can be transplanted into the greenhouse.

They are planted in open ground at an average outdoor temperature of 18-20 °:

the soil is selected sandy loam and not acidified;
cucumbers, zucchini or potatoes should not be grown in front of the tomatoes in the garden;
the transplant is carried out not in hot weather (in the morning or in the evening);
the distance between bushes and rows is approximately 50 cm;
the holes should be of a convenient size for the root system;
water every 4-6 days with water at room temperature, periodically remove the weed and loosen the ground.

():
Cucumber and zucchini are some of the best precursors for tomato, because a lot of organic fertilizer is applied under them and they leave behind a more fertile land.

During the season, it is necessary to apply fertilizers 3 times:

10-15 days after disembarkation of seedlings;
when the vegetable begins to bloom;
before the beginning of fruiting.

To do this, use a special complex water-soluble mineral dressing Aelita-Vegetable (there is an NPK complex in the composition), which provides the necessary nutrition. Mineral solutions Agricols, Good Strength, Kid are suitable.

From organic matter - infusion of mullein (1 liter of mullein per 20 liters of water) or droppings (1:10). For one bush, 300-400 ml is enough.
