His harvest does not fit in the buckets, therefore this good man treats all those from whom they have not mutilated as well as his. And with the most curious ones like me, he shares his growing tips.

“So, at what distance should the tomatoes be planted?” I asked my neighbor. “Tomatoes love space and light. When they are cramped, they, lovebirds, grow slowly. There are few leaves on the bushes, and the fruits themselves can be tiny.

The distance between bushes and between beds depends on the variety and type of tomatoes! – Fyodor Mikhailovich began to share life hacks.

Here is what I noticed for myself from his advice: tall “de barao”, “cardinal” or “micado pink” is better to plant at a distance of up to 70 m between the bushes, while the distance between the neighboring rows can reach up to 1 m.

Mid-sized varieties “lady’s finger”, “oak” or “pink bull heart” is planted at a distance of about 55 cm from each other and at least 70-80 cm between the rows.

Compact varieties of tomatoes that do not differ in the height of the stems (for example, “marisha”, “maiden blush” or “sank”) should be placed at a distance of 30 cm between the bushes and 50 cm between the rows.

Please note that greenhouse Remember that each bush needs 0.3 square meters of land. Between the rows should leave a space of at least 40 cm. This, we can say, a classic, under which you will create the bush optimal conditions for growth (light, nutrition, airing).

About three years ago, I also started with classics, strictly measuring centimeters, but every year the toad came to me one more than the other. I wanted to plant as many varieties as possible, as many seeds as I could, and I lowered and reduced and lowered standards. Last year, I reached the minimum level at which tomatoes can be grown. harvest.

And this minimum was 30 cm between plants. To this I also managed to place 2 roots in the hole (it was a pity to throw out seedlings).

In the end, it was wildly boring. Tomatoes required almost constant presence in the country. Every morning - bypassing greenhouses, removing stepchildren, lightening densely decorated varieties (removing part of the foliage). As a result, the harvest was not as good as the neighbor. And as a bonus, I'm really tired.

In 2022, I decided to stick to it. standards described above If possible, do not plow like a horse in the country, and finally begin to rest there.
