How to get strong seedlings: a personal experience

On FORUMHOUSE started sowing. In the majority of Russia's regions grow vegetables nonseedlings way is almost impossible. And the mature ones that planted seedlings, a month and a half earlier, and the fruits of their tastes, because maturing at high light day and accumulate a lot of nutrients. Without seedlings, in general, in any way, and today, based on years of experience of our members of the forum, we'll show you how to get the most important crop seedlings.

tomatoes

In preparation for the new garden season, Vikusha I chose the tomato seeds are not as usual, focusing on the taste, color and beauty of the fruit and resistance to viruses. Therefore, most of the ordered seeds are hybrids F1.

Primer for seedlings did the sawdust: 9 liters sawdust - 3 liters of sand, 50 grams of a mixture №1 (chalk boric + acid in the ratio 1: 100) and 15 g of a mixture №2: Potassium-magnesium 324 g + 199 g + 341 g of MAP + 136 g urea sulfate potassium).

Seedlings sowed in disposable cups of 5-8 pieces at the beginning of March. The seeds are not processed seeded dry. Tray with cups hid the film and set the battery. After the seeds hatch, he rearranged cup on the window sill.

Before transplanting it into the soil watered with a weak solution of fertilizer: mix №2, 1 tsp 3 L of water. Poured directly on the leaves. Watering is carried out on sunny days almost every day, in cloudy weather - less. Seedlings dosvechivaetsya fitolampy conventional desktop or from 7 am to 10.11 pm.

Picks do in the first true leaf stage.

Pepper

By planting peppers Natusik usually starts in early or mid-February. Last year it was February 5th. How to do:

- Prepare the tank has estimated how much grades could fit into each container, signed their names. Pour into containers purchased ground, the height of 6-7 cm. Strictly on the contrary, he made a shallow container sorts of names written on the edge of containers, poured boiling water over them and started planting.

Do not soak the seeds: the Dutch manufacturers are processed and soaked them is not recommended. Just laid them up a notch, moistened with an atomizer and covered with earth 0.5-1 cm. Once again, I moisten the ground of the sprayer.

The distance between rows should be 4-5 cm between seeds - 1.5-2 cm.

The container is closed with a lid and put on a couple of hours on the battery. Then he rearranged in the warmest place at a temperature of about 26-28 degrees.

After germination capacity rearranges Summer Resident with peppers in the most lit place: on a homemade rack on the windowsill. Each shelf rack attached fitolampy 120 cm long. The distance from the lamp to the seedling, on average, 15 cm. Supplementary lighting is performed from 7-30 to 22-30. Temperature: 20-22 degrees in the daytime, 18-20 degrees at night.

To avoid the appearance of blackleg - the main danger to the seedlings early, trying not to Natusik pereuvlazhnyat soil, and immediately after the pepper sprout, spud them in a row. Waters in the aisle, and near Stalks always dry.

When the seedlings appear true leaves, and it looks like in the photo below, the peppers can dive. An hour before picking the seedlings watered.

For the majority of members of the forum enjoys picking a teaspoon, first carefully separate row with peppers of the same variety, then divide the plant, trying to injure the roots as little as possible. Peppers are seated in separate containers and place them on the north window with light from two lamps. The temperature at the sill should be 18-20 degrees. Water the walls of the container, avoiding overflow.

By the way! Here are some varieties of hot peppers this year will grow our forum users:

• Trinidad
• Edited by Carolina (say, not acute case)
• BhutJolokia / Naga Jolokia (the severity of one million units on a scale Scovil).

Onions from seed

In late January - early February, the seeds are soaked, potted (30h20h10 cm) were filled with soil to a height of 8 cm. The composition should include compost, coco substrate, garden soil and sand in equal proportions. Ground lightly compacted palm. Grooves cut for the seed sowing, the distance between the rows - 5 cm between seeds in a row - 3 cm embedment depth - of 1 cm. Sow with tweezers better if each seed planted in its place the seedlings do not have to dive. At the beginning of the row set label with a signature type and date of planting.

Crops moistened with an atomizer, cover film so as not to evaporate the moisture, and put in a warm place at a temperature of 20 +... + 25 ° C. After three weeks, seedlings should appear loops. Then, to the onions are stretched, the seedlings are transferred to a cool light place where the temperature - from +16 to +20 ° C.

No new posts dalisima containers sometimes used instead of plastic bottles of 2 liters. In this case, the column of the earth in the bottle must be at least 25 cm in height, while developing strong roots. When the onions will grow up to 5-7 cm, crates day bring to the open air, protected from direct sunlight.

Onion seedlings planted in prepared beds with fall at the end of May. It is best to grow onions in the sun, in the place of cucumber, cabbage, potatoes and legumes.

How to sow?

How to grow vegetables, to not be killed in vain on the beds and then not to suffer, pristraivaya harvest the familiar? User FORUMHOUSEMariska I made a calculation for a family of three people and a garden with a total area of ​​48 sq.m:

• carrot ~ 4 m 2 -1 bag of seeds;
• beet ~ 1.6 m2 - 1/2 bag of seeds;
• beans to spray ~ 4.8 m2 - 1/2 = 10 seeds sachet bushes (grade 2);
• on cucumbers ground m2 ~ 4 - 2 = 20 seeds sachet bushes;
• courgettes / zucchini at ~ 4.8 m2 - PA1 sachet = 3 + 3 zucchini squash;
• onion 4 m2 - 1.0 kg Seva;
• garlic in winter ~ 7.5 m2 - 1.0 kg of garlic "vegetable department stores";
• herbs (dill, cilantro, parsley leaf, lettuce) / radish at ~ 1.6 m2 - 1 sachet;
• on peas ~ 0.8 M2-1 / 2 packets.

tomatoes needs to calculate difficult. Typically, for a family of three people planted bushes 40-50. Dmitriy063 advised not to be greedy, if necessary 20 bushes of tomatoes, it is best to plant the seedlings at 30, after sprouting to choose the best, and the rest - to distribute.

By the way, before soaking seeds experienced growers give birth diary works. Ginseng rascherchivaet sign with graphs: culture / date / work / notes. Filled with the tablet, for example, like this: Pepper / 23.02 / soaked /. Pepper / 24.02 / planted /, and so on for each crop. Subsequently, this will determine the optimal sowing time and the right amount of seeds.

How to slow the growth of seedlings

Dates seed planting seedlings every calculates, based on their circumstances, climate, loggia location, presence or absence of the greenhouse. But many are beginning to sow as early as the first decade of February. Most members of the forum said that it is better to play it safe, put the seedlings early, adding life "to every contingency." Unfortunately, at the end of March can be sown only early-maturing varieties, and really tasty, wonderful, meaty tomatoes only grow at an earlier crop. It is also a problem, because "outstay" seedlings is not helpful. And that seedling stems are not stretched in the thread, it is necessary to restrain the growth of foliage and encourage the development of the root system. To do this, the majority of members of the forum in April relocated seedlings on a fairly cold loggias.

That sho Nyusha (User FORUMHOUSE):

- late varieties of tomatoes have to count their positions 115-120 days. Sow later upreshsya in Fitou or just go out of date for a smaller harvest. So let it sit in the seedlings and counted the days. Let the root to grow, but not the tops.

Tatyana Quail a way to restrain the growth of seedlings learned from her grandmother. At night, when the seedlings have to drop in temperature, the grandmother surrounded by cushioning them with snow on the edge of the drawers, and between the rows. In this case, the snow must not touch the stem! If the winter with little snow, can namorozit ice in the refrigerator, gouging it, and this crumb obkladyvat seedlings.

Many gardeners the same sowing culture in different periods. For example, seeds from one package peppers seeded in late January, mid-February and early March to drop, respectively, as the availability of seedlings in the greenhouse, under the film and in the open ground.
