The nuances of growing a hybrid

The seedlings planted in February will be weak, too elongated, therefore more susceptible to various fungal and viral diseases.

Seed germination is about 94%. The picking of seedlings is carried out in the phase of 3 - 4 permanent leaves. After 1.5 months, the grown seedlings are planted in a greenhouse.During cultivation in indoor conditions, seedlings are usually fed 2 - 3 times with complex mineral fertilizers.

In the greenhouse, as in the room where the seedlings were grown, the temperature is maintained at about 23 ° C. The main thing is that condensation does not settle in the closed ground, which usually leads to the development of various fungal diseases in plants. To avoid a problem, it is recommended to regularly ventilate the greenhouse.
