In this video I will show you the most important tricks that you should follow now to increase your tomato harvest in the summer. This includes avoiding important mistakes when sowing and growing tomatoes and using a few tricks. These are: 1. Choosing the right variety Choosing the right tomato variety is crucial for a successful harvest. It is important to differentiate between different varieties such as cherry, balcony and stake tomatoes and to take personal preferences and the conditions in the garden into account. 2. Using chamomile tea Soaking the tomato seeds in chamomile tea promotes germination and offers additional protection against diseases. This simple measure can help to achieve a high germination rate and improve the health of the seedlings. 3. Creating the right growing conditions The right conditions must be created for successful sowing. This includes nutrient-poor soil, ideal temperatures between 22 and 26°C and sufficient light for the seedlings. 4. Keeping fungus gnats away Fungus gnats can damage the roots of young plants. Yellow stickers can help control infestations, while using nematodes is a biological method of controlling fungus gnats. Covering the seedlings with vermiculite can also help reduce infestations. 5. Proper time management It is important not to start sowing too early to avoid the young plants taking too long to grow. Being patient and waiting for the right time before planting the tomatoes outdoors is crucial for healthy plant development. 6. Fertilizing tomatoes Tomatoes require an adequate supply of nutrients during the growing season. Using an organic-mineral fertilizer can help promote plant growth and development. Particular attention should be paid to the supply of nitrogen and calcium. 7. Caring for tomatoes Good care during the growing season is crucial for healthy tomato plants. Regularly tying up and thinning stake tomatoes and providing the plants with sufficient light and water are important measures for achieving a bountiful harvest. 8. Avoid diseases Preventing diseases is an important aspect of growing tomatoes. Leaves must be kept dry to prevent the spread of diseases such as blight and leaf rot. Tools and hands should also be disinfected regularly to minimize the transmission of viruses. ------------------------------------------------------------ My recommendations*: Take a look at my shop: https://dergartencoach.com Tomato roof: https://dergartencoach.com/products/s...
