Pay attention to the combination of soil when planting small tomatoes, especially when planting small tomatoes in pots at home. The soil used should be fertile and rich in organic matter. Wholesale manufacturers of characteristic tomato seeds recommend using one part of garden soil, three parts of decomposed agricultural and miscellaneous fertilizers, and one part of biological agents before planting. This type of soil is relatively fertile and does not burn roots, and there is no need to frequently apply water-soluble fertilizers in the later stage.
After sowing, the soil should be thoroughly watered and covered with a transparent plastic film to maintain humidity and increase temperature for germination. The tomato grown in this way will have a stronger root system. When the two leaves are unfolded, the plastic film will be removed. High temperatures can cause the edges of the leaves to dry up.
Throughout the entire growth process, do not lack water and keep the soil slightly moist. When the soil surface is slightly dry, simply water it thoroughly. Because new soil is used for planting, which has good permeability and will not be reused.
Tomatoes grow very quickly. When they reach eight leaves, removing the two lower leaves can make the tomato grow taller. The taller the plant, the more fruits it can bear. However, as it is a potted plant, the height of the small tomatoes is generally controlled at around 1.5 meters.
