Varieties biography
Video Tomatoes “Mongol Callic” - the origin of the variety despite the many advantages of this variety, it is in the category of rare vegetables, and often it is difficult to find in large specialized seed stores. Due to the large number of positive reviews and the so -called “sundress radio”, “Mongol dwarf” is excellently spread among the gardeners and gardeners of Russia.
For most regions of the country, some features of the climate, soil state and the amount of moisture are characterized, therefore, choosing tomatoes for its garden, it is worth paying attention to their characteristics. The tomato "Mongol dwarf" has established itself as a universal variety. It gives the crop in hot climate equally well, as well as in regions with a short cool summer.
Due to its lowness, it is wonderful in various types of soil except too acidic, adapts well to temperature and is an unpretentious plant. Sometimes it is called a "tomato for lazy gardeners." The tomato "Mongol dwarf" can rightfully be called "Mr. Incognito." Where did he come from and what is the history of its origin? According to one version, by his distribution, he owes the gardeners of a certain horticultural partnership from Chelyabinsk.
The seeds of this tomato were once sold at the exhibition and continue to actively spread among gardeners. In favor of this version there is one proof - reviews of vegetable growers that ordered tomatoes from their colleagues from Chelyabinsk. Now the seeds of the "Mongol of Karlik" are quite widespread throughout Russia and even abroad. The most commonly called the “Mongolian dwarf”, but you can hear such names as “Mongol Tomat”, “Lazy Favorite” and others, in particular, this photo was taken from the website of the CroatInseeds-Store Croatian vegetable growers.
Rarely the height of the bush exceeds 30 cm and, moreover, it does not need to be stuffed at all - this greatly facilitates the care of this tomato. It is also distinguished by its early and abundant crops. Most often, after the appearance of 7 inflorescences, the growth of shoots ceases. As a result, we get delicious medium -sized fruits already at the beginning of summer tall varieties at this time only form their ovary.
The main features: In the growth process, the stem leans under its weight, so the actual height of the bush - see a very thick foliage behind which is often not visible fruit. A powerful root system that can feed a rather voluminous bush overloaded with fruits. The enhanced growth of stepsons at the bush in the process of growth appears a large, magnificent “beard”. Fragile bowed stems.
One plant can occupy up to 0.5 m of land in width and length. Ripe fruits are fleshy and large enough for such an early variety - gram. The taste of fruits is sweet and sour. A noticeable feature of the variety: the main branch in the bush reaching a length of 20 cm leans under its own weight. The main qualities of the fruits of the Mongol Dwarf tomato tomatoes are juicy, delicate pulp with moderate sourness in taste, the skin is loose.
They have a characteristic "tomato" taste. The fruits of a rounded neat shape with a bright red tint. Miraculously suitable for fresh consumption, as well as for canning and processing for tomato juice. As a rule, from one bush you can collect up to 10 kg of beautiful delicious fruits. Weight 1 tomato can be about grams, but on average it is a gram. The varietal characteristics and the appearance of the Mongol dwarf tomato grow in breadth, thereby forming a creeping bush, which can occupy from 0.5 to 1 meter in diameter.
The plant is distinguished by a particularly strong root system, which is located close to the surface of the earth, which makes root feeding more effective. On the main stem, after its landing into the ground, a large number of stepson processes begin to form, on which in the future it will be in the fruit of medium size. It is useful to know: stepsons in this variety play an important role for the further formation of the fruits, since they are branches on which the berries will be.
That is why the stepson for tomatoes "Mongol dwarf" is extremely unacceptable. Basically, gardeners try to leave all the stepson on the bush. Those who are too “clogged” with the bed are considered superfluous and diverge far beyond its limits. Such stepsons can be removed. The bush cannot be tied to the supports! The advantages and disadvantages of tomato tomato variety are quite attractive for landing in summer cottages, since it has many advantages: 1.
The low -growing determinant variety is easy to care for. During frosts, it is possible to easily save the crop by covering the bushes. Like any other tomatoes love watering, but in the event of a short drought, they are able to survive without losing the quality of fruiting. The high duration of the fruiting period is from the beginning of summer to the middle of autumn. The bush can lie on the ground for a long time without harm to the fruits, provided that a moist climate is moderate.
Tolerance to standard tomato diseases, for example, late blight.Fruits can maintain their commodity appearance for a long time and not crack even while on a branch in a wet climate. High yields of the variety are about 10 kg of tomatoes from one bush. Universal variety - suitable for planting in open ground and for growing in a greenhouse. You can grow directly in the house in a large container, for example, a bucket or a small pot of a significant size.
Provided to sow in early February, by the end of May you will already be harvested. It is well suited for fresh consumption, as well as for the preparation of tomato juice, the fruit is quite fleshy and juicy. The bushes tolerate bad weather conditions well, including strong and sharp gusts of wind. The disadvantages of the variety: 1. The seedlings of the “Mongol of the dwarf” appear a little later in time than other varieties, often - this is the day from the day of sowing.
It develops poorly in acidic and heavy soils. Not suitable for whole canning. In very damp weather, fruits can be rotten by lying on the ground. Mandatory soil mandatory is required. Methods of growing tomatoes “Mongol Carlic” can be grown in 2 ways - unbridle and seedlings. The first option is suitable for the southern regions of the country.
In this case, the seeds are sown in one hole and the first seedlings with real sheets appear until the first seedlings appear. After that, it is necessary to leave the strongest of them. In the regions that have a short and cold summer, it is better to sow the seeds of the “Mongol of the dwarf” first in seedlings, and then plant hardened and strong seedlings in open ground.
Here is the optimal sowing period: the end of March - early April. It is interesting to know: to obtain an earlier harvest of tomatoes, the seeds of the Mongol Callic variety can be sowed right into the greenhouse, having previously made the so -called “warm bed”, laying the litter from manure inside the beds. In the process of decay, manure will secrete a certain amount of heat sufficient for good growth in seedlings.
But a prerequisite is the presence of a rather voluminous surface layer of the soil above the layer of manure, the thickness of which should be at least 30 cm. The main stages of cultivation 1. Preliminary preparation of seeds to obtain a high percentage of germination, protect the plants from diseases, and further collect a good crop, should prepare them a little before the seed sowing.
Aloe juice is a powerful growth stimulant. You can also preliminarily conduct the process of germination of seeds. When buying tomato seeds, pay attention to the year of harvest indicated on the packaging. The shelf life of tomato seeds without loss of germination is up to 5 years, but subject to the rules of storage of seeds. The percentage of germination will directly depend on this.
The average term of sowing with dry seeds to the appearance of the first seedlings is days. It is useful to know: the optimal sowing depth should not exceed 1 cm. Planting seedlings of seeds is sown in a light nutrient substrate with soil acidity 5.5 - 6.0 pH. We recommend that you prepare the soil of the following composition: the riding deoxy peat or coconut substrate - 2 parts, biohumus or other well -ripened organics - 1 part, perlite or vermiculite 0.3 - 0.5 parts.
It is desirable to shed a soil mixture 1-2 days before planting with a solution of biofungicides in order to protect delicate seedlings from diseases, the pathogens of which can be in the ground. The most common and destructive for seedlings is a black leg. After the soil is prepared, you can start sowing seeds for seedlings. Or, if the place allows, then you can provide each plant with a separate seedling pot with an optimal volume of 0.4 liters.
Seeds should germinate in heat and in the dark. They are sown to a depth of 0, cm. It should be remembered that before sowing the soil should be compacted so that the seeds do not move down with loose soil. The soil over the entire surface is slightly compacted and after sowing. This is necessary so that with germination, the seed box can easily be removed, freeing the propagation.
We put containers with sown seeds in a warm place where the temperature should not be approximately 28 degrees. It is worth remembering that the lower the temperature, the slower the seeds germinate. If it is below 15 degrees, then the seedlings can not wait. Until the first loops can be kept in the dark, but as soon as the germination begins, it immediately needs to be rearranged under bright light, at least 6 thousand.
If the temperature is higher, especially with a lack of illumination, then the sprouts will begin to stretch too quickly, which is extremely undesirable. Water seedlings should be under the root as necessary. It is important to observe the balance. Earth lump should not dry out and should not be too wet.
