    The length of daylight hours is important for the safe growth of this variety.

    Growing tomatoes at home

    To grow a variety at home and properly care for it, it is recommended to use unglazed pots. They breathe well, with good drainage holes.

    After transplanting seedlings into a stationary container, the tomatoes are fed with phosphorus fertilizer( bone meal) and continue to do this every two to three weeks during the entire growing season.

    How to grow indoors

    In the house, the plant is placed in a warm and sunny place .This is usually a window facing south or southwest. In winter, you will have to add artificial lighting to ensure that the plant is guaranteed to receive the necessary portion of light. The preferred air temperature in the room is 18–25 ° C.

    The “Balcony Miracle” is considered not to be tied up, but an effective support structure does not prevent the plant from bending under its own weight. It will ensure good air circulation in the inner part of the plant.

    Tying up tomatoes is not an obligatory measure with this variety, but also not prohibited.

    Use a metal grid, a simple trellis or an elastic wire, directed vertically from the top down and fixed on the soil surface with a short wooden peg.

    Home care

    Gardening soil is too heavy for growing tomatoes in pots - too compact and potentially contains pathogens. Tomatoes are very susceptible to soil pests.

    Soil

    For best results, the pots are filled with high-quality bio-soil or soil mixture, purchased in a specialized store or cooked by yourself, which will ensure good air circulation and moisture of the , which is so necessary for the plant, to stimulate vigorous root development.

    The topsoil should be about 3 cm below the edge of the pot so that you can add mulch to keep moisture. Traditional mulch materials are used: straw, chopped bark, leaves or newspaper. The layer is updated as necessary during the growing season.

    Watering

    Proper watering is the key to success in growing Balcony Miracle. The soil should be steadily wet, but not oversaturated with .As far as the plant needs water, it is tested by touch every two days. If the topsoil is dry, then it's time to water.

    A tray is placed under the pot to drain water through the soil and drainage holes; the plant absorbs this additional moisture during the day. When growing several potted tomatoes helps to reduce the time of watering drip irrigation system.

    Top dressing

    Tomatoes grown in containers are fed with organic fertilizers every two weeks. You can do this more often, especially during the flowering period, as with each watering nutrients are washed out of the pot.

    Tomatoes outdoors are pollinated by the wind .At home, to achieve the same effect will help table fan aimed at the plant. Alternatively, pollination is carried out with a cotton swab.

    Cultivation in open ground

    Tomatoes are a risky crop for open ground, but the Balcony Miracle variety, ripening faster than many other varieties, is a good option in this regard. It can be cultivated in almost any region, taking into account the climatic features.

    Preparation of seedlings takes for six to eight weeks .Before you transplant it in open ground, you need to wait until the threat of frost has passed, and then begin to harden, gradually, over 10 days, introducing tomatoes into nature.

    Acclimatization of seedlings to external conditions helps it to adapt well. Seedlings put on the street for several hours a day in a windless and shady place. If necessary, over seedlings on the windward side tension covering material.

    Each time they are left for some time longer and gradually increase insolation, pushing the plants out of the shade. After five or six days, seedlings are left for the night. and in the following days they are not brought into the room( if the danger of frost has passed).

    For planting in the open field, the variety must be taught to be outside

    . Tomatoes are ready to be transplanted into the open ground when night temperatures are consistently above 10.

    How to grow in open ground

    Culture requires a seat in an open, well-lit area, with 8 hours and more direct sunlight, adequate protection from strong winds.

    The ideal soil acidity level for growing Balcony Miracle is between 6 and 6.8.If necessary, adjust the pH, it will take several months, and you need to start early, in the autumn.

    With excessive acidity, uses a method of liming( applying lime fertilizers: wood ash, dolomite flour, slaked lime, etc.).Strong alkalinity, which has an adverse effect on plant development, is neutralized with a weak solution of sulfuric acid.

    Temperature mode

    When planted in open ground, the air temperature should be above 10 at night, but the soil always stays colder. The warmer the soil, the faster the tomatoes will grow!

    One way to warm it with an is to cover the area with black plastic film for several weeks after preparing the beds for planting. It absorbs heat from the sun during the day and directs it to the soil at night.

    In regions of cold climate with a short growing season, the film is left for several weeks after planting the tomatoes, placing the seedlings in the ground through small cuts on it.

    Weeds

    The soil is cleared of weeds, loosened to a depth of at least 20 centimeters using a cultivator( or forks).A 5 cm layer of compost is spread on the surface and mixed thoroughly with the soil.

    Fertilizers

    Filling with compost with the addition of an adequate amount of fertilizer or rotten manure is a prerequisite for providing tomatoes a good start for healthy development. Dig a hole a few centimeters deeper than the size of the pot with the seedling and distribute the top dressing.

    Compost Bone Meal

    Bone Meal with high phosphorus content is one of the best means to strengthen the roots. Three weeks after planting, a fertilizer with a high nitrogen content( blood meal, fish emulsion) is added to the surface to support vegetative growth.

    The frequency of planting

    It is often tempting to plant tiny seedlings of a miniature hybrid as close as possible to each other. The recommended interval, providing good air flow between the bushes - 50 centimeters. Overcrowding contributes to the spread of fungal diseases.

    Improving Drought Resistance

    Each seedling is removed from the container, gently weakening the roots. Seedlings are planted as deep as possible, leaving only the upper leaves above the surface. The technique, which is a death sentence for many plants, for tomatoes is a real help to in many ways.

    It increases drought resistance, resistance to wind, stimulates the strengthening of the root system. Soil tamped around the seedlings with his hands and watered.

    The lunar calendar often comes to the aid of vegetable growers.

    Planting tomatoes in open ground after the last frost is considered a standard rule. biodynamics supporters tuned for space effects in agriculture and crop production, are grown in accordance with the lunar calendar, which shows favorable and adverse times for planting tomatoes.

    Requirements for the care in open ground

    In general, the culture has low water requirements, and waterlogging stimulates the development of diseases. After the fruit begins to form, water the tomatoes only when the soil dries out 2-3 centimeters below the surface. On hot days, when the leaves become sluggish, you may have to do it daily.

    Water the soil around the plant( the leaves and stems do not tolerate getting wet) in the morning, which will allow the excess moisture to evaporate during the day, but at the same time deliver to the roots the amount they need.

    After three or four weeks of growth, the beds are mulched with a thick layer of straw or dried leaves to preserve soil moisture and prevent infection by fungal spores and weed growth.

    Tomatoes - heat-loving culture. Temperatures of 25-30 contribute to better growth and rapid flowering. In open ground, tomatoes are fed with phosphate fertilizer every three weeks.

    Tomatoes grow thicker than their immune system can withstand. New shoots that grow from the main stems, which derive valuable energy from the developing fruit, need to be cut, helping to form an open and spreading plant form.

    An excellent way to protect a plant from insect pests , which weaken it and make it more susceptible to diseases - planting companion plants. As a sacrifice for white flies, basil, garlic, nasturtium and marigolds, planted next to them, repel aphid.
    Companion plants for the variety include basil Garlic Nasturtium Marigolds

    Seedlings of the Balcony Marvel

    You can save seeds from a ripe fruit for future seedlings, but “Balcony,

    ” can save seeds from a ripe fruit for future seedlings, but you can save seeds from a ripe fruit for future seedlings, but “the balconies, in the pattern, in the way for the first things and the ones in the first things to make things through to the seedlings that come to you, you can use to make sure to come to the seedlings in the world.”Is it possible to grow a plant identical to the original?

    It is easier to buy ready-made packaged seeds in a store and plant them indoors six to eight weeks before the last frost.

    How to choose seeds for seedlings

    On the sachet in small print, as a rule, it is indicated “deterministic”.This is an important aspect for understanding the type of growth. It means that the plant will grow to a genetically determined size and then stop( the size should be indicated on the package)

    Indeterminated varieties grow indefinitely until cold temperatures or other natural phenomena stop them.

    Proper soil preparation

    For seed, prepare any containers that hold the soil well and have drainage holes. A good option is plastic containers for strawberries or other berries.

    An example of a container for

    berries. They are rather deep, perforated, and have covers that will help keep the seeds moist. Convenient use of moistened peat( biodegradable) pots.

    Pre-disinfected in a weak manganese solution, the seeds( purchased from the store seeds have already been processed) are sown in a ready-made or self-prepared soil mixture :

    • 1/3 of the compost;
    • 1/3 vermiculite;
    • 1/3 peat moss.

    We plant seeds on seedlings

    “Balcony miracle” tomatoes are grown throughout the year. Considering planning, the best time for planting seeds to get fruit for the New Year holidays is mid-September. In the spring, fruiting will begin if you prepare the seedlings at the beginning of winter.

    In each container filled with organic soil, plant two seeds( for insurance), to a depth of about 1.5 cm( or three times as large as the seed size) and carefully watered.

    It is important that they remain wet before germination, but not damp, if they dry out, they will die. The containers are covered with a film( for the greenhouse effect) and placed in a warm place, which is maintained at a temperature of 21-27 ° C.

    The film creates the effect of an

    greenhouse. Seedlings take care of the seedlings

    after one or two weeks, after which they are moved to a warm, at least 18 ° C, and bright place. When four leaves appear on the seedlings, they are carefully transplanted into deeper containers.

    is placed at the bottom of a 3-centimeter layer of soil substrate, on which the root tip is installed and the pot is carefully filled with soil, covering most of the plant stem: the leaves should be slightly above the soil surface.

    Before transplanting in stationary containers or in open ground, when the seedlings are 15 cm high, pinch off new leaves, leaving no more than three sets.

    For optimal growth, seedlings need full lighting, from 12 to 16 hours of light per day. The lack of light leads to the stretching and thinning of the stems .In winter, fluorescent lamps work well as a source.

    Possible problems when growing the variety

    The dwarf hybrid is resistant to diseases, but in any case, it must be remembered that the causative agents of Alternariosis, late blight and Septoria infection develop in a raw environment.

    Watering is done about once every ten days with room temperature water that has been previously settled. Flowing water saturated with bleach has a detrimental effect on the development of culture.

    The variety is characterized by foliage folding at the top of the plant's during the day. But this should not cause concern, by the evening they, as a rule, straighten up.

    In order to increase the yield of tomatoes, the first fruits are removed at the initial stage, leaving to ripen in a dark place at a temperature of at least 13 ° C with a low humidity level( in the basement or garage).This measure stimulates the emergence of new fruits.

    Features of the grade

    The Balcony Miracle variety, developed by Russian breeders specifically for cultivation in compact conditions, on window sills, on balconies, and in open ground.

    Characteristic of

    The dwarf hybrid of the is ultra-fast ripening, with a period of fruit ripening after planting in 85-100 days of .Forms a compact bush up to 30-40 centimeters high. Small, round, intensely red-colored berries, weighing about 20-30 g and measuring 3 cm in diameter, are sown in a short time( usually 2-3 weeks).

    Description

    Suitable for small-sized pots, but the larger the capacity, the better the root system develops and, as a result, the fruiting and the larger the berries."Balcony miracle" - the quintessence of sweet-tart tomato flavor, great for salads and snacks, as well as for canning.

    Defined as an active, deterministic variety, this means that with careful care, a crop can produce fruit twice a year.

    The size of the pot affects the rapid growth of the variety

    To develop a full-fledged root system, tomatoes need a lot of space. The ideal container size( for deterministic varieties) is 45 cm in diameter. It holds enough soil, which holds water and nutrients well, the most important elements for plant health and good yield.

    The fruits of

    “Balcony Miracle” are suitable for growing in semi-shaded conditions, but it is better not to forget that all tomato varieties prefer light and heat, which directly affect fruiting.

    With proper care, each bush is able to bring up to two kilograms of crop .

    Is it true that this variety is exactly for growing on a balcony

    “Balcony miracle” can be grown on the balcony or indoors, and in the garden. None of the methods is a priority, although the size of the fruit depends on the location. In the open ground, they are formed larger in size than in the room.

    Growing tomatoes on the balcony is much easier than having to work in the garden

    Cultivating tomatoes indoors eliminates the limitations that arise when gardening outdoors. This means there is no anxiety in hard climate zones about landing times.

    However, most tomato species are tall or bulky in order to grow comfortably at home. That is why the balcony miracle is so popular among vegetable growers.
