Belongs to the nightshade family. Native to Central and South America. Plants grow up to 2m tall, covered with fine hairs. Leaves are deeply lobed, odd-pinnate. The inflorescence is a cyme with three to twenty bisexual flowers that are yellow in color. The fruit is a berry, or tomato. Bush or cordon varieties of tomatoes are grown, producing fruits in red, yellow, orange, pink, and even white colors.

Besides being very healthy, they also have their specific taste. Their use in culinary preparations is manifold. They contain vitamins C, E, A, potassium, iron, carotene, and large amounts of fiber. They support blood formation and benefit skin, hair, and nails. They strengthen the organism. Besides traditional garden cultivation, plants can also be grown in containers, for example on a terrace or balcony!

How to Grow Tomatoes

  • They require a sunny and sheltered location. Ideal temperature conditions for cultivation are between 21 and 24 °C. Growing tomatoes in a greenhouse or polytunnel is also a possible option, however, we note that at temperatures above 27 degrees Celsius, tomatoes do not grow. Higher temperatures even cause them to dry out. Generous watering is also necessary. We avoid watering the leaves, as mold could attack the plants. We regularly pinch out side shoots to promote fruit growth. For cordon tomatoes and tomatoes that grow to higher dimensions, it is essential to place support and tie them up so that the plants do not break.

  • We sow tomatoes at the earliest in mid-February, but better at the beginning of March into substrate for sowing and propagation. After 1-2 weeks, we must prick out the plants into seedling trays - the substrate is the same. After 3-4 weeks, we transplant the plants into pots at least 8×8cm in size with horticultural substrate. For growing tomatoes, low temperature and lighter watering are suitable. For plants in pots, a temperature up to 15°C is sufficient. We harden off plants very early - we ventilate or place them outside during the day. We plant out in polytunnels in April, then in open ground in May after the last frosts.

  • Plants are demanding on organic matter and nutrients, so it is necessary to additionally mix manure into the growing substrate. It is suitable to use granulated manure - we add 300-400 g per plant to the substrate.

    Tomatoes grown in beds require soil preparation before planting. On good and humus-rich soils, it is not necessary to apply manure or compost. On poor soils, we work in 2-4 kg per m2 of well-rotted compost or manure already in autumn.

  • We fertilize plants regularly. Application in the form of liquid fertilizer with Kristalon Start or Fruit and Flower fertilizers is suitable. We fertilize with Kristalon START mainly at the beginning of plant growth, as soon as plants start flowering, we can start using Kristalon FRUIT and FLOWER. We prepare doses according to the instructions on the product packaging.

  • The most common disease in tomatoes is tomato blight (potato blight). It is recognized by characteristic brown spots on leaves, stems, and fruits. It is necessary to act preventively against this disease. If we expect rainy weather, we treat plants with preparations such as Acrobat, Alliete, Ridomil, Kuprikol, etc.

    Blossom end rot is a plant nutrition disorder - calcium deficiency. It affects the fruits, which become deformed and a black spot appears at the tip of the fruit. We fertilize plants regularly. If the disorder appears, we treat plants with preparations for calcium nutrition, such as InCa preparation.

    Sucking pests such as aphids or spider mites attack tomatoes very often. It is suitable to use Agro NATURA Symfonie 3 in 1 preparation also against fungal diseases and sucking pests.

    For tomato blight, DITHANE preparation is suitable. For organic farming, Bioton and Bioan preparations are suitable.

  • Bush varieties of tomatoes are harvested approximately 8 weeks after planting. Cordon varieties are harvested from the 10th to 12th week. We always follow the appearance of the harvested fruit. Tomatoes should be red, firm, not overripe.
