class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you don&#8217;t have a garden to grow your tomatoes in, no worries!&nbsp;They will also find their place on a balcony, comfortably installed in large pots.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>How to plant tomatoes in a pot step by step.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>To plant tomatoes in a pot, you must first choose a pot with a diameter of 30-40 cm.&nbsp;Additionally, for each plant you will need a pot.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>When you start sowing, you should bury the seeds shallowly in a bed of soft soil.&nbsp;Wait for the germination and transplanting periods when each plant reaches a height of 10-15 cm.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>When starting with the nursery plant, at the time of purchase, choose the strongest tomato plants.&nbsp;You need to plant the seedling, which consists of two parts of soil and one part of sand.&nbsp;Even if the plants once grew vigorously, there is no choice but to repot.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>After planting your tomatoes, you need to make sure they get enough light.&nbsp;For its positioning it is necessary to place the pot in direct sunlight and obtain it for at least 12 hours a day.&nbsp;In winter you may need additional lighting.&nbsp;Lighting lamps should be installed at a distance of 30 cm from plants.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>For good plant development and strong growth of your tomatoes, the temperature during the day should be at least 22-26 degrees.&nbsp;At night it can be cooler, 15-16 degrees.&nbsp;In winter, cold air can negatively affect the plant, in this case it is advisable to remove the pots from drafts.&nbsp;Favorable humidity is 60-65%.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Watering<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Regular to keep the substrate always fresh, never soggy or dried out.&nbsp;Avoid wetting the foliage, water at the base of the tomato and soak the substrate well each time you water.&nbsp;In summer when the weather is very nice and hot, plan to water daily or every two days.&nbsp;No vacation !<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Use a water reserve tank?&nbsp;I do not recommend it, because stagnant humidity risks rotting the roots, causing the tomato to die back.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Add fertilizer<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The tomato is a greedy plant and, despite your efforts to create the best possible substrate, it will need a helping hand.&nbsp;Also, when watering, do not hesitate to add a little fertilizer to your tomatoes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The important thing is not the quantity, but the frequency (every 15 days for example).&nbsp;You need to give the plant time to absorb what you give it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>The interview<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Seeds and plants recommend very regular watering: in pots, the soil dries quickly.&nbsp;Without being soggy, it must always be wet.&nbsp;A tip: mulch the surface of the pot to maintain freshness.&nbsp;You can also provide a saucer to place under the pot, so that your plant always has a reserve of water.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Do not hesitate to amend your planting regularly: frequency trumps quantity.&nbsp;It is recommended to add a little fertilizer every 15 days.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As the plant grows, it will be necessary to provide solid staking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Finally, you can cut the \u201cgreedy\u201d ones, these secondary branches which consume part of the plant\u2019s resources.&nbsp;If the question divides gardeners, it is because the operation is a balancing act: it will be necessary to leave enough leaves for the good health of the plant.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Harvesting and conservation<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Once the fruit is nicely colored and the flesh is soft, it&#8217;s time to harvest!&nbsp;Depending on the planting date, region and variety, the harvest extends from June until October.&nbsp;The ideal is to eat the tomato quickly and not put it in the refrigerator.&nbsp;At room temperature, it can only be kept for a few days.&nbsp;In the refrigerator, it loses a little of its flavor but will keep for around ten days.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If you don&#8217;t have a garden to grow your
