Good afternoon, my reader. To increase the efficiency of the development of vegetable crops, the gardeners pay a lot of attention to the right organization of care. When growing tomatoes, watering plays an important role. To carry out it, instead of the traditional method, you can use the unusual, exhaustive time and strength technology.
It turns out that it is properly installed and filling with water moisture itself enters the soil as needed. It is not required to walk with watering, which is especially convenient in a greenhouse in a limited space.
Easy and accessible to each gardener, the watering method has a number of important advantages:
- Plastic bottles belong to the cheap type of container. Throughout the winter, you can collect the required number of tanks. This material is easily processed.
- It will not be necessary to acquire expensive irrigation systems.
- Water and nutrient solutions are saved in the process of watering, as the liquid comes directly to the root system.
- It is eliminated excessive moistening of the above-ground part, which serves as prevention of the development of various bacterial, fungal, viral infections.
It is possible to use plastic containers from 1.5 liters for mounting a simple watering system. The larger the packaging, the less often it will be necessary to fill it with water, which saves time.
Algorithm for preparing bottles:
- The container is thoroughly washed. If it is strongly contaminated, we use detergents, and then rinsed with clean water.
- In the lid with a sewn or thick sewing needle, the holes are made with a diameter of about 2 mm. To facilitate the work, the tip of the instrument is well heated on an open fire. Given that for easy sandy and sampling soil, it is enough to perform 2-3 holes. If the soil is heavy clay, then 4-5 holes will be required.
- It remains completely cut off the bottom, while the total length of the container is recommended to reduce about a third.
Prepared bottles are installed down. It is more convenient to carry out this operation immediately after planting tomato seedlings. If it did not work out immediately, you can carry out an operation for 14 days after disembarkation, while the ground near the plants has segged.
They put on a bottle near each custa of tomatoes so that the distance from the central stem to the peculiar watering can be at least 20 cm. Make a hole in the soil of 15 cm deep, trying not to damage the roots. Place the neck of the tank, withstanding the slope of 45 degrees. Surride in emptiness soil, which needs to be good, providing a bottle stability.
Attracts such a watering technique for simplicity. It is only necessary to simultaneously fill in the container a standing water.
After installation, plastic leeks can be used for tomtoral plants and when the feeding with liquid nutritional mixtures can be used.
In accordance with the instructions dissolve the necessary fertilizers in water and poured into the bottles. Considering the small diameter of the holes, if necessary, the prepared nutrient fluid is preloaded. This allows not to violate the process of moisture into the ground, since the holes will not be clogged. Such a feeding method attracts that the nutrient elements are spent economically, as they fall directly to the roots.
