Density - 7 plants per 1 square meter. The best predecessors of tomato are greens, carrots, zucchini and cucumbers. The fairy tale prefers light fertile soils with a high degree of aeration. It is unpretentious in leaving. Watering is carried out as needed, taking into account atmospheric precipitation. Mineral dressings can be used as fertilizers. A friendly harvest responds to organic matter (mullein, bird droppings and wood ash). Loosening of the soil after watering and weeding is also necessary. Despite its low growth, during the fruiting period, the plant must be tied to a support, otherwise the pouring fruit brushes can bend the stem to the ground.
