Every gardener strives to produce a bountiful crop of tasty and colorful tomatoes on their plot. To achieve this goal, it is necessary to pay special attention to plant care and apply fertilizers that favor their growth and maturation.

Experienced gardeners recommend using a boric acid-based solution. To prepare this solution, simply dissolve 5 grams of this product in 10 liters of water. This solution should be sprayed after the plants begin to flower, and it is advisable to repeat the procedure several times.

Another way to improve the growth of tomatoes is to use rye crackers in garden flower beds. This is expected to make the fruits bigger. When planting seedlings in the ground, you can add to the hole some crushed rye crackers mixed with wood ash.

There is also a pharmaceutical product that helps speed up the ripening process of tomatoes: iodine. To do this, dissolve iodine (30 drops) in 10 liters of water and spray the plants with the resulting solution.
