Do potted tomatoes need to be picked

According to the actual situation, potted tomatoes need to be pinched or not. Let's take a look at the details below

You don't have to pick the heart of a tomato with a self sealing top

Some relatively short tomato varieties can also adopt the method of wiping buds instead of picking the heart, so as to remove all leaf buds below the second inflorescence of tomato and retain only 1-2 main branches

For unlimited growth tomatoes, it is necessary to pick the heart. Generally, after planting, after the first and second inflorescences of tomatoes bloom successively, pick the heart at the place where two leaves are on the flower. After picking the heart, strong lateral branches can grow near the lower internode of the first inflorescence, keep 2-3 branches and remove all the remaining lateral branches. In the future, make adjustments according to the specific growth trend and continuously pull the branches upward

Under the appropriate temperature, if the management is proper and the water and fertilizer are sufficient, continuous coring measures can be taken to improve the fruit yield, and this can also make the fruit large and the plant short. The specific methods are as follows:

When two sequential flowers appear on the main stem and bloom, keep two leaves for the first heart picking to promote the growth of lateral branches. The second pinching is carried out when the length of the lateral branches grows to 4 to 10 cm. After pinching, the lateral branches under the first inflorescence are selected as the second batch of main branches< span>
