The correct fertilizing tomatoes<\/strong> it is essential for growing healthy and lush plants and having a bountiful harvest. In organic, unlike traditional agriculture that uses chemical fertilizers, only organic fertilizers can be used.<\/span> For this, a lot of attention must be paid to soil preparation<\/u> and basic fertilization. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
On fertile ground, with a good supply of organic matter<\/u>, tomato plants are grown that are unlikely to get sick, which instead happens frequently on over-exploited and tired soils. With fertilization it is also important to integrate any deficiencies in nutritional elements.
In this article we therefore see the different possibilities we have for fertilize tomatoes<\/strong> in a biological way and we also reveal some little tricks.<\/p>\nThe nutritional needs of the tomato<\/span><\/h2>\n
The tomato is a very demanding crop in nutritional terms and this for several reasons, namely: it has a long cultivation cycle, a wide and branched root system, it produces many fruits and a lot of vegetation. In terms of macro elements, the presence of nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P) and potassium (K)<\/u>.
Nitrogen is used for vegetative growth, especially in the early stages. The lack of this element causes yellowing of the leaves, stunted growth and premature senescence.
Phosphorus, on the other hand, is essential to stimulate abundant flowering and fruit setting.
Finally, potassium helps regulate photosynthesis and, above all, correct fruit ripening.
Other macro and microelements useful for tomato plants are: calcium, magnesium, iron, manganese, boron, zinc, molybdenum.
The supply of stable humus, or organic substance, must therefore be very rich in the soil, let’s see how to improve it with fertilization.<\/p>
