Tomato "Hawaiian Pineapple"

Tomato "Hawaiian Pineapple".
A mid-late, tall (indeterminate) variety producing ribbed orange tomatoes weighing 500-700 grams.
These fleshy tomatoes will appeal to those who enjoy delicious, sweet tomatoes with an intense, fruity pineapple flavor.
Seeds are sown in March. For faster and more uniform germination, cover the sowing with glass or film.
The temperature of the substrate in which the seeds are sown should be no lower than +21+26°C, and the room temperature should not be lower than 23°C. After 2-4 leaves appear, the seedlings are transplanted.
The seedlings are planted in a greenhouse when there is no longer any danger of frost.
35 seeds are sufficient for an area of ​​8-10 m2.

* To prevent tomato seedlings from stretching.
It needs to be tempered. For those who do not have conditions for hardening seedlings, this method of obtaining non-stretched seedlings is recommended.
After the first pick during the formation of 4-5 true leaves in plants, cut off the stem with a sharp blade above the cotyledon leaves and plant the top carefully, without squeezing the stem, water well and shade (you can build a hut from a film, because the leaves evaporate moisture, and there is nothing to take it from the soil because there are no roots). If the plant is planted in the first days, it is not scary. The roots on the stalk will soon appear in the soil, the leaves will rise. In 5-6 days after the "operation", the huts can be removed, the seedlings can be put back on the windowsill. In this case, plant growth is delayed by 10-12 days.

* Under what conditions are tomato flowers better pollinated?
Tomato is a self-pollinating plant. Tomato pollen is heavy and poorly wind-borne, therefore it falls on the stigma of the pistil of the same flower 2-3 days earlier than the ovules ripen. This is very important to consider when obtaining hybrid seeds. To form seeds, stamens with unripe pollen are removed from the flower and pollinated with pollen taken from a flower of another variety. Fertilization of a flower occurs at an air temperature of +24 +32°C. A lower or higher temperature leads to impaired pollination. At high temperatures (more than +32°C), the pistil stretches above the stamens and pollination does not occur.
