The industrial tomato is a crop with high production potential. To obtain abundant yields it is necessary to set up vigorous and balanced plants without excessive vegetative (luxuriance). For this it is very important in the post-transplant phase to "start" the seedlings at best ensuring an optimal rooting.
The following stages of transplanting are very delicate and the tomato needs a specific and balanced nutrition in order to stimulate rooting and, at the same time, create the conditions for an ideal development of the aerial part of the plant.
The technical line for post-transplant
An expanded root system that supports the plant in the production phases is the main goal of the fertilization in the post-transplant stage.
With the background fertilization, some of the macronutrients necessary for the development of the plant are provided, in particular phosphorus and potassium.
After the stress of transplanting, we proceed with phosphorus and calcium-based fertigations that stimulate rooting and strengthen the plant (greater resistance to biotic and abiotic stresses), in combination with organic nitrogen that improves nutrient absorption.
Specifically, we recommend the following products:
STAGE OF TRANSPLANT:
- Cereaphos, at a dosage of 200-250 kg/ha with localized application to the soil. Or Universal Up, with a dosage of 200-300 kg/ha with localized application to the soil. These two transplanting products promote rooting and a vigorous start, thanks to the high content of highly soluble phosphorus and humic acids.
TRANSPLANT STRESS OVERCOME:
- Leaf P-Ca, which contains phosphorus and calcium of high concentration quality that promote the rooting and development of balanced and compact plants, with a dosage of 10 l/ ha in fertigation;
- SuprEmo, rich in amino acids, tryptophan and organic iron to stimulate the optimal development of the plant, with a dosage of 20 l/ ha in fertigation;
