How to pinch vegetables (tomatoes, cucumbers, zucchini)

Paging tomato, cucumbers, zucchini and other vegetables - how to do it right?

Paging (tailoring, topping, pinzing) is the removal of the top of a young escape. Site can of course pull your fingers, but it's better to use scissors. When the point is removed, the plant will immediately begin to form new, sometimes one, but usually two or more. The main goal of this very important manipulation is an increase and Improving the crop.

And it is necessary to do it in a timely manner. The tops of the escape need to be quenched necessarily above the sheet, which was formed after, as we express the aging of the last flower from those that are needed for crop maturation. Each plant has its own time of vegetation, but there is one rule: the sorting should be made no later than the weeks for three from the planned period of the last mass collection of fruits.

How to make cucumber segments

The need to pinch the cucumbers to lay a feature on the main plant stem predominantly inflorescences of the male floor (they are more often called emptyweight).

Female inflorescences Grow mainly on lateral shoots, and you can achieve their appearance only through the chief stem. Today the varieties are already displayed, the main stem of which was covered with female flowers. And then there is a problem with male. And provoke their appearance, too, the chipping stem sequel. In addition, the tailing significantly improves yields.

If for example a plant is hybrid or variety, then you need to remove the tops above the sixth sheet, and it will be necessary to leave only 3 escapes, yet the rest needs to be cut. On the usual grade you need 1 stem, and weak shoots remove at all.

Modern varieties of cucumbers with short side shoots do not need to be segged.
Popping melon is carried out in the same way as the cucumbers.

Paging of tomatoes (tomatoes)

The sepitude of tall tomatoes is best done 40 days before the date of the expected harvest collection, when all major brushes are formed.

Leave you need 2 sheets on the last compliance. So without losses, all the fruits are formed, which started by this time. Otherwise, the plant will reach, to tie new fruits, and those formed earlier will seem later, 6 will be smaller and not so delicious.
Similarly, pinching eggplant and pepper.

How to pinch a zucchin

Kabachkov (like Zucchini) climb the top over 4-5 sheet. The main stem from our vaccine zucchini is better to delete at the beginning of the bootonization, when it reaches the length of more than 1 meter (on average 1.3), it is desirable to leave 3 lateral escapes of 65-70 centimeters with 1 fruit on each.
It is very similar to the complace procedure and at Pykv.

But the bush and self-polluted varieties in pinching is not necessary. But when fruiting begins, 1-3 sheets in the middle of the bush better remove: This prevents the development of rot.

How to pinch watermelons

When 2-3 fetus are tied and reach 5-7 centimeters in diameter, you can begin to pinch the tops of lateral shoots.

Pipping pumpkin

The number of pumpkins on the plenti should not be more than 3 pieces, even better 2x, it allows you to largely accelerate, so rejoicing us ripening as well as improve the quality of fruits (which is importantly important). When they finally started and began to fall, you can pinch the main stem and long side shoots (they are notplus). And you can all shoots would be well oriented in one direction, leaving only 1 fetus. In this case, there is better interstitial in the plants.

Removing the tops of potato shoots before the start of the bootonization (tip 2-3 cm) increases the tuber formation. The resulting fruits during the landing in the next year will give a "rejuvenated" and more healthy harvest.

Important:

If 80% do not remove the male shoots (they do not bloom) the cucumbers will be pattering. But do not blame - they give the fruit nutrients.
