Pink Paradise Tomatoes are tall plants that need a special garter during their cultivation. They are intended for cultivation in the greenhouse or in the greenhouse, as they are a hybrid and do not tolerate the usual natural conditions.
When grown in open ground, tomatoes may not show the stated characteristics.
Seeds of this variety are not harvested, since it is impossible to grow the same parental specimens from them. Bushes are well leafy and vigorous, can grow up to 2 m in height. You can grow a bush in 1 or 2 stalks. 
In general, these tomatoes are designed for salad cooking, but they can also be used for preservation.
Productivity and characteristics
The yield of tomatoes "Pink Paradise" is considered high - if you follow all the rules for the care correctly, you can get up to 4 kg of vegetables from just 1 square meter. m planted area. But if you grow a plant in the open field, the yield may be slightly reduced.
Tomatoes have a pink uniform color, they are flat-round, the density is average. Fleshy fruits have a thin film on the outside, but they are not easily damaged, and they lie for a long time (on average up to 3 weeks).
The average weight of one tomato is 200 g. All of them are about the same size, therefore the presentation is high. There is no green spot near the stalk.
On average, maturation occurs in 100 days. The inflorescences are simple, leaves are medium in size.Nests - at least 4 pieces. The fruits of 6-chamber, they do not crack. Taste tomatoes like many - sweet tomatoes. 
Advantages and disadvantages of the variety
The variety is resistant to many types of diseases: verticillous wilt, fusarium wilt, gray leaf spot, nematodes, cladosporia, tobacco mosaic virus. Despite this, it is recommended to carry out some preventive measures before and during planting.
Tomatoes keep their shape well, they are transported without noticeable damage and lie for a long time, keeping their original appearance. Even after 3 weeks after harvesting, tomatoes retain their glossy shine. 
The main disadvantage of the variety is that Pink Paradise is a hybrid, which means it must be grown in special conditions that are not typical for wildlife. In addition, as mentioned above, you can not multiply tomatoes naturally, you have to re-buy the seeds.
Another advantage is cold resistance. However, even though the plant can tolerate small drops in temperature, it will not survive the extreme cold. Among other things, the fruits remain tasty and of high quality.
Growing seedlings
Tomatoes of this variety are grown in greenhouses, greenhouses, or just under a film coating. This happens at the end of May, when the earth is completely warm.
Soil requirements
The soil in which the seeds of future tomatoes will be planted has its own requirements: it must be nutritious and light. It is better that the soil consists of a mixture of sod or garden land with humus.
Some gardeners are preparing the land in the spring, but already in the greenhouse. In this case, some of the land will be better replaced by more recent. 
Those who are engaged in seedling of tomatoes is not the first year, it is recommended to pre-process the soil "Fitosporina". In the future, it is necessary to monitor the soil moisture, water it in moderate portions, and it is better to use a spray bottle.
If you plant a tomato in a pot, then it is necessary to fertilize the soil in it in advance.
When to plant
The soil in which Pink Paradise tomatoes are planted should be well warmed. Often they are planted in early March, but only if there are no severe frosts, as it sometimes happens at the very beginning of spring.
Very often experienced gardeners use this method: sow seedlings in late February (and sometimes in the middle of the month). Dive into the territory where the fruits will ripen, it is possible from March 1.
Focus on the weather yourself: it is quite possible option when you can plant seedlings in early April.
Planting and caring for seedlings
Prepare small holes, each of which will be about 1.5 cm in depth. 
If you are planting is not in the greenhouse, on the fact of its absence, then in that case cover the wells with film material. With it, you can create the necessary greenhouse effect.
In the place where the landing is, should be warm. Indoors, the optimum temperature should be equal to 25 ° C. However, after the appearance of the first leaves, it is necessary to move the shoots to bright sunlight.
After a short period of time after the appearance of the first leaves, the plant is sipped in separate pots.After that, at the time noted above, you can start planting plants in a greenhouse or in a greenhouse you create yourself. 
When using the greenhouse method of cultivation, the tomato "Pink Paradise f1" will give a good harvest, as evidenced by the numerous reviews left by customers on the websites of stores and photos of bushes of successful seedlings attached to them.
For one season it is recommended to move up to 4 sessions of fertilizing with mineral fertilizers. In order to achieve an increase in the number of fruits, it is possible to carry out a pinching and form one shoot from a bush.
Planting tomatoes in open ground
"Pink Paradise" is a hybrid variety of plants, which means it is undesirable to grow it in open ground. This approach can easily lead to disastrous consequences: tomatoes may not show the properties specified in the characteristics of the plant.
Those who still decided to grow outside the greenhouse, it is recommended to carefully care for the plant. We must try to create conditions as close as possible to the greenhouse.
If possible, cover the seedlings with film material that will create a greenhouse effect in the open field.In this case, you need to pay attention to the fact that the shoots each time will rise higher and the film (or other material) will need to be raised as high. 
In the open ground in July, treat the soil with systemic fungicide from late blight. Wait for rainy weather for this procedure. After 2 weeks, repeat the process again.
If the summer is too rainy and precipitation will fall very often, treat with a fungicide every 2 weeks. 14 days before harvesting, stop this process.
Pink Paradise Grade Care
With proper care, "Pink Paradise" will delight you with large shoots with numerous fruits, as the plant has unlimited growth. To ensure better pollination, move the stems and make them touch each other periodically.
Watering
Remember that watering should be moderate. Lack of water will have a bad effect on growth, but even worse, tomatoes will react to excessive spraying. In this regard, the yield level may decrease.
In the first month, the bushes will practically not need to be watered, since the ground will be sufficiently wet after winter and thawed snow. After planting, they must be watered immediately on the first day.
Further, this should not be done in the near future - the roots of the plant go deep into the ground, from where they can take water. 
Top dressing
The first fertilizer to which the plant must succumb is nitrogenous. And during the period of fruit formation it should be replaced with potash-phosphoric.
Succinic acid can be used as a growth promoter. Many gardeners recommend this particular drug among a number of others.
Well as a top dressing suitable drug "Mortar". When operating carefully read the instructions for use. You can apply this concentration: a small bag of the drug on 5 buckets of water during one of the irrigations. 
If you use "Fitosporin", then take 1 g of the drug on the whole bucket. As the potash fertilizer may be suitable extract from the ash.
Masking and forming a bush
During the period of fruit ripening, the bushes become large and rapidly gaining weight.In order to keep the bush strong, and most importantly - healthy, you need to tie it up. Therefore, after the plant will be in its permanent habitat, it will need to be tied to a long and strong support.
The formation of a bush of tomatoes occurs mainly in two stalks. After the growing point is formed, it is possible to carry out a pasynkovanie. Leave the stepson and continue to increase the harvest.
Harvesting
Tomatoes of this variety are classified as medium early in term of ripening of the crop. You can collect after 65 or 70 days after you planted a seedling.
With all the necessary conditions for growing bushes, you can get an average of 3 kg of tomatoes from 1 square meter. m. This value can reach up to 4 kg. The fruits will have a pronounced pink color, which is typical for all pink tomatoes.
If during the assembly you find the larvae of slugs or the larvae of any beetles, it is better to remove them yourself manually, and process the fruits themselves with an aqueous solution of ammonia.
The advantages of the Pink Paradise tomato variety are evident from its characteristics and description. Follow the simple recommendations of the gardeners, and in the next garden season you will be able to see good results.
