Pricking out is a key agrotechnical practice, the quality of which directly determines root system development, seedling viability, and the future yield of vegetable and floral crops. Properly performing this procedure allows for the efficient use of the usable area of hotbeds and greenhouses, providing plants with the necessary conditions for growth. Combined with the skilled selection of nutrient substrates and the maintenance of an optimal microclimate, pricking out becomes the foundation for obtaining strong, hardened transplants that are resistant to adverse environmental factors.
This collection gathers materials covering the full cycle of work with transplants: from the preparation of soil mixtures and the agrochemical analysis of soil to the intricacies of sowing and modern technologies for cultivation in protected ground. Readers will find professional recommendations here on the care of early cabbage, tomatoes, eggplants, and floral crops. The articles contain instructions on temperature regimes, sowing rates, methods for calculating fertilizer application, and descriptions of special techniques, such as double pricking out and grafting of vegetable crops. The information presented will help optimize production processes and achieve high results when producing transplants in various types of greenhouses and hotbeds.
