    Cucumbers and tomatoes - as if from a garden
    To keep cucumbers and tomatoes fresh longer, I have my own tricks.
    I store tomatoes in boxes - I place them in cells in one layer with the stalks up. Young tomatoes do not spoil like this for about 2 months. It is only important that initially the fruits are strong, without the slightest damage to the skin.

    After collecting cucumbers, I first put them in the shadow for a while and cover them with a cloth. In order for the Zelentsy to lie in the refrigerator for at least two weeks, I do so. At the bottom of the tank I pour a little table vinegar, set the grate on top, and put cucumbers on it, but so that they do not touch the liquid. Cover with a lid, put it in the fridge.

    At one time, I also looked for good seeds of cucumbers, tried new ones every year. I will say right away: growing cucumbers from my seeds is a dead end.
    You sow your favorite finger. A bee flew in from Phoenix. What sort of seed will be in a cucumber? Then you write: barren. Why admire him? There should be a cucumber with a flower, not a flower without a cucumber. Trust the professionals. So, my rating of cucumbers for today:

    • Dutch: Hermann, Meringue, Pasalimo, Crispina, Artist, etc.
    • Russian (on packing): Courage, Murashka.
    • Other: Power, Labyrinth.

    Previously, I tried to collect only seeds of pumpkin, tomato and pepper. And this year were particularly successful varieties of beets and carrots, but in the spring did not record their names. How to get the seeds of these roots?

      To get quality seeds of beets and carrots, immediately after harvesting I select the largest root crops without cracks and other flaws. I leave long hemp stems (up to 15 cm). I put it in wooden boxes, plentifully pour with wet river sand, so that the vegetables do not touch each other. I keep in the cellar.
      In February, right in the boxes I put in the house to make green leaves. As necessary, I moisten the sand.

      In the spring, when the earth warms up to + 10 ... + 15 degrees, I dig a bed on the bayonet of a shovel. At a distance of 20 cm from each other, I form holes in size slightly larger than the root crop. In each bag of handful of humus or compost, pour water to the very top and wait until it is completely absorbed. I add some more water, I transfer root crops from boxes to the land slurry, fill the soil with sprouts, sprinkle with my palms.

      In the future, if necessary, I loosen the garden, weed and water. Seeds do not ripen at the same time, that's why I collect them from carrots when the edges of umbrellas will grow brown and curl inwards, and beets will cause the seminal glomeruli to turn brown.

    In my opinion, the seeds grown by their own hands are of higher quality. They are obtained from those plants that were formed in local conditions, and therefore the seeds will be adapted to the climate of a particular locality. Vegetables from them will grow healthier!
    At the end of summer, the seeds of onion-chernushka ripen - they are in inflorescences-umbrellas. It is necessary to collect when the first seed boxes open on an umbrella. Arrows should be cut, bundled and hung for final ripening under a canopy. While the inflorescences dry, they need to put on gauze covers and periodically shake the drying heads. Then it will be enough to pour the seeds from these caps.

    Collected seeds should be filled with water - everything that has surfaced can be safely thrown away. Drowned seeds must be dried - they will become the seed for next year. It is convenient to store them until spring in paper bags or fabric bags in a dry place.
