Tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.), is one of the most important vegetables that supports food and nutritional security. One of the various forms that is offered is in cluster, also known as ToV, being one of the specialties of the tomato ball. The disadvantage is the visual quality (the homogeneous color) that determines the level of consumer acceptance and the foreign market, as well as the consumption time. Due to this, the effect of two spray techniques (mopping and touch) in postharvest on the ToV fruits grown in the greenhouse was evaluated. This to favor the homogeneity of color; using bioregulators: A) 2-cloroethyl phosphonic acid y B) K2O 20%. in three concentrations [A (T1= 7.2 ppm, T2= 12 ppm y T3= 120 ppm, T4= control H2O); B (T1= 66 ppm, T2= 550 ppm, T3= 715 ppm, T4= control H2O)] under a complete randomized design with three repetitions to two observations (initial - final) during seven days. The results were subjected to post hoc comparisons, for which the weight variable in both bioregulators did not show statistical effect; however, in the color variable, the spraying techniques showed statistical differences with respect to the control. Therefore, it is concluded that the use of bioregulators in post-harvest is a solution to the color homogeneity of the ToV tomato.
