Description of the tomato variety Senor tomato and its yield

Description of the tomato variety Senor tomato

The tomato variety Senor tomato was developed relatively recently. According to its structure, it belongs to the indeterminate (that is, tall) type. The height of the main stem reaches 3 meters, which is why it is often called the “liana tomato.” In addition to the main shoot, the plant forms 2-3 lateral shoots. However, they do not reach such a significant height. The stems are covered with a small number of medium-sized leaves with characteristic pinnateness.

Appearance of tomato Signor Tomato

Each shoot during the season forms from 4 to 7 branched complex racemes with numerous ovaries.

The variety belongs to the mid-season category. The fruits ripen throughout the summer and vary in weight and size. The weight of tomatoes from the first ovary reaches 200 g. The latest fruits weigh on average 80 g.

The fruit is heart-shaped (slightly elongated and tapering towards the apex). In the area of ​​the stalk it is ribbed, the rest of the surface is flat and smooth. A ripe tomato has a bright red color. The skin of the fruit is thin and durable, the flesh is fleshy.

Taste characteristics

The pulp of the Senor tomato has a delicate, uniform consistency. It tastes sweet with a slight pleasant sourness, not watery.

Tomatoes of this variety have good keeping quality, are easy to transport and retain their taste and aroma for a long time. In summer, they can be eaten fresh and added to vegetable salads.

From large fruits you can prepare for the winter:

• lecho;
• sauces;
• puree;
• juice;
• ketchups.

Small fruits can be pickled or pickled for the winter. They have a strong skin and do not burst when processed with hot brine.

Gardeners' opinion

Good afternoon I advise tomato lovers to try the Senor tomato variety. It can be safely grown in open ground in the southern regions of Russia. The tomato is not whimsical, loves feeding, requires tying and pinching. The productivity is very high. Over the summer I collect up to 23 kilograms of berries from a bush. I recommend!

Ekaterina Semenova, 46 years old.

Good day! I recently tried the Senor tomato variety. Only a high greenhouse is suitable for growing. The growth of the bushes reached three meters. Easy to care for. The berries are very juicy and sweet. I get 20 kilograms of tomatoes per bush.

Nadezhda Babkina, 56 years old.

Those who planted the Senor Tomato tomato have different opinions about the merits of the variety. Some gardeners speak negatively about the seeds and note their low germination rate. But many people like the consumer qualities of these tomatoes.

Advantages and disadvantages of Senor Tomato tomatoes

Most gardeners highly appreciate the quality of this variety. Among its advantages are:

• High yield. With proper care, it can be much higher than that of other varieties.
• Good transportability and shelf life. The collected fruits last a long time, do not wrinkle and do not deteriorate during storage.
• If necessary, you can collect unripe fruits and let them “sit” until ripe.
• The harvest does not spoil on the bushes.
• Carpal growth of fruits - they are easy to remove when harvesting.
• Increased resistance to common diseases and pests (late blight, etc.).

Tomato garter Senior tomato
Not all amateur gardeners are suitable for a variety with these characteristics. According to the descriptions, it also has some disadvantages:

• In order for the fruits to turn out large, additional care is needed. Plants need to be intensively fed with fertilizers and brushes need to be normalized.
• Maturation does not occur simultaneously. One bunch may contain fruits of varying degrees of ripeness. This is inconvenient when grown on an industrial scale.
• Due to the high growth of the shoot, the plant needs careful staking.
• The variety can only be grown in greenhouses. It is not suitable for open ground. This is due to the climatic characteristics of the Russian Federation (in most regions, a good harvest can only be achieved in greenhouses).

In addition, the plant requires regular watering. If the soil in the greenhouse dries out, the skin of the tomatoes bursts.

Advice on agricultural technology

The plant shows the best results with the seedling planting method. Strong seedlings are obtained under the following conditions:

• sowing seeds to a depth of 1.5-2 cm;
• using universal soil for tomatoes;
• immediately after emergence, transplant into separate peat pots;
• regular watering;
• maintaining the temperature in the room with seedlings at least 22 degrees;
• the first shoots need to be provided with good lighting;
• make a pick when the first leaves appear;
• hardening 7-10 days before planting.

IMPORTANT! Tomato shows the best yield when forming a bush with one stem.

It is recommended to plant seedlings 2 months after sowing the seeds. A tall plant needs space, 1 square meter. It is recommended to place no more than four tomatoes per meter of land. Mandatory care actions include:

• watering as needed;
• regular loosening of the soil;
• weeding;
• periodic removal of side shoots;
• tying to the trellis with synthetic materials and installing supports;
• fertilizing the soil at least 4 times per season.

Productivity

The first harvest of tomatoes can be obtained 4 months from the planting date.

With proper care, each bush forms 4-7 large brushes. Each has 25-30 ovaries. Throughout the season, the plant produces from 15 to 25 kg of ripe, high-quality fruits.

Tomato yield Signor Tomato

To increase the weight of tomatoes, experts recommend rationing the brushes. You can also remove some of the early fruits slightly unripe and let them sit in boxes. This will allow the later fruits to grow larger.

Characteristic

The vegetable itself has a regular round shape, and the variety also has many distinctive features:

• Its germination rate is very high, almost 100%. More precisely - 96%. The fruits are small in size. They come in scarlet and light colors.
• If we talk about the taste of these tomatoes, they are sweet, pleasantly slightly sour, and meaty in appearance.
• This tomato variety is an early ripening variety. Harvesting can take a maximum of 4 months after the plant is planted in the ground.
• They can be planted both in a greenhouse and in open ground.
• If we talk about the yield of the variety, then “Senior Tomato” is usually high. From 17 to 25 kg of vegetables are collected from a bush, i.e. 20-30 pieces from large and complex clusters.
• Tomato bushes of liana type. They can reach a height of up to 3 meters. Can only be grown in a greenhouse. If the fruits on each shoot ripen unevenly, this is normal.
• These tomatoes ripen well and retain their taste for 1.5-2 months.

• Tomatoes are grown through pickled seedlings. In the phase of one there is a maximum of two true leaves.
• Seedlings need to be planted when they reach the age of about 3 months. You need to place 3-4 pieces per square meter of land.
• The variety is very productive. And the above good results are possible with sufficient nutrition and, very preferably, with the use of fertilizers.
• It is recommended to grow tomatoes on a trellis. In horticulture, it is a structure that supports plants. Often it has a lattice appearance.
• A prerequisite is the removal of stepchildren, as gardeners call side shoots

Features of planting and care

For growing Senor tomatoes, loose loamy soil, well heated by the sun, is suitable. In damp lowlands with close proximity to groundwater, it will not be possible to achieve a good harvest.

It is best to sow seeds in March. The soil must first be disinfected (calcined in the oven or spilled with a hot solution of potassium permanganate). The seeds are soaked for half an hour in a pale pink solution of manganese, then dried on a napkin.

Planting by seeds

Seed material is scattered onto moist soil. A layer of dry sand about 5 mm thick is poured on top. The soil temperature should be about 25 degrees. When each sprout forms 2-3 leaves, the young plants are picked and transferred to pots or boxes.

You need to grow seedlings at a soil temperature of about 16 degrees, watering them with warm water or a weak solution of potassium permanganate.

Plants can be planted in the ground in May - early June. The planting density should be 3-4 plants per 1 square meter. m. When the height of the bush reaches 20 cm, it is tied to the trellis.

Fertilizers are applied several times during the season:

1. 6-7 days after planting in the ground, tomatoes are fed with nitroammophos. Dilute 1 tbsp in 10 liters of water. l. substances. 500 ml of solution is poured under each bush.
2. After gartering, phosphorus-potassium fertilizers are applied (according to the instructions on the package).
3. Repeated feeding is carried out after 2 weeks.

Planting in the ground
To get a good harvest, it is recommended to plant bushes, forming 1-2 powerful shoots.

Pests and diseases

The Senior tomato variety is resistant to many diseases of greenhouse tomatoes: fusarium, alternaria, late blight. Infection with late blight is possible only with poor heating of the greenhouse and sudden temperature changes. Even in this case, the damage is minor. If the air in the greenhouse is too hot and dry, the fruits are affected by blossom end rot. For prevention, it is necessary to maintain normal temperature and humidity, and also remove leaves from the bottom of the bush.

Diseases and pests

The most common plant pests:

• Whitefly is an insect whose larvae leave a black coating on the leaves.
• Spider mite - settles on the underside of the leaf and forms a thin web.

Prevention includes weed control and regular watering. Affected shoots are removed and burned, and the plant is treated with insecticides.

Tomatoes "Orange giant"

Tomato variety "Orange Giant"

The medium-sized tomato “Orange Giant” is not only productive, not only early ripening, but also extremely healthy. Its fruits contain a large amount of carotene, which is actually confirmed by the orange color of its fruits. This variety is suitable for growing in greenhouses and temporary light-transmitting shelters. I hope our review helped you with choosing tomato seeds. Of course, you shouldn’t buy seeds from random sellers; I think it’s unnecessary to explain the reason, because everyone has been burned more than once. You buy one thing, and another sprouts, and it’s good if it sprouts at all! Therefore, you need to choose only a trusted seller, for example: this one.

By clicking on this link you can read other articles that will be useful to gardeners. We wish all our readers good health and excellent harvests.

History of the variety's creation

Work on developing this variety was carried out by Russian breeders from the All-Russian Research Institute of Vegetable Growing at the end of the last century. The leader of the group of scientists was N. S. Gorshkova.

A new variety was tested for several years. And only then the Dachnik tomato was entered into the Russian State Register in 1999. This tomato is called Summer Resident. The originator of the variety was Agro, but currently the seeds of this tomato are produced by many other well-known Russian companies involved in the production and sale of vegetable seeds.

However, sometimes confusion arises - there is also a tomato hybrid on sale with the same name, and there are also other seeds of this vegetable crop, the name of which also contains the word summer resident - Ural summer resident, Summer resident of Kuban and some other varieties.

The Dachnik tomato variety is recommended for cultivation in the North Caucasus region, however, according to reviews from vegetable growers, these tomatoes grow well and bear fruit in garden beds in the Central regions of Russia, as well as in many regions of the Urals and Siberia.

Features of cultivation

The shape of the tomatoes resembles heart-shaped tomatoes. There is pronounced ribbing near the stalk, but the rest of the surface is even and smooth. The fruit is slightly elongated in length, sharply narrowed towards the apex. The color at biological ripeness is bright red.

Tomato seeds are very diverse. This vegetable is very popular in the world. Its demand encourages breeders to develop new and improved varieties. Seeds of the Signor tomato variety are in great demand on the modern market.

This variety, like many others, is grown mainly from seedlings. To do this, it is necessary to disinfect the seeds in a weak solution of potassium permanganate and plant them in separate containers. The containers are left in a warm place and wait for the first shoots, which appear after 5-6 days. When 1-2 true leaves appear on the seedlings, the seedlings need to be planted in separate pots.

The soil in them must be regularly watered and loosened. You can also use fertilizer to make the seedlings strong and grow faster. Be sure to harden off the seedlings step by step. To do this, she is taken out into the open air, gradually increasing the time she spends on the street and bringing it up to a day.

Important to remember! Tomatoes are transplanted into open ground when the threat of night frosts has passed. Otherwise, the plants will die.

Recommendations for landing

Tomatoes are simply a godsend - a classic taste, with a pleasant texture and a characteristic tomato smell.

To get a decent harvest, you must adhere to special rules when planting:

• The planting density is 3-4 trunks per 1m2.
• When planting stepsons, leave 2-3 stems and in the future make sure that no more stepsons develop.
• When 6-7 clusters have formed, then the top needs to be pinched.
• Being quite tall, he needs to be tied up.

Tomato Jack Pot truly lives up to its name. It is super productive, super early. Suitable not only for cultivation by professionals, but also by beginners.

Plant Jack Pot, and you will definitely be guaranteed a harvest.

Composition, active substance and release form

“Signor Tomato” is an organomineral fertilizer that contains a large number of chemicals:

Nitrogen, potassium and phosphorus in a ratio of 1:4:2. This ratio is ideal for tomatoes, eggplants and peppers, since vegetables from the nightshade family are quite demanding of these elements in the soil. The use of organic matter "Signor Tomato" does not allow the plant to grow more than necessary, to the detriment of flowering, and also minimizes the risk of unnecessary stretching of seedlings. Additionally, these substances increase resistance to various stresses, ensure the formation of buds, and subsequently, timely growth and ripening of fruits. Potassium saturates fruits, increasing their value.

Did you know? The first classification of fertilizers was carried out by the agronomist, scientist and landowner Columella (1st century AD). In his treatise, he combined the centuries-old experience of farmers. All fertilizers were divided into 5 main groups: manure, mineral and green fertilizer, composts and “soil”.

Humic acids. They have a positive effect on the soil, enhancing its microbiological and enzymatic activity. All this increases plant resistance to various diseases and improves the absorption of nutrients by the roots. As a result, they develop intensively and produce a fairly high yield.

Bacteria of the genus Azotobacter. They have invaluable benefits for restoring microbiological processes in the soil and increasing the availability of nutrients. These bacteria release auxin-like substances into the soil, which promote stronger root growth and also increase resistance to cold and rot. In addition, they have the ability to absorb nitrogen from the air and convert it into a form available to plants.

Preparations that will benefit other plants in your garden: Biohumus, Boric acid, “Vympel”, “Stimul”, “Iskra Zolotaya”, “Inta-vir”, “Fundazol”, “Fufafon”, “Ground”, “ Bud”, “Aktellik”, “Karbofos”, “Konfidor”, “Commander”, “Aktara”, “Bi-58”. This ratio of chemical elements in fertilizers is suitable not only for nightshade crops, but also for fruit trees and shrubs. As a result of using such a fertilizer for seedlings of peppers and tomatoes, you can completely eliminate saturated nitrogen impurities, as well as soil contamination with nitrates.

“Signor Tomato” is produced in powder form and packaged in 1 liter plastic buckets.

How, what and when to feed tomatoes

If you have properly prepared the bed for tomatoes in the fall and added the necessary nutrients to the planting hole in the spring, during the remaining season it is enough to feed the growing and ripening tomatoes twice:

• 3 weeks after planting the seedlings (for 10 liters of water - 25 g of nitrogen, 40 g of phosphorus and 15 g of potassium fertilizers; 0.6-0.7 liters of solution are consumed per plant);
• when the plants fade and they begin to produce mass fruits (for 10 liters of water - 25 g of nitrogen, 40 g of phosphorus and 15 g of potassium fertilizers; 1.4-1.5 liters of solution are consumed per plant).

Of course, on poor soils, under changing weather conditions or the need to enhance the growth and fruiting of tomatoes, it is possible to make adjustments to this minimal scheme by adding certain substances for root and foliar feeding of tomatoes, as well as using folk remedies if desired (yeast, nettle, egg shell, etc.).

I always sowed high ones in March, low ones - at the end of March and early April, in May from 15-20 I planted seedlings in the ground under a covering. There is no greenhouse. This year I will try to sow some of it at the end of February. And who, how and when, plants in the ground if there is no greenhouse? I read in NH about high tunnels for tall tomatoes - I want to try it this year. The point is that the arches are higher, and they can be raised gradually, probably, and the covering can be done first in two layers, then in one. As an option if without a greenhouse.

Olya, why do you need tomatoes in February? No one even sows for themselves in February; they will outgrow them, especially in an apartment. Your weather is about the same as ours, do they plant in the ground after June 5th? Where are you going to take them in April? In April we have a strong minus, no covering can save us. In my opinion, there is no need to waste energy. Sow as usual, they will grow and sell normally.

Girls! Someone wrote on the farmer that he always plants very good, pink tomatoes, low and large. And he takes seeds from his own. Don't remember - who?

Zoya, it's simple. Tomatoes are tall and large at the end of February - beginning of March to give them a run so that they are older. In April I throw them out on the loggia. It's cool there, they don't outgrow, become plump, stocky, etc. purple from the cold. But when I throw them into the ground (precisely May 15-20) under arches, they don’t get sick, don’t freeze, and take root well. And in June, here June is also very unpredictable - sometimes hot, sometimes cold, but mine have already taken root and are not afraid of the sun, the neighbors’ seedlings often burn, there are sticks, and new growth comes from the root. Last year I immediately planted them in place, and just in case, I planted some of them thickly, like seedlings; if suddenly some of them are bent, you can always replant them - they feel better in the ground than in boxes. But I sowed it for myself, and now I need to think about seedlings for sale, which means I’ll have to change tactics, because I won’t be able to place everything on the loggia (flowers, vegetables). I will sow on April 4-5, I think it will be normal.
