Tomato Dorodny characteristics and description of the variety, cultivation and yield with photos

Eagle beak

A tomato with the proud name Eagle Heart occupies the bottom line of our top.
Everyone who grows these giant tomatoes with an elongated tip, shaped like a heart, leaves only positive reviews about it. The weight of the fruit reaches 600-800 g, and sometimes up to 1 kg. One such pink-raspberry fleshy “bug” - and you can feed the whole family with salad! The tomato pulp is sugary, juicy and sweet. The variety is determinate, has a medium ripening period - in a greenhouse with nutritious soil the bushes grow up to 170 cm and require pinching and staking. In open ground they may be slightly lower. But their yield sometimes exceeds 10 kg per bush. For the sake of such impressive results, no effort is spared. Moreover, the tomato shows resistance to most diseases, does not lose its shape during transportation and can be stored for up to 3 months.

The bronze “medal” and 3rd place in the ranking goes to Eagle’s Beak, popular among many tomato growers! The variety is mid-season (110-115 days), semi-determinate - the height of strong bushes reaches 120-150 cm. Proper shaping, tying to a trellis and timely pinching will help them develop harmoniously and bear fruit well. Under ideal conditions and with proper agricultural technology, the yield can be up to 8 kg per bush.

“Eagle beak is the best, I have no competition yet, the leader for today.” Olga Nesmeyanova.

The fruits are large, of unusual shape, with an elongated and curved tip, similar to a beak. On average, they weigh 200-400 g, but some grow up to 800 g. The pulp is dense and juicy, with a sweetish taste.

The variety is resistant to the main nightshade diseases - late blight, fusarium and tobacco mosaic virus. Tomatoes tolerate transportation well due to their thick skin and do not crack during canning.

“I really like Eagle Beak!!!” Nina Belevtseva.

The absolute leader in the popular rating of tomatoes, which received a record number of votes, is the generally recognized and most popular variety, Bull's Heart! A real Senor Tomato in all respects!

The variety is late-ripening - the first fruits (5 pieces in a cluster) ripen 120-130 days after emergence. In open ground, the yield ranges from 3 to 5 kg of tomatoes per bush. In a greenhouse, this figure can increase to 12 kg. Determinate type bush - stems grow up to 1.5 m or more. To achieve record harvests, do not neglect care - timely shaping and tying to the support, preventive treatment against late blight - and the harvest will not keep you waiting!

Species diversity of tomatoes.

Tomatoes are divided into types according to different criteria.

But, it is important for a gardener to know only a few of them in order to choose the best varietal tomatoes for the garden. Thus, all varieties of tomatoes are usually divided according to the type of growth of the bush into:

Determinant;
Indeterminate;
Semi-determinant.

Determinate varieties are mostly intended for cultivation in open ground. Their peculiarity is the formation of a large number of lateral shoots, thus the bushes require regular pinching. A determinate tomato requires the formation of a bush. Most varieties are low-growing.

They produce a large harvest, mostly early - they ripen quickly, which is especially important especially in regions with a cool climate and short summers. Indeterminate varieties are special in that their main stem is capable of growing indefinitely; these include tall varieties

The ovaries form at the main stem. This species is thermophilic and recommended for greenhouse cultivation.

Indeterminate varieties are special in that their main stem is capable of growing indefinitely; these include tall varieties. The ovaries form at the main stem. This species is thermophilic and recommended for greenhouse cultivation.

Semi-determinate varieties are also optimal for soil. They do not have a particularly tall main stem; most of them include low-growing varieties that are not demanding on pinching. In general, they do not require special care. Semi-determinate varieties are usually productive and resistant to diseases and cold. Let us designate the varieties of tomatoes for open ground of the determinant type:

"Sanka" is a very popular low-growing tomato variety. Fruits up to 100 g.
“Bullfinch” - medium-sized fruits, weighing no more than 150 grams, not demanding to care for;
“Rocket” - plum-shaped fruits of small size, high yield, suitable for pickling and canning.
“Staroselsky” is an early-ripening large-fruited tomato variety. Universal tomatoes.
"Mazarin" is a tall, determinate variety. The fruits are medium in size and shaped like a heart.
“Yamal” is a low-growing, standard, determinate plant with medium branching. The fruits are large and the harvest is good.
“Dachnik” is an early-ripening tomato, medium-sized fruits, and above-average yield.
“Metelitsa” is a highly productive variety that does not require care.
“Lena” is not a tall tomato, the fruits are average, the yield is excellent.
“Dubrava” is a not tall, heavily leafy tomato; the fruits grow in beautiful clusters.

The best indeterminate varieties for soil:

“Khlebosolnye” is a large-fruited variety of medium ripeness;
"De Barao" yellow and pink varieties have proven themselves to be the best in terms of yield and taste. The pink variety has elongated, pepper-like fruits, sugary and with dense pulp;
The hybrid variety Tarasenko-2 is a large-fruited, low-growing salad variety, suitable for canning, for example, for lecho or homemade sauces.

Varieties of the semi-determinate type are mostly low-growing and are optimal for growing in open ground.

It is not demanding in care, so there is no need to form a bush, carry out pinching or tie it to a trellis. They are quite productive and belong to universal varieties. They are suitable for salads, canning and juicing.

The best semi-determinate varieties last year were recognized as:

The most popular varieties in this type are associated with the Siberian Garden, among them “Heavyweights of Siberia”, “Sibiriada”, “Siberian Troika” - early-ripening, low-growing tomatoes, with medium and large fruits, fleshy, sugary; Not very experienced gardeners should pay attention to varieties such as “Alaska”, “Bobcat”, “Parodist”, “Boni-M”; In the “most productive” category, such varieties as “Buyan”, “Roker”, “Russian delicious” were noted - the fruits are medium-sized, with a yield from each bush that can reach up to 5 kg; Ultra-early ripening varieties that have received special praise from gardeners are “Gayas Bekseev”, “Bringing Good Luck”. These varieties are not only resistant to diseases, not demanding on the soil, and resistant to drought.

The best varieties of tomatoes with descriptions

Before you accurately choose a variety or hybrid of tomatoes, you need to decide where exactly they will grow.

For open ground, low-growing varieties that will ripen early are more suitable. Mid-ripening species in good summer weather can produce a fairly good harvest, but they are susceptible to microflora, which can destroy most fruits.

It is customary to grow tall varieties and various hybrids in greenhouses. Here you can plant absolutely any tomatoes, even late-ripening ones.

Tomatoes are one of the most popular vegetable crops; we plant them for vitamins for the summer table and tasty preparations. And if the area of the greenhouse or garden bed is limited, high-yielding varieties are needed to produce more useful fruits. Modern tomato hybrids must provide the following qualities:

precocity;
high yield;
resistance to major tomato diseases;
commercial properties of fruits: uniformity in size and shape, attractive color, absence of cracking, keeping quality and transportability;
good taste of fruits;
short internodes of shoots, compact arrangement of inflorescences;
strong, short inflorescences bearing 5-7 fruits;
the ability to continuously form fruit clusters – a generative type of development (for greenhouse indeterminate bushes).

What tomatoes can be called high-yielding? In quantitative terms, these are varieties and hybrids, from one bush of which we can get 10 or more kilograms of fruit. In greenhouses, when grown year-round, they yield up to 40-50 kg per sq.m.

Read about the Zozulya cucumber variety here.

Koenigsberg

A mid-season variety of indeterminate (up to 2 m in height) tomatoes, which confidently took 10th place in our amateur rating. The first fruits usually ripen 110-115 days after sowing the seeds. Even beginners can cope with their cultivation. The variety has been tested and hardened in the harsh conditions of Siberia. Therefore, you can safely plant these tomatoes in open ground. Their productivity indicators are impressive - from 4 to 18 kg per 1 sq.m.

“Konigsberg performed well both in the greenhouse and in the OG.” Yuri Kuzminykh.

The oblong fruits ripen in clusters of 6 pieces, they weigh on average 300 g, under favorable conditions the weight can be 2-3 times higher than the standard declared by the manufacturer. Both the skin and the pulp of tomatoes are dense, which makes them easier to transport. Of course, they are healthier to eat fresh, but they are also very tasty in the form of juice, thick paste or sauce. There are varieties of red and yellow color (Golden Konigsberg).

“Konigsberg is an excellent variety, it bears fruit throughout October, from one bush to 2 buckets. In the greenhouse, of course." Lyudmila Petlyuk.

How to grow tomatoes

To transplant seedlings into open ground, stable weather and above-zero temperatures are required. After planting the seedlings in the beds, it is also recommended to cover them with film for the first time.

Landing

Before planting, be sure to carry out procedures to disinfect the soil. The preparations “Bactofit” and “Planzir” are excellent for this. Apply the products to the top layer of soil. Also, do not forget to dig up the beds and remove all debris and old plants from them. When you prepare the ground, place the sprouts in it at a distance of 50 cm from each other. Be careful not to damage the still immature and weak stems.

For 1 sq. m, plant no more than three bushes of the Family variety. Dense plantings only harm the bushes and reduce productivity. For better development, immediately after planting, water the bushes with warm water. Cut off the lower leaves so that they do not take away nutrition.

Care

First of all, the bushes need shaping. As a rule, Family is formed into 2 stems, removing all side shoots and leaving 3-4 leaves. You should not remove stepsons with your bare hands; wear gloves and use garden shears.

Carry out pinching every 5-7 days. Also remove growing leaves during the entire ripening period. Ideally, you should end up with a bush on which there is nothing except trusses with tomatoes.

The Family variety is notable for its large and heavy tomatoes, which means that it is necessary to tie the bushes to a support. Wooden stakes and twine are usually used as support. Place a peg near each bush at a distance of 30-50 cm. As soon as the tomatoes begin to form, tie the bush to a support. If this is not done, the brushes will break under the weight of the tomatoes.

Don't forget to water your tomato beds promptly. It is best to do this in the early morning or evening. Try to ensure that water gets only under the root of the plant, bypassing the stem, leaves and fruits. Excessive humidity leads to cracking of the fruit. For 1 bush, use no more than 0.5 liters of water.

An important stage of growing is feeding. Ideally, gardeners recommend alternating mineral and organic fertilizers.

The most effective fertilizers are recognized:

ash;
nettle infusion;
yeast solution;
manure and droppings;
aloe juice;
"Kornevin";
"Epin";
"Solution."

Deposit funds every 10-15 days

Pay special attention to fertilizers at the stage of flowering and fruiting of the bush. If you use chemicals, follow the recommendations and dosage recommended by the manufacturer

Features of cultivation and possible difficulties

Often, if the rules of planting and care are followed, gardeners observe that the bushes are damaged by infections and fungi. The reason for this may be insufficient soil tillage before sowing.

To avoid this, gardeners advise:

divide the garden into narrow beds of 2 m each;
observe crop rotation and do not sow tomatoes in the same place for more than three years;
do not plant the hybrid after potatoes or zucchini;
Carefully remove the tops and burn them away from the beds.

If the area is small, it is better not to use chemicals, but to give preference to biological disinfectants. The solutions “Baikal-EM 1” and “Baikal-EM 5” are especially effective.

Diseases and pests

Most often, gardeners complain about late blight, a fungal infection. This enemy of tomatoes attacks the crop year after year and destroys the crop. Signs of late blight are brown spots on the leaves and a white coating. The reasons lie in improper care, high humidity, and an excess of nitrogen-containing fertilizers. For prevention, spraying with a soap solution or a solution based on whey is used.

Tomatoes are also affected by root rot, blackleg and powdery mildew. Diseases affect different parts of the plant, disrupt the body’s metabolism and take away vitamins and minerals from the bushes. A solution of copper sulfate helps get rid of them.

Of the insects, the hybrid is most often attacked by aphids and whiteflies. Outwardly similar to each other, flying insects land in flocks on castings and cover them with white cobwebs. They are perfectly camouflaged, making it difficult to notice pests. For prevention, it is recommended to use wood ash.

I. Hybrids

Tomato varieties according to growth are conventionally divided into tall, medium-sized and low-growing:

tall - reach a height of 2 m or more;
medium-sized - have a height of about 1 - 1.5 m;
low-growing - usually do not exceed a height of 0.8 - 0.9 m.

However, classification according to the type of branching of the bush is more common. On the packets of seeds we see the following characteristics: “determinant”, “indeterminate”, “semi-determinate”. What do these words mean in practice?

The indeterminate type is a tomato bush that grows strongly upward. The stem grows continuously throughout the season; lateral branches, in turn, produce stepchildren of the second to fourth orders. The first fruit cluster is tied after 10–14 leaves, the subsequent ones alternate every 3–4 leaves. The indeterminate type of growth is most often characteristic of late-ripening and mid-ripening tomatoes.

Determinate tomatoes are varieties with reduced shoot formation and the ability to self-regulate growth (such as Novichok). Stepchildren in such varieties are formed in the lower third of the stem. After the formation of 4-6 fruit clusters, the main stem stops growing and branching, the growth of the tips of the lateral shoots also stops after the formation of 2-4 inflorescences, such as Klusha

Tomatoes of the semi-determinate type of branching occupy a middle position between these groups. Inflorescences in semi-determinate varieties are usually formed through 2 internodes. This type includes many medium-sized, less often tall, hybrids and varieties.

Hybrid tomatoes are virtually guaranteed to be resistant to diseases and bad weather conditions, which is something that non-hybrid varieties suffer from. Greenhouses and greenhouses are valued for storing heat, but in them tomatoes can suffer from too high temperatures and sudden temperature changes. In recent years, world selection has been aimed at producing “heat-resistant” hybrids with a reliable guarantee of ovary production.

Hybrids are especially helpful in a greenhouse or a small garden plot where there are no real opportunities for crop rotation and diseases are prevalent. Selection successes demonstrate confident resistance to various types of infections - viral (especially the most dangerous tobacco mosaic virus), fungal, bacterial. In addition, the hybrids have uniform fruits and consistently high yields.

Tomato Incas F1

One of the best hybrids for canning whole fruits without skin. Popular early high-yielding bush hybrid. The plant is medium-sized, compact.

Tomato from the Dutch company Numens, zoned in Russia; entered into the state register in 2000. Mid-early hybrid (105 days) of meter-high vegetables, determinate. Very high resistance to fungal diseases has been recorded. The fruits are 80-100 g, dense, bright red, pepper-shaped, fleshy, uniform, tolerate sunburn well, are very easy to ripen, transported over long distances without loss of quality.

Tomato Torquay F1

Dutch hybrid from Bejo Zaden; in the Russian register since 2007. Mid-season tomato (119-123 days from germination to ripening), bush type - determinate, maximum height 100 cm. Forms abundant multiple clusters with fruits weighing 60-140 g. Dense tomatoes withstand long-term transportation, excellent in pickling and pickling matters.

Tomato Mariana F1

The tomato was created in the French branch of the Japanese company Sakata (the image of the woman Mariana is a symbol of the French Republic). The breeders of this agricultural company are often suspected of producing GMOs, but so far without real evidence. Mariana is a mid-early determinate hybrid. The fruits are similar in shape to Incas - also elongated-oval, perfectly smooth, super dense.

Tomato Bagheera F1

Hybrid from the leading French seed company Cloz. Included in the Russian seed register in 2007.

Early high-yielding hybrids are a real boon for the garden. They are cold-resistant, do not need pinching or tying up, and practically do not get sick. The ripening period is marked as medium-early; determinate bush. The fruit is round, flattened on top, ribbed, weight ranges from 80-220 g. The hybrid is resistant to soil drought and nematode, more suitable for regions located in the south. Does not suffer from fusarium and verticillium wilt.

Tomato F1 Semko 2005

The tomato is suitable for open ground and under film shelters (greenhouses). Determinate, medium-sized, compact. Resistant to soil salinity, drought, high temperatures, grows well in open ground in both southern and northern regions. Vegetables practically do not suffer from viral and fungal diseases, even late blight.

Tomato F1 Semko 2010

Included in the state register in 2010. Ultra-early ripening determinate hybrid - 85-88 days pass from the sprouting of green vegetables to the coloring of fruits. The first brush is formed immediately after the sixth leaf grows. The fruits are incredibly dense for such an early tomato, and are by no means small - 130 g. The shape is round hearts with a beautiful pointed tip.

The newest indeterminate hybrid (on the register since 2015) - tested by us, everything is fine - created taking into account all possible greenhouse disasters. Firstly, it sets well even in the heat, as well as during temperature changes. Secondly, it is tolerant of problematic soil substrates. Thirdly, it shows high resistance to viral, fungal and bacterial infections.

The yield of vegetables varies between 20-30 kg/1 square meter. Mid-early hybrid (100 days from green shoots). The clusters begin to form after 7-9 leaves, each bears 5-6 tomatoes in the shape of rounded hearts, smooth, beautiful, attractive orange color. The weight of the “heart” is 160-190 g. The pulp contains a high percentage of dry matter, sugars, and carotenoids. The fruits are quite dense and do not wrinkle during transportation. Purpose: salad. Created as an orange variant of another hybrid - Tomato Pink Spama.

Bushes of unlimited growth, with dense foliage. Mandatory shaping is required, including a garter. Hybrid of medium early or medium ripening period (112-118 days). Clusters of 6-8 tomatoes weighing 130-150 g. The fruits are plum-shaped, slightly tapering downwards. They are deep red in color, thick-skinned, with a high percentage of dry matter.

Tomato Empire F1

Abakan pink

On the 9th line - a variety of medium-late ripening (110-120 days from germination), determinate type (height - 70-80 cm). In a greenhouse it can grow up to 140-150 cm. The bush needs to be formed into 1-2 stems and tied up. It will ripen pink, heart-shaped fruits (weighing up to 300 g) with tasty, dense pulp. If cared for correctly, you can harvest tomatoes weighing up to 800g, rivaling in size the popular Ox's Heart.

There are many positive reviews about growing this tomato; no one criticizes it. It can be grown in Siberia, and to protect the bushes from returning spring or late autumn frosts, a light film cover will be enough. This representative of the nightshade family rarely gets sick; you will only have to ward off Colorado potato beetles from immature seedlings. In a word, it won’t cause you much trouble, and will delight you with tomatoes – both in salads in the summer and in preparations for the winter.

“I recommend Abakan pink. Unpretentious and very tasty." Lydia Domnikova-Kazakova.

Albedo variety

The Staroselsky tomato is one of the many achievements of Russian breeders. Due to its place of origin, the variety is fully adapted to cultivation in Russia. This species can be planted either in a greenhouse, aimlessly, or in open garden plots.

Agronomists classify the plant as a determinate variety. Its growth can reach 1 meter in height. The bush is capable of forming without human help, however, experienced summer residents advise intervening in this process in order to achieve good yields.

The fruit of the Staroselsky tomato is characterized by its bright, red color with an orange tint. The berries have a regular, round shape and are distinguished by the presence of slight ribbing at the beginning. The weight of ripened tomatoes can reach up to 300 g, which indicates their large size.

The class has an average level of productivity. On average, 6 kg of ripened fruits are harvested from 1 square meter.

Storoselsky assholes have good taste characteristics. The sweet and sour taste provides an equal number of acids and sugars in the composition. There is a distinct tomato aroma.

Housewives use berries of this variety to prepare salads, winter preparations, various sauces, juices, and first and second courses.

Cio-chio-san

The only disadvantage of this indeterminate (sometimes growing up to 2 m) tomato is the need for support and shaping of the bush. The rest is a set of advantages! It is resistant to unfavorable conditions and can grow even in Siberia and the Far East. It bears fruit well not only in the greenhouse, but also in open ground. It is not afraid of the main nightshade diseases.

“In the greenhouse, I am always pleased with the Chio-chio-san variety from Gavrish. Maria Dolzhikova.

In terms of ripening time, the tomato belongs to the mid-early category - 100-120 days pass from the appearance of the first shoots to the start of fruiting. It won’t let you down with the harvest either - although the tomatoes are small (about 30-40 g on average), they ripen up to 50 pcs. on the brushes! So the yield from a bush with proper care is 4 kg and can reach a record 6 kg. And the taste of this tomato is excellent! And in the blanks it looks very presentable.

“Chio-chio-san - sweet, very productive, tall, with up to 50 smooth, thin-skinned sweet tomatoes in a bunch! Universal for both food and preservation.” Tatyana Vznuzdaeva. Tula region

Greenhouse tomatoes

Raceme tomatoes, which are collected and sold in bunches, are becoming increasingly popular. These tomatoes include hybrids: Fan, Minusinsky, Vladimir, Fatalist, Volgogradsky.

Their advantages:

highly marketable species - the fruits are aligned, in strong clusters;
transportability, fruits do not crack;
resistance to a number of diseases.

Fatalist F1

Ripens on 108-114 days from germination. Indeterminate, medium-sized bush. The leaf is dark green, medium. The first brush is tied above the 9th sheet, the others are laid through 3 sheets, without being twisted. The fruit is flat-round, smooth, dense, red, weighing about 110 g. The taste is good.

Advantages: high yield, marketability, good taste of fruits and keeping quality. Resistant to Fusarium wilt and viral diseases.

Commercial yield (in greenhouses) up to 34.0-38.0 kg/sq.m.

Tomato Fan F1

Used when growing in extended rotation, suitable for low-volume crops. The harvest is harvested 104-112 days from germination. The plant is indeterminate. The first inflorescence is laid over 8-9 leaves, the next ones after 3. The inflorescences do not break. The fruits are round, smooth, red, weighing 100-130 g, good taste. Resistant to diseases.

Vladimir F1

Medium-sized hybrid of indeterminate type. The fruits ripen from 107-115 days from germination. The leaf is dark green. The inflorescence is compact, tied above the 9th leaf, other clusters - after 3. The fruits are red, flat-round, smooth, 110-135 g. The taste is good and excellent. The fruits are marketable, tolerate transportation well, and are shelf-stable.

Yablonka Russia

Tomatoes with such a reverent name could not help but get into the top - they ripen early - from the time the first shoots appear until the moment when the bushes are completely strewn with small round fruits (weighing about 100 g) and really similar to bulk apples, it takes from 118 to 135 days.

Many consider this tomato to be problem-free - it is determinate, standard bushes grow low - up to 100 cm; there is no need to shape them and pin them; They are not capricious and feel great and set fruit both in the greenhouse and in the open ground. One bush can simultaneously ripen up to 100 neat tomatoes suitable for canning - the skin will not burst, there is no need to worry. Not a tomato, but just a sight for sore eyes!

Agrotechnical growing conditions

Cultivation of the variety is carried out in seedlings. Seeds are planted in March. To do this, a thin layer of mineral wool is placed at the bottom of the containers, soil is poured and compacted on top, and the prepared seed is laid.

Before sowing, the seeds are treated with an aqueous solution of aloe and a growth stimulator. This procedure allows you to increase the plant’s immunity to fungal and viral diseases.

The seeds are placed on the surface of the soil and mulched on top with peat or a soil layer 1 cm thick. Watering is carried out with warm water using a sprayer, the container is covered with film until sprouts appear.

To form seedlings, it is necessary to observe the temperature regime. Before emergence, the temperature is maintained at +23–25 °C. When sprouts form, the air is heated to +15-16 °C for 5-7 days, and then increased to +20-22 °C.

In the phase of formation of 2 true leaves, the seedlings are planted in separate containers. For this purpose, it is better to use peat pots, with which the seedlings are transferred to a permanent place. This method allows you to preserve the root system.

When 6-7 true leaves and at least 1 flower cluster are formed, the bushes are transferred to open or protected ground. Bushes of this variety require tying to additional support.

During the growing season, it is recommended to timely apply mineral fertilizers according to the manufacturer’s scheme. To create a balance of moisture and air near the root system, loosen the soil.

III. Semi-determinate varieties (tall in the greenhouse, medium in the ground)

The favorites among cultivars with excellent yields are cold-resistant varieties with high immunity to fungal diseases. It is important that tomatoes are maximally adapted to climatic conditions and do not reduce productivity under unpredictable weather conditions. This is especially true for risky farming areas.

The tomato varieties Semko-Sinbad, De Barao, and the hybrid Ivanhoe F1 have received well-deserved distribution in amateur and farm farms. In a greenhouse, these varieties can produce a yield of more than 20 kg per bush.

De Barao

The most common tomato variety for both greenhouses and open ground is often called golden De Barao. With good care in a greenhouse it yields up to 30 kg per plant, in open ground - 10 kg.

Late-ripening (120 days) indeterminate variety with a height of 2 m or more. Inflorescences are formed from 9-11 leaves. The fruits are medium-sized, ovoid, weighing 60 g. The taste is pleasant. De Barao fruits are good both fresh and for canning whole fruits.

Agrotechnical features: sensitive to soil looseness, fertilizing and microclimate.

Several variations of this variety have been bred: De Barao black, pink, yellow. They are all tasty, beautiful and productive.

Quite old, but still popular early ripening hybrid. Valued for its early maturity - 85-93 days from germination. Determinate plant. The inflorescence contains 8 round, smooth fruits weighing 85-90 g. The first cluster appears above the 6-7 leaf, the rest after 1-2 leaves. The taste is good and excellent. Produces yield well and is disease resistant. The Semko-Sinbad F1 tomato can be planted both in a film greenhouse and in open ground. Productivity – 10 kg per 1 sq. m.

Ivanhoe F1

Mid-season, indeterminate. The bush is large, with powerful stems and roots. The fruits are flat-round, ribbed, dense, red. Fruit weight is 170-180 g, tomatoes do not decrease from the base of the bush to the top. The taste is good, the fruits are transportable and do not crack. Universal use. Ivanhoe F1 is very disease resistant and can be grown without the use of chemicals.

Alhambra F1

Indeterminate bush, short internodes. The inflorescence according to the description is formed above the 9th leaf, the next ones - after 3 leaves. The fruits are round, slightly ribbed, red, weighing up to 170 g. The clusters do not break. The taste is excellent for hybrid fruits.

Resistant to a number of diseases (fusarium, cladosporiosis and tobacco mosaic virus).

Bushes that do not stretch uncontrollably upward, but are capable of timely self-restraint, are very convenient to grow. At the same time, its respectable height determines excellent productivity indicators. Its versatility is also attractive: it can be planted anywhere. True, in open ground you will need supports, but not very high ones.

Semi-determinate varieties, as a rule, are not too late, usually mid-early or mid-ripening. But you still need to step them up. In the open air, some varieties may require topping towards the end of the season (on average - early August). The standard height is from one to 1.5 (and a little higher) meters (this is observed in a greenhouse).

Tomato Eagle beak

Large, fast, productive

A wonderful variety in all respects. Created by the work of a team of famous Siberian breeders (V.N. Dederko, T.N. Postnikova, A.A. Yabrov). The variety has a state patent and has been listed in the register since 2005. Medium early in terms of ripening. The plant develops at a rapid pace: seedlings produce real leaves early and quickly grow ovaries.

Tomato Southern tan

Agrotechnics of cultivation

The variety is grown mainly in seedlings by planting plants in an indoor greenhouse. Description of cultivation:

Seeds for seedlings are planted in mid-March in fertile soil.
The plantings are covered with film until the first shoots appear.
Then the film is removed and cultivation continues until two true leaves appear on the bushes.
Afterwards, the seedlings are planted into separate containers. So it grows for another two weeks in a sunny place indoors.
After this period, the land is fertilized for the first time.

Plants should be transplanted into the greenhouse at the age of 60–65 days. Then 6–7 true leaves are formed on the bush. After transplanting to a permanent place of growth, the tomatoes are fertilized three more times, and the bushes are also cared for. It consists of the following manipulations:

Weeding.
Watering and loosening the soil.
Garter and stepson.
Treatment with poisons against diseases and pests.

In order for the fruits to ripen together, you need to trim the lower leaves. Then all the nutrients will go into the growth of vegetables, not the bush. Plants are fed: during flowering, formation of ovaries, ripening of tomatoes.

Plants of the Dorodny variety respond well to fertilizing and frequent watering, but this should not be abused. If the soil is too wet, the root system may rot and the plants will die. Fungus also develops well in climates that are too humid. Therefore, all manipulations must be carried out in moderation.

Harvesting is carried out as the fruits ripen. If ripe tomatoes hang on the branches, then the plant will not have enough energy to ripen green vegetables.

Weeding and loosening the soil will help get rid of grass, which absorbs nutrients, and fungus, which actively develops in airless soil.

Puzata hut

In terms of the number of votes received, it was not far from Monomakh's Cap. The appearance of these tomatoes fully explains the name. Large (300 g), pear-shaped, ribbed, just like squat gnome houses, these tomatoes ripen early - 105-110 days after planting the seedlings. True, they turn red gradually if there is a lot of heat and sun. They are grown in open ground and under film, where they ripen faster. The fruits are fleshy, taste very sweet and juicy.

The bushes are indeterminate, but even in a greenhouse their height rarely exceeds 170 cm. However, it will not be possible to do without shaping. The stems are thin and need staking, as they can lie down under the weight of the fruit. And the yield of these tomatoes, ripening in clusters of 3-5 pieces, is quite decent - 10-11 kg per bush. They are little susceptible to common cultural diseases, but preventive protective measures have never hurt anyone.

“This year I also want a Puzata hut. Last year a friend had them - just a miracle!” Marina Samoilova.

Golden domes

The collected votes allowed these tomatoes to take 4th place in the rating. They have a lot of good reviews, since the variety has almost no flaws, for which it is recognized and loved by many. It exhibits high resistance to major diseases, and timely applied insecticides will repel harmful insects.

Determinate bushes (height from 90 to 150 cm), medium ripening period (100-116 days). You will still have to form it into 2-3 stems and tie it up, so it won’t be possible without any effort on your part. The yield is very good - up to 13 kg per bush with an average weight of tomatoes of 200-400 g, and if the care is good, they will gain all 800 g! Ripe fruits are bright orange, juicy even in appearance. The pulp is fleshy, very tasty, sweet.

“I love golden domes very much - tasty, productive and beautiful. Excellent variety! Lyubov Chernoguz.

De Barao

Having pulled away from its “rivals”, the famous De Barao tomato variety takes an honorable 2nd place in the top varieties. The variety is late-ripening (ripening dates vary from 110 to 130 days from the moment of planting the seedlings), indeterminate (2-3 m), sometimes bushes can grow up to 4 m. The main advantages of the variety are its cold resistance, shade tolerance and productivity.

“The tall De Barao produces stable yields in any weather: in rain, in heat, even in the shade.” Tatiana Trach.

The productivity of De Barao is exceptional - from one bush you can collect from 4 to 10 kg of strong, oblong-shaped fruits weighing about 100 g. It is noteworthy that the plant produces its harvest over a long period of time (up to 3 months). There are varieties with pink, red, yellow and black fruits. Tomatoes store well due to their thick skin and for the same reason are suitable for pickling or pickling.

“The only one who stood in the greenhouse and ripened in October was De Barao. Resistant tin...” Tatiana Gorodetskaya.
