Features and technical characteristics of tomato cluster hybrids
To understand in more detail the features of raceme tomatoes, you need to familiarize yourself with their technical characteristics.
The main feature of the crop is considered to be the ripening of the crop in small clusters, which can contain about 10-20 tomatoes. All cluster varieties are divided into three subgroups, which differ in the size of the clusters with ripe tomatoes:
- large-fruited, weighing about 900-1000 grams;
- medium-fruited, which grow up to 500 grams;
- small brushes weighing 250-300 grams.
The fruits of many raceme varieties are covered with a strong and reliable skin that does not crack. Most often, tomatoes are small and weigh 50-60 grams. They are used in cooking to create preserves and vegetable salads.

Agricultural technology for growing a hybrid
Like other varieties and hybrids of tomatoes, Matias is grown in seedlings. To get an early harvest, seeds are planted for seedlings in mid or early March (depending on the weather conditions of the region). After planting in fertile, loose soil, containers with seedlings are covered with film until the seeds germinate. As soon as the seeds hatch, the film is removed and the plants continue to be grown in an open, warm and sunny place, maintaining the room temperature at 24–26 degrees.
Until two permanent leaves appear on the sprouts, the soil is watered by spraying.
After the leaves appear, the seedlings are planted in separate containers and grown until the onset of warm weather conditions outside. Plants are transplanted into the greenhouse in May-June; this also depends on the temperature in the room. The optimal values are 22–25 degrees during the day and 16–20 at night.

Plant care
After planting the seedlings, they are constantly looked after to obtain a high-quality and early harvest.

- Stepsonning. The variety is usually grown in one stem, so all the stepsons are removed. If you decide to grow 2-3 stems, then leave several stepsons.
- Loosening and watering. Immediately after watering, the soil under the bushes needs to be loosened so that the lump of earth above the roots does not retain moisture and air access.
- Fertilizer. When growing tomatoes, feed the soil and greenery of the plants at least three times a season.
- Harvesting. To obtain a large number of ripe fruits, the crop is harvested immediately after ripening. Ripe fruits retard the growth of young tomatoes. Characteristics of fertilizing: mineral and organic.

general characteristics
The Big Momma tomato variety was developed by Russian breeders. It was included in the State Register in 2015. The originator is the selection plant.
The main task was to restore the unforgettable taste and aroma of tomatoes, while maintaining the disease resistance characteristic of Dutch varieties and immunity to the unfavorable conditions of central Russia. And do this without the use of GMOs, using only traditional breeding methods.
Description of fruits and bush
The plant is determinate, medium leafy, bush height is 50-60 cm in open ground, in greenhouses it can reach 70 cm.
The first flower cluster is formed after 7-8 internodes; from 5 to 8 flowers are tied on the cluster.
The fruits are smooth, round and flat-round in shape, slightly ribbed, large, weighing up to 250 g, and do not crack during transportation or improper watering.
The color of the unripe fruit is light green, the ripe one is deep red. The tomatoes are medium-density, multi-chambered, with sugar on the break, sweet, aromatic and juicy.
Rating by State Register tasters – 5 out of 5.
Productivity
Big Momma's seeds are Russian, they are adapted to the real conditions of the central zone of the Russian Federation. As a result, the variety shows consistently high yields even in bad weather conditions (rainy or dry summers, high or low temperatures).
Subject to the recommended agricultural practices, from 1 sq. m of plantings, up to 9 kg of fruits are collected or 1.8 - 2 kg from one bush.
Area of application of fruits
Thanks to its true tomato flavor, the main purpose of the Big Momma tomato is salad. Juice, ketchup, and pastes are also made from it.
The variety is suitable for drying and freezing. For whole-fruit canning, only small fruits that have not reached commercial maturity are used.
Resistance to diseases and pests
The variety is noted to have high immunity to traditional nightshade diseases - bacteriosis, spotting, and blossom end rot. And thanks to its early ripening period, it does not have time to “catch” the traditional late summer disease - late blight.
