Modern tomato varieties for greenhouses must meet high requirements for a whole range of traits. In this article we will look at the best tomato varieties for 2017-2018, suitable for growing in greenhouses and greenhouses in various regions.
Indoor soil creates conditions close to the climate of the homeland of this vegetable (tropical America), which allows you to get maximum output from a small area. Heat accumulation and protection from cold, reliability are the most important advantages of a greenhouse over open ground.
But there are also disadvantages: excessive heat and high humidity, air stagnation and poor pollination, massive attacks of infections and pests, and lack of taste. The genetically inherent potential of the variety plays an important role in the final quantity and quality of the harvest.
Factors for selecting varieties
It is not easy to select the best varieties of tomatoes for greenhouses among the variety of assortments in 2022. Every gardener has his own understanding of “the best”; every plot of land has a special microclimate. Should be considered:
Purpose of cultivation: for family needs or for sale
For sale on the market, options with standard, leveled fruits, transportable, and with the highest possible return are selected. For personal needs, everything is determined by one’s own preferences.
Purpose and variety of fruits
We love tomatoes for their incredible variability: in terms of ripening time, shape, color, taste, nutritional value, and culinary capabilities.
Before the start of the planting season, you need to decide on your expectations: how many early vegetables do you want, and how many will go for storage, are you planning to preserve whole fruits, etc. You need to think in advance about the ratio of salad and pickling varieties, red and multi-colored, early and mature, the number of cherry and etc. "Targeting" in favor of one group can later lead to disappointment.
Need for stability or exoticism
There are gardeners with an ineradicable craving for experimentation, for whom yield and reliability indicators are not the most important.
Design features of the greenhouse
Many parameters matter.
- The assortment of tomatoes for year-round and summer greenhouses will differ. Plants for winter greenhouses (equipped with special heating) are expected to have increased stress resistance and tolerance to a lack of sunlight.
- The temperature regime of the greenhouse plays a huge role. The possibility of timely through ventilation, length, volume of air, number and location of doors and vents, automatic thermoregulation, greenhouse materials (film, polycarbonate, glass, agrofibre) - all this influences the choice of tomato variety.
In an optimal, stable microclimate, any options will be successful.
But breeders also offer specially bred forms that can withstand extreme heat, temperature contrasts, and cold snaps.
Water supply
Tomato plants love constant moderate humidity in the root zone. If it is not possible to ensure this, it is necessary to plant varieties that are not prone to fruit cracking and are drought-tolerant.
Disease forecast
This factor is one of the most important in greenhouse tomato cultivation. Indoor soil accumulates many harmful pathogens, which are very difficult to resist.
Special hybrid varieties cope with this problem more successfully.
But some vegetable growers are fundamentally opposed to hybrids due to fear of GMOs, while others do not like the “rubbery” density and bland taste of the fruits, and the cost of hybrid seeds is high, and there is a risk of running into a fake.
When giving preference to non-hybrid forms, it is necessary to carefully consider agricultural technology : the possibility of crop rotation, disinfection of seeds and greenhouses, ventilation, regular chemical or biological treatments, etc.
Bush height and potential yield
Not everything is decided by agricultural technology; each variety has its own “ceiling”. Of course, the most productive varieties of tomatoes for greenhouses are the most early ripening, but with long-lasting returns. As a rule, these are tall tomatoes - indeterminate. They must be reared into 1-2 (less often 3) trunks.
Is it possible to plant determinate tomatoes in a greenhouse? In general, the answer is yes, but the specific choice depends on the situation:
- Tomatoes with a determinate type of growth are convenient, but not too short - the so-called “semi-determinant”. They themselves slow down in development at a height of 120-150 cm, having tied several tiers of brushes. To further continue their growth (if necessary), leave the upper stepson - it will replace the stopped tip.
- Low-growing determinants are sometimes used as a border seal in greenhouse beds.
- Early ripening determinate tomatoes are a forced choice for greenhouses heavily infected with fungal and bacterial infections (when a significant part of the crop is lost annually). An early and healthy harvest will have time to ripen before the massive development of infections. After harvesting the fruits, the greenhouse is occupied with other vegetables (greens, radishes) or green manure.
Scheme: How to choose tomato seeds for greenhouses and open ground
Is it possible to grow different varieties of tomatoes in one greenhouse?
The answer is simple: it is possible, and even necessary. Tomatoes are a self-pollinating crop, and the harvest will begin even if there is only one variety, this is quite acceptable. But this will not satisfy all needs; Moreover, diversity reduces the role of instability and the risk of failure. It is advisable to plant both proven varieties and new selections annually.
New varieties of tomatoes
New products are the most resistant to diseases. Selection is also carried out to increase productivity, uniformity of fruits, and improve taste.

Agricultural technology
Mongolian dwarf tomato buy seeds
For cultivation in a heated greenhouse, tomato seeds are sown as seedlings in January - February. Early sowing will make it possible to get the first harvest at the end of April. For placement in open ground, there is no point in sowing before March - the plants will stretch out and will hurt when transplanted.
Growing
Caring for seedlings at the end of winter differs from later plantings by requiring plant lighting. The lamps are turned on in the morning and evening, extending the daylight hours to 10 - 12 hours. The rest of the cultivation is standard - watering with water at room temperature, picking in phase 2 - 4 true leaves, fertilizing with complex fertilizer twice, before planting the plants in greenhouses.
Important! During picking, tomato bushes are buried in the soil to the level of the cotyledon leaves. New roots form on the stem immersed in the ground
In the greenhouse, the plants are placed according to a 40 by 50 cm pattern. The bush is formed into one stem, removing all the stepsons and leaves up to the first flower cluster. Tomatoes are tied to trellises.
In open ground, the planting pattern is 50 by 70 cm, the growth of the bush is limited to 160 - 170 cm.
Watering is carried out using drip hoses or from a hose, strictly at the root. The water should not be cold!
Important! Tomatoes cannot tolerate high air humidity and become susceptible to fungal diseases. The greenhouse must have a ventilation system
Fertilizing with mineral fertilizers with a predominance of potassium and phosphorus is applied every 2 weeks.

Tomatoes for the greenhouse: the best varieties according to reviews from gardeners in 2022
At the beginning of the planting season, some gardeners think about what variety of tomatoes to choose for growing in a greenhouse this time? The reason for the hesitation may be different - some were not satisfied with the yield or taste of the fruits grown last year, others want to try something new.
To make the choice easier, let’s try to determine which varieties of tomatoes, according to user reviews in the past 2022, are the best:
- tasty;
- sweet.
The most delicious varieties of tomatoes
Taste preferences, as you know, vary from person to person. This also applies to assessing the taste properties of tomatoes. However, the juiciness of the fruit (not to be confused with “wateriness”), its aroma, the presence or absence of a harmonious combination of the main taste components in it, is perceived by the vast majority of people in approximately the same way and is a fairly objective basis for classifying the fruit as tasty or not.
According to reviews from most consumers, many domestic tomato varieties are superior to foreign ones in this parameter, including varieties from such famous breeding companies as Bejo Zaden or SYNGENTA AG, although they are inferior to them in a number of other characteristics (yield, transportability, disease resistance, etc.).
If you try to summarize the reviews, then the following are often called “delicious” varieties:
- Dad pink;
- Monomakh's hat;
- Giant pink;
- Budenovka;
- Rosemary pound pink.
These are large-fruited varieties, excellent for fresh consumption, as well as for making salads and juice.
Note that pink varieties of tomatoes are on average less productive than red ones, but according to most people they have better taste. This list, of course, does not exhaust the “tasty” varieties, and other consumers may have their own favorite types of tomatoes.
Sweet varieties of tomatoes
The concept of a sweet variety of tomato compared to a “tasty” one is more specialized. And here, the majority of reviews also turned out to be on the side of domestic varieties over foreign ones.
This is explained simply. Foreign varieties are focused on commercial success - high yield, transportability, keeping quality, preservation of presentation for a long time.
In contrast, tomatoes grown in greenhouses for personal consumption are subject to higher requirements for taste than for the characteristics listed above.
Consumers respond well to such sweet varieties as:
- Malachite Box;
- Rose honey;
- Truffle;
- Dimensionless;
- Bull's Heart;
- Honey King;
- Chernomor;
- Orange giant.
There are also good reviews for other sweet varieties in all varieties of tomatoes based on the type of their skin - green, orange, pink, red and purple.
Tomato varieties/hybrids are divided into greenhouse, open ground, and universal. What are the best varieties of tomatoes for greenhouses? The question is relevant and arises among vegetable growers every year before the start of the season.

Conclusion
Tall tomatoes are well suited for greenhouse cultivation
Dictionary:
Indeterminate - growing upward to an unlimited height, so that growth stops, the top is pinched.
Determinate – stops development after reaching a certain height.
Stepsoning is the removal of excess side shoots (they are called “stepchildren”) formed in the axils of the leaves.
Red tomatoes for cultivation in greenhouses ↑
The earliest ones are red in color. Early and mid-early varieties are often grown in greenhouses covered with polycarbonate or glass. Such varieties are better suited than others for cultivation in cool climates, for example, beyond the Urals or in the Leningrad region, since only early-ripening crops have time to ripen in a short summer. Greenhouses make it possible to lengthen the season and grow crops without ripening.
“Podmoskovny F1″ ↑
It is characterized by early ripening (95-105 days), demonstrates high fruit set. The bushes are medium-sized and have few leaves. They require formation into one shoot and pinching. The cluster is compact, consists of seven to nine fruits (about 140 g in weight). Characterized by the formation of brushes every two leaves. The tomatoes are firm and store well. The variety is resistant to fusarium, cladosporiosis and TMV (tobacco mosaic virus).
