Impressions from amateur vegetable growers
Happy owners of their own greenhouses have had time to appreciate the advantages of a modern hybrid. Grateful reviews of the Artist f1 tomato come from different parts of the country:
- Tatyana Yakovlevna Kappes (Moscow region): “The Artist planted the tomato both in a greenhouse and in a bed without shelter. The street version turned out to be not very successful, but in the greenhouse the variety performed best of all. There were a lot of brushes, and all of them were even, just like in the picture. They were in great demand at the market. Buyers bought pickling buckets without haggling.”
- Irina Pushkareva (Kemerovo region): “I first purchased Artist seeds from several years ago,” a neighbor advised. Since then I have been planting constantly. Last year I didn’t have time to treat the greenhouse, and many tomatoes got sick and disappeared. But not the Artist! Not a single tomato turned black. The bushes remained green until October - and here in Siberia it’s already deep autumn!”
- Nikitin Leonid Abramovich (Chelyabinsk region): “My family and I constantly joked: this is an Artist, such an Artist! Fully lives up to its name: slender, beautiful, with crazy dedication. The tomatoes lay there for a very long time. The last fresh salad was made for the New Year.”
It is precisely because of its advantages that both experienced and novice gardeners love this variety of tomatoes.
Varietal features
If we talk about the Artist tomato, then it is definitely worth noting several of the most important characteristics of the variety.
Fruit
Hybrid Artist - carpal type. This means that the ovaries are located evenly in the hand, on both sides. All tomatoes are almost identical in size, smooth, beautiful. Within one brush they are poured and ripened at the same time. It is convenient to harvest such tomatoes in whole bunches, transport them in this form and put them in storage.
Features of cultivation
Tomato General F1 is endowed with high viability. The hybrid successfully tolerates a decrease or increase in temperature, deviations in humidity, etc. Despite these characteristics, obtaining a good harvest requires compliance with certain rules of agricultural technology.
- Seeds are planted for seedlings 60-65 days before moving to a permanent place.
- Although the stem is not tall, a large number of fruits on the clusters require garter. It is advisable to install the supports simultaneously with planting.
- No more than 4 plants are placed per 1 m².
- Form a plant into 2 stems. Throughout the growing season, the stepsons on the main shoot are removed, leaving one in the leaf axil, located under the first flower raceme. A second branch is grown from it.
- In mid-July, the top of the head is pinched. The reception allows the last fruits to ripen or become fully saturated.
- Water and feed the tomato in the same way as other tomatoes in the garden. Find out more about how to feed tomatoes in the garden.
Attention! The maximum yield is obtained by forming determinate tomatoes into 3 stems, but this method delays ripening.
Description of the Artist tomato and rules for growing a hybrid variety
Tomato Artist f1 was registered in the Russian Seed Registry in 2003. Farmers can purchase its seeds directly from the manufacturer (agronomic) or in retail stores or “Aelita”).

How to grow the described variety?
A plant of this type can bear fruit well when the light is insufficient for other tomatoes. As one farmer says:
“I’ve been growing the Artist tomato for several years now. I tried to grow bushes in the darkened corners of the greenhouse - for comparison, I left several beds in normal lighting. The result was surprising - all the bushes had almost the same number of brushes.”
You need to know that Artist, although intended for growing in warm, protected soil, can easily tolerate temperature stress. This variety also produces crops in cold summers with temperature changes. He is not afraid of heat, since it has practically no effect on the development of fruits.
After germination of seeds and transfer of seedlings to the ground, it is recommended to quickly remove stepsons if they appear. The formation of a bush should be carried out in 1-2 trunks. It is recommended to plant no more than 3-4 bushes per 1 m².
It is necessary to loosen the soil in time and remove weeds. Water the tomatoes with warm water. The plant should not be allowed to remain without fertilizing. At first, it is recommended to use more nitrogenous fertilizing, and after the ovaries appear, they switch to the use of potassium and phosphorus fertilizers. If they are not available, you can use manure, ash or peat.
Review of tomato variety F1: characteristics and yield
What are these tomato varieties with the ending F1? In this way, hybrid tomatoes specially bred by breeders by crossing other varieties are marked. Scientists have worked hard to ensure that newly created plants have the best qualities of their ancestors. As a rule, hybrids have good characteristics - they are resistant to many diseases, are not afraid of cold weather, and are undemanding to soil fertility.
Features of hybrid tomatoes
F1 varieties can belong to a low-growing species, a tall one, and may have different ripening periods. The characteristic indicates the different size, color and weight of the fruit. For sale to summer residents they offer a wide variety of hybrids, for every taste and for any purpose - these are red and orange tomatoes, small and large, for pickling and for fresh consumption. Characteristics and descriptions of F1 tomato varieties indicate the properties of a particular variety.
The main feature of hybrids is that the seeds obtained from the harvest cannot be used for sowing seedlings for the next year. Seeds of hybrid tomatoes retain the attractive properties of their parents for only 1 season. Next season, no one can guarantee that a vegetable with the same properties will grow from the seeds of tomatoes collected on the plot. Every year you need to buy new hybrid seeds from a specialty store.
Breeders note that the greater the difference in characteristics between the tomato varieties being crossed, the stronger the hybrid can be obtained.
The main advantages of hybrid varieties are as follows:
- resistance to common vegetable diseases and pests;
- undemanding to the growing soil;
- early fruit ripening;
- increased productivity.
Hybrid varieties may be somewhat inferior to pure tomatoes in terms of fruit taste, but this drawback is not too noticeable.

Negative reviews
I want to say about the hybrid usmanf1. The hybrid is no good. The description does not coincide with reality at all. I don’t advise anyone to plant it.
This year I planted Pink Dream. I did not like. Planted in a greenhouse, height 80-100 cm.
Harvest, early one of the first to turn red, but the taste. hard, sourish, similar to store-bought.
There is no comparison with Pink spam. I planted small tomatoes, 70-80g, into three trunks.
All had spouts, but one bush was round and without a spout. I won't plant it anymore.
Some disadvantages for a very high price.
Tomato seeds Royal Sluis “President F1” - Nonsense, I will never buy again.
Recently, tomato diseases have become very common. And there are so many of them. Previously, such diseases had never been heard of. There was always a good tomato harvest and excellent preservation. And for the last five years there has been some kind of misfortune, sometimes it will rain and they will all turn black, sometimes there will be rotten spots on the fruits, and sometimes you pick a good tomato, but when you cut it, it’s white inside and has veins. A relative praised the Dutch varieties. said. that the neighbors had lost all their tomatoes, and she was bringing them in buckets and they were all so beautiful and delicious. I also caught fire. I bought some Dutch ones and this variety was among them. I planted it and waited for a great harvest. There were a lot of tomatoes. but they are all sick, dry and not juicy, even if you throw them against the wall, they won’t burst or crack like a cobblestone. They look beautiful, but are white and wiry inside. After canning, almost all the jars exploded because the tomatoes inside were sick. And those that did not explode were able to try - it is impossible to eat, they are stringy and the veins do not gnaw. In short, it's complete nonsense. I will never buy this kind of stuff again. No one has yet developed anything better than our Newcomer and Gifts.
I also stopped being fooled by such seeds: the quality of the seeds themselves leaves much to be desired. I grow my favorite pink “Oxheart”, etc. - seeds from my garden and have good harvests every year. And only chemistry and phytosporin save me from illnesses
Ultra early tomato Lyubasha F1
I planted Lyubashva, which sprouted with difficulty - I’m not happy with them, on six bushes there are 2-3 clusters of fruits each, they are more than 1.2 meters tall, the bushes are very modest, nothing grew as promised, it’s a shame that they didn’t really correspond to your stories, next year I will try to plant again and if the same result is the same I will not contact the Partner company again - I feel sorry for both the money and my efforts

Landing
Plants are planted in the second half of May. At this time the temperature reaches a limit of 20 degrees
Particular attention is paid to the landing site. Tomatoes of this variety prefer sunny areas.
The distance between crops should be 50 cm. To grow a crop, the following recommendations must be followed:
- selection of seed material. It is recommended to purchase seeds from special centers;
- thorough soil preparation. To do this, the area is dug up several times and fertilized with organic matter.
Growing seedlings
Tomatoes of this variety are grown using seedlings. This requirement is directly related to its late maturation
Particular attention is paid to the container and soil substrate
Tomato seedlings are grown in special rosettes made of thick paper. In the future, it is enough to separate one plant from the total mass and plant it together with a paper container in the ground. Thanks to this, it is possible to preserve the root system and shorten the rehabilitation period of the tomato in a new place.
Planting soil is prepared using a mixture of peat, sand and leaf humus. The ingredients are mixed in a one to one ratio. Pre-treatment of the components with antiseptic compounds will help prevent the proliferation of pathogenic infections inside the paper container.
The seed material is soaked in a solution of potassium permanganate for one day. After this, they are washed under running water. To prevent the development of fungal infections, use a solution of Fitosporin.
Before planting the seeds in the soil substrate, lightly moisten them with a spray bottle. Next, small grooves 1 cm deep are formed. The distance between the containers in paper cassettes is 4 cm.
Landing in the ground
Tomatoes are planted when the plant reaches a height of 30 cm. The tomato is first pinched. To do this, the bottom sheets are removed. As a result, it is possible to reduce the load on the vegetable course during its growth.
Before planting in the ground, plants are hardened off for two weeks. To do this, carry out regular ventilation in the room.
