Tips for growing the variety

Those who grew Dunn's culture claim that to get a high yield, you should adhere to the following rules:

  1. To obtain full-fledged seedlings, it is necessary to sow the seeds quite densely.
  2. When 2 true leaves are formed on the seedlings, strong, well-developed plants are selected and picked.
  3. Seedlings are planted in open ground only after frost has passed.
  4. The area for tomatoes should be well lit and protected from northern winds.
  5. Planting pattern 40x60 cm.
  6. During growth, plants are fed with root and foliar complex fertilizers.

Reviews from gardeners indicate that tomatoes do not require pinching or support. For the development of the plant, timely watering, weeding and loosening of the tree trunk are carried out.

“Danna has been planting tomatoes for several years in a row. I liked this variety for its low bushes, on which the fruits were compactly collected. The yield was also encouraging. From each bush I collected about 3 kg of tomatoes. The tomatoes are tasty, beautiful in appearance, and very good for preparing canned whole fruits and salads.” N. G. Apt

“I planted different varieties of tomatoes in my dacha. One of the best tomatoes I can highlight is Danna. The plant is absolutely undemanding in care and resistant to sudden cold snaps. In addition, tomato annually shows good yield indicators” Dmitry Ascheulov

The variety is relatively resistant to late blight, macrosporiosis and septoria of the vegetative mass.

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

Description of the variety

The Danna tomato is an early ripening vegetable crop of Russian selection. The variety was obtained in 1983 for cultivation in the Northern regions of Russia, Moldova and Ukraine.

Thanks to successful selection, tomato yields are always stable. Tomato harvesting occurs on days 110–117, after planting the seeds. The first brush of the inflorescence is formed above the 8th leaf of the plant, each subsequent one with an interval of 2 leaves.

  • Dunn's tomato bush is not a standard type;
  • plant height is 50–55 cm;
  • medium leaf variety;
  • the leaf is medium-sized, dark green;
  • the inflorescence is complex, bearing more than 5 fruits.

The tomato is intended for growing in open ground. In order for the yield to come earlier, vegetables can also be grown in greenhouses and greenhouse structures.

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.

Description of the hybrid tomato variety Danna, DIY cultivation

Tomatoes of the described type contain vitamins of different groups necessary for the human body.

Therefore, Dunn's tomatoes are used to eat vitamin salads. They can be used fresh, stewed, baked, pickled and canned.

Tomato Vasily description and characteristics of the variety, opinion of summer residents with photos

Advantages and disadvantages

  • early ripening;
  • stable yield, independent of weather conditions;
  • good taste;
  • relatively good resistance to diseases;
  • long-term fruiting.

No significant deficiencies were identified. You can find other high-yielding and disease-resistant varieties here.

Having analyzed all the reviews available to us left by those farmers who planted the Dacha tomato on their plot, we came to the conclusion that it has many advantages. Below you will find information about each of them, as well as photos of tomatoes.

Possibility of growing in any conditions. Tomatoes of the Dachnik variety can be grown both indoors and outdoors. However, given the fact that the bushes are very small, and the yield, as noted by those who planted this variety, is not particularly high, using a greenhouse in this process is not entirely practical.

The photo shows a compact tomato bush Summer Resident

Resistance to cold weather and disease. Feedback from farmers confirms the manufacturer’s statement that the Dachnik tomato tolerates low temperatures well. It is generally considered a fairly unpretentious variety. Its resistance to fusarium and blossom end rot has been confirmed. The plant has weak immunity to other diseases.

Early fruit ripening. Many summer residents appreciate this tomato because it ripens early. The first ripe tomatoes can be picked from the bush 95-115 days after the seeds sprout. That is, depending on the time of planting the seedlings, you will be able to cut the first salad of red tomatoes already at the beginning or end of July.

Tomato Summer resident does not need pinching. Forming tomato bushes often takes a lot of time from farmers. This is especially expensive during mass planting. Therefore, the great joy for many was the news that the Dachnik tomato does not have to be planted. Although, if you have a little free time, you can break off several stepsons, leaving only 3 or 4. Experts say that this way the fruits will be larger and ripen faster.

Fruit quality. Studying the reviews of farmers, we noticed that they could not get enough of the quality of ripe tomatoes of the Dachnik variety. Although they cannot be called particularly tasty, as is often the case with early tomatoes, they store and transport well, and are also very convenient to use. From the review of one housewife it follows that tomatoes can easily lie in the refrigerator for about three weeks.

Long fruit production. Farmers noticed that the Dachnik tomato does not produce all its fruits at once. Thanks to this extended ripening of tomatoes over time, the farmer has the opportunity to use them gradually, without unnecessary fuss.

Good yield. In their reviews, farmers note that the Dachnik tomato bushes are strewn with fruits. But due to the fact that the plant is low, it is not possible to collect a very large harvest per unit area. You can take approximately 3-4 kg from one bush. The variety cannot be called high-yielding, but the volume of fruit produced is not lower than average (photo of fruit provided).

Hybrid Vasily

  • the weight of each fruit varies from 130 to 160 g;
  • intended for cultivation in open soil or greenhouse conditions;
  • refers to early ripening varieties;
  • bush type – indeterminate;
  • fruit shape – pepper-shaped;
  • color – dark red;
  • excellent taste, the fruits have excellent lightness and moderate density.

Vasily tomatoes are an amazing hybrid. Refers to low-growing, early-ripening, but abundantly productive varieties. As a rule, by mid-June the growth of each bush reaches 0.6 m, abundantly showered with smooth, medium-sized fruits.

The fruiting period is long, the harvest is extremely stable, which gives the agronomist a feeling of stability and reliability.

There are many high-yielding tomatoes, and this gives good opportunities to choose the best variety according to your needs.

Features of cherry tomatoes grown in greenhouses

Most of these tomatoes can be grown not only in greenhouses, but also in beds in the garden. Only in the latter case do the bushes grow smaller, and their yield is less than when grown in greenhouse conditions.

Interesting article: Selection of the best varieties of tomatoes for the greenhouse

Another nuance of growing such tomato bushes in greenhouse conditions is regular pinching, since in such a microclimate lateral stems are actively formed. If this procedure is not carried out, then the bushes become very thick.

Growing cherry tomatoes: a greenhouse farmer's success story

It must be remembered that cherry tomato bushes require more space in the beds than regular tomato varieties.

But new vegetable growers should be reminded that if they want to get large yields from tomatoes, it is better not to expect them from varieties like cherry. Such tomatoes are rather an original addition to other tomatoes - with small fruit sizes, suitable mainly for decorating dishes or small-fruit pickling.

On a note!

None of these varieties has high yields, but cherry tomatoes almost always have excellent taste characteristics. They were loved by everyone around for their beauty and taste!

When choosing varieties, you should know in advance why cherry tomatoes are needed in the garden. Varieties with the smallest fruits are perfect for pickling or pickling; they are used to fill voids when preserving larger tomatoes.

To prepare vegetable salads, it is better to grow hybrid cherry or cocktail varieties - these tomatoes have larger fruits, more than 45 g.

These small cherry-type tomatoes are recommended to be grown directly for food.

Description and characteristics

The budenovka tomato is intended for cultivation both in greenhouses and in the garden. Without shelter it will grow well only in the southernmost regions of the country. In the middle zone it is better to grow this variety in greenhouses.

This is a tall tomato variety with an average fruit ripening period. In open ground it reaches a meter, and in greenhouses -1.5 m. Some descriptions say that it can grow up to two meters, but this happens very rarely.

The first tomatoes ripen within 3.5 months from the moment the seeds are sown. On average, the bush produces from 5 to 7 kg of fruit. It is resistant to late blight and fruit cracking. Moreover, this variety has a very high yield. Here the already popular descriptions do not lie.

Only viable seeds germinate well, as they have characteristics that allow them to grow quickly. Therefore, before planting them, you need to cull them. It can be carried out in two ways:

  1. Manual. Visual inspection of seeds. Those that show signs of illness or differ in color or size from healthy ones are separated.
  2. Using table salt. Place the seeds in a 1.5% salt solution and see which ones sink to the bottom and which float to the surface. Throw away the second ones - they are completely unsuitable for sowing. But the first ones are healthy. After selection, the seeds must be washed and dried.

The plant itself is not standard. The height ranges from 1 m to 1.5 m. Its rhizome is powerful, growing up to half a meter in width. The first inflorescence is formed above the 10th leaf, then every 4 or more leaves. It produces about 7 fruits. A medium-early tomato, as ripening begins around the 105th day after germination.

The shape of the fruit is heart-shaped with an elongated spout; the tomatoes are slightly ribbed. Some farmers saw that the uniform looked like a Red Army hat. This gave the variety its name. Tomatoes are larger than 17 cm in size, with an average weight of 350 g, but some are huge - more than 850 g. Their skin is thin, dense and smooth. The flesh is red, soft and fleshy. Lots of seeds that are evenly distributed. These tomatoes are stored for a long time and can easily withstand transportation. They need to be stored in a dark, dry place. The variety itself came to us from Siberia. It is universal, which means that it can be used for salads and soups, as well as for canning and stewing. They are often preserved in crushed form, because they themselves are very large. From one plant you can reap a large harvest - close to 8 kg, which is about 25 kg per 1 m2.

Growing seedlings

Flyashen tomato seeds for seedlings begin to be sown in the first ten days of March. To begin, the seed material must be placed in a glass of salted water. Seeds that float to the surface are discarded. The seeds that have sunk to the bottom are left for further processing. To disinfect, they can be soaked for 10 minutes in a 2% hydrogen peroxide solution. Then soak in a solution of a growth stimulator.

Humus mixed with turf soil in equal proportions can be used as planting soil. You can also purchase a ready-made soil mixture at a garden store. The soil needs to be calcined in an oven or spilled with a solution of potassium permanganate. For planting, use containers such as:

  • peat pots;
  • plastic containers;
  • wooden boxes.

The container is filled with soil. The seeds are planted to a depth of 1-1.5 cm and the container is covered with polyethylene film. As soon as the seedlings germinate (usually this takes about a week), the containers are moved to a room with good lighting and a lower temperature.

When cultivating seedlings in one container, they need to be planted into separate pots as two true leaves form. To reduce the risk of damaging the root system, the seedlings are handled along with the soil ball.

15-20 days before transplanting the seedlings to a permanent place, hardening begins. For this purpose, containers with tomatoes are taken outside first for a couple of hours, increasing every day, bringing them up to a day at the time of transplantation. In this case, it is necessary to protect the plants from drafts.

Seedlings are ready for transplanting at the age of 6-9 weeks. Two weeks before transplanting, the soil is fertilized and dug up. The seedlings are removed from the containers along with a lump of earth and moved into a hole, which is filled with soil and thoroughly moistened. 4-6 Flyashen tomato bushes are planted per 1 m2.

A little history

The tomato is the fruit of a perennial nightshade plant called tomato.

This word and the plant itself came to Russia from France, and to France from Italy, presumably in the 16th century. In Italy, the plants were called pomo d'oro - “golden apple” and they were yellow-sunny in color, because this is how the Mays and Aztecs grew them, believing that “tomatli” were sent to them by the solar goddess of medicine, health and healing - Ishtilton (Ichtilton) .

The Spaniards, who introduced Europe to this golden berry after 1520, introduced it as “pomidel de Peru” - “apple from Peru.” The loving French gave the “apple” its own name, which the Russians also used for a long time - “une pomme d’amour” - “love apple”.

Both the French and the Spaniards used tomatoes as a remedy for coughs and as a powerful remedy for increasing potency, but frequent consumption of la mela d'oro (“golden apple” - Italian), according to scientists of that time, threatened death.

Such a gift for anyone's heart!

In 1780, new fruits from Italy were served at the table of Catherine the Second, most of which were “golden apples”. The empress liked the new fruit so much that by the greatest decree it was ordered to plant this vegetable for the imperial table and the process of Russification of the Italian “love” berry took on unprecedented proportions.

Oh, the queen didn’t know that tomatoes had long been settled on the outskirts of the Russian Empire as a medicinal vegetable, and Crimeans, Astrakhan, Georgians and other southerners had long mastered the methods of growing French-Italian berries!

By the middle of the 19th century, the area under cultivation of tomatoes developed in Russia was several times larger than the modest beds of all those countries through which the tomato passed to become “in the board” for Russians.

So who is Senor Tomato? By definition, it is a fruit. In the everyday consciousness - a vegetable. According to biological classification - berry. And this fruit and vegetable has long become the king of our greenhouses and gardens!

What varieties of tomatoes does the 21st century offer us?

Description of the Kokhava F1 tomato: advantages and cultivation techniques

The Kokhava F1 tomato, bred by Russian breeders, belongs to the first generation hybrids. The variety is characterized by high yield, early fruit ripening, and immunity to diseases of nightshade crops.

Advantages of a hybrid

The characteristics and description of the Kokhava variety indicate very early fruit ripening. Return from the bush occurs 85-90 days after emergence. The plant is intended for cultivation in closed ground conditions and is suitable for extended crop rotation.

The bush has medium-sized dark green leaves and a strong root system. The plant is vegetative, the first inflorescence is formed at the level of the 7th leaf.

Thanks to the improved parameters of the hybrid, tomatoes are resistant to late blight. In this case, damage to the crop by biological pests cannot be ruled out. Therefore, if traces of pests are found on the trunk and leaves, the bushes should be treated with a weak solution of potassium permanganate.

The downside of the culture is that it is impossible to obtain seeds from the hybrid for cultivation next season. With proper care of the crop, the Kokhava tomato bears fruit until late autumn.

Cultivation technique

The tomato is a hybrid, so the seeds must be purchased from a specialty store. Before planting, it is necessary to prepare a soil mixture and treat the seed with a solution of potassium permanganate.

This event is aimed at preventing crop disease and improving plant immunity. The seeds are planted to a depth of 2 cm. The container with planting material is watered with water from a spray bottle and covered with film until the seedlings hatch.

In the phase of formation of the first true leaf, the plant is planted in order to strengthen the root system. The culture is transferred to a permanent place at the age of 55 days. To obtain an early harvest, the crop is planted in a heated greenhouse.

Caring for the plant involves regular irrigation, loosening the soil and periodic application of complex fertilizers according to the manufacturer’s scheme.

Recommendations and opinions of vegetable growers

Kokhava F1 tomatoes, reviews of which among vegetable growers indicate the popularity of the variety, are resistant to tobacco mosaic virus, leaf curl, and cladosporiosis. The practice of cultivating the plant has proven that the yield per 1 m² in an extended rotation of crops can reach 32-34 kg.

Mikhail Dobrolyubov, 58 years old, Borisovo:

“Last year, on the recommendation of relatives, I grew the Kokhava variety at the dacha. I note the high productivity of the plant. From 1 bush we managed to collect 29 kg of tomatoes. A cluster of rich red fruits, like the one in the photo of the packet of seeds. The tomatoes are dense, the flesh is juicy and aromatic, they are perfectly stored for a long time, and are easily transported over distances.”

Irina Filimonova, 52 years old, Pavlovskaya Sloboda:

“I have been interested in growing tomatoes for many years, so I often plant new varieties on the plot

The Kokhava hybrid attracted attention with the shape and rich scarlet color of the fruit. I grew the seedlings myself from seeds purchased at a specialized point of sale.

I separately placed 2 pieces in prepared small pots with soil. seeds, covering with a 1.5 cm ball of soil.

Watered with a sprinkler. Cover the tops of the pots with film and place them in a warm place until the seeds hatch. When 1 leaf appeared, I picked it. The fully formed seedlings were transferred in mid-May. Caring for the plant, applying fertilizer, and mulching the soil made it possible to remove 30 kg of tasty, aromatic fruits from the bush. They keep well in a dark place for a long time and retain their flavor.”

Features of cultivation

The hybrid variety of early ripeness has its own characteristics. It must be fed regularly using mineral fertilizers. If you do not fertilize often enough, the fruits will ripen with a delay. In addition, the Mona Lisa variety is sensitive to too much nitrogen in the soil - the plant grows (an active growth of green mass occurs), but tomatoes do not form.

To reap a rich harvest, you need to follow these simple recommendations:

  1. Seeds are sown for seedlings in the second ten days of March.
  2. After the seeds germinate, you need to ensure that the air temperature is about 18 degrees.
  3. It is recommended to use an agricultural lamp for illumination.
  4. Tomato seedlings must be fertilized with mineral fertilizers.
  5. When two true leaves appear, the bushes are transplanted into separate containers.
  6. It is imperative to harden and ventilate the seedlings.
  7. Tomato bushes should be moved to a permanent location after the spring frosts have subsided.
  8. The bushes are formed into two stems.
  9. The plant must be tied up.
  10. Seedlings are placed according to a 40x50 cm pattern (no more than eight bushes should be located per square meter).
  11. The soil is mulched with rotted sawdust.
  12. Be sure to tie up the brushes and stems.
  13. From time to time the bushes need to be pruned.
  14. Apply mineral fertilizers following the manufacturer's instructions.
  15. Water moderately in the morning, avoiding water getting on the stem and leaves.
  16. Remove weeds regularly.
  17. Collect fruits in a timely manner.

Before cool nights set in (in the central regions this occurs in mid-August), it is necessary to remove the tomatoes from the bushes and leave them to ripen indoors.

Tips for growing the variety

Those who grew Dunn's culture claim that to get a high yield, you should adhere to the following rules:

  1. To obtain full-fledged seedlings, it is necessary to sow the seeds quite densely.
  2. When 2 true leaves are formed on the seedlings, strong, well-developed plants are selected and picked.
  3. Seedlings are planted in open ground only after frost has passed.
  4. The area for tomatoes should be well lit and protected from northern winds.
  5. Planting pattern 40x60 cm.
  6. During growth, plants are fed with root and foliar complex fertilizers.

Reviews from gardeners indicate that tomatoes do not require pinching or support. For the development of the plant, timely watering, weeding and loosening of the tree trunk are carried out.

“Danna has been planting tomatoes for several years in a row. I liked this variety for its low bushes, on which the fruits were compactly collected. The yield was also encouraging. From each bush I collected about 3 kg of tomatoes. The tomatoes are tasty, beautiful in appearance, and very good for preparing canned whole fruits and salads.” N. G. Apt

Tomato Nina: description from the manufacturer Partner

The variety is mid-season, semi-determinate, and belongs to the beef tomato type. From germination to the first harvest it takes about 100 days. The first inflorescence is formed above the 9th leaf, the subsequent ones after 3. The racemes are semi-complex and complex. The fruits are flat-round in shape, with an extravagant appearance, pronounced high-relief ribbing; the resulting lobes are similar to each other and completely envelop the tomato from the stalk to the top.

Tomatoes have a deep red bright color. The flesh has an even richer color and appears crimson-red. The seed chambers are small, the central part of the pulp is large, so the tomato is fleshy, fully ripe on the bush, juicy, fragrant, very beautiful. The taste is excellent: sweet with a slight pleasant sourness and a real smell of tomatoes.

It is advisable to form the plant into 2 stems.
