Reviews
Ekaterina Avdeeva, 29 years old, Astrakhan
“I really liked the variety for its attractive appearance. I grew it into 5 bushes at once. The height of each was 2 meters. I can classify P-20 Beauty King as a mid-late but productive variety. The fruits grew very strong, fleshy inside. The taste is sourish-sweet, not for everyone. I use it both for salads and for canning.”
Nina Olegovna, 61 years old

Growing Tomato
To plant the seeds of this plant, you need to prepare the soil, which should be neutral. Planting of the seed fund is carried out approximately 2 months before the planned planting of seedlings in a garden plot or in a greenhouse.
After planting the seeds in the boxes, they are watered, and the container is transferred to a room with a suitable temperature. After the sprouts appear, you need to wait for 1-2 leaves to develop, and then make a pick. This operation is combined with the treatment of seedlings with a growth stimulant. The best results were shown by the “Vympel” type stimulator. It allows you to increase the immunity of sprouts by 40% and optimizes the absorption of mineral fertilizers by seedlings.
When transferring young plants to the soil of a greenhouse or to a garden bed, fertilize them with “Oracle” microfertilizers. Since the plant stretches in length, the bushes require support to supports or trellises. If this is not done, the stems may break off under the weight of the grown fruits. It is recommended to plant no more than 4 bushes per 1 m².
Watering plants should be done with warm water. It is necessary to loosen the soil under the stems to eliminate weeds and apply fertilizers to the soil in a timely manner. To do this, at the first stage of bush growth, they are fed with nitrogenous fertilizers, and when the ovary appears, they are transferred to potassium and phosphorus fertilizers. If they are not available, then you can use organic natural fertilizers, for example, manure, peat.
To protect the bushes from fungal and microbial infections, tomato leaves are sprayed with appropriate chemicals. When plants are attacked by garden pests, it is necessary to treat the stems and leaves with folk remedies (soap solution) or use chemicals designed to control insects.
The variety requires planting in well-prepared, neutral soil. Read how to prepare soil for tomatoes here. Planting seeds for seedlings should be carried out 55-60 days before the planned date of planting the seedlings in the ground.
Picking is carried out when 1-3 true leaves appear. Combine the picking with treatment with the growth stimulator “Vympel”. It will increase the immunity of seedlings and optimize the absorption of mineral fertilizers.
When planting on ridges and in a greenhouse, fertilize with the Oracle microfertilizer complex. Water seedlings and plants with warm water, at the root of the bush, trying to prevent drops from getting on the leaves.
The King of Beauty tomato bushes planted on your plot will not show outstanding results, but will give a stable harvest in any weather conditions, delighting you with original, two-color tomatoes.

Tall, mid-season, exotic tomato variety.
Bush of indeterminate type, powerful, with large leaves, up to 2 meters high. In open ground a little lower - 1-1.2 meters. A garter to a support or trellis and pinning is required. We recommend forming the plant into 2 stems.
A medium-yielding variety, but with stunningly beautiful and tasty fruits. The tomatoes are fleshy, sweet, slightly sour. Fruit weight is 200-300 grams.
As the tomato ripens, it becomes brighter and redder.
In many catalogs this variety goes under the name Beauty King. Among bicolor tomatoes, it is not the most delicious, but definitely the most beautiful variety.
