Figs pink

The fifth variety on my list is Pink Fig. Manufactured by Gavrish. A very large-fruited and tasty variety. The first fruits weighed 350 grams, very sweet. It can be planted both in greenhouses and in open ground.

Dad

In sixth place on my list is a variety called Batyanya. Beginning gardeners can safely plant on their plots in open ground and indoors. The variety is reliable and stable, and most importantly with high taste. The weight of the fruit is 300-350 grams, the fruits are aligned and neat, beautiful and tasty.

Truffle

The seventh variety is Truffle. It is produced by different manufacturers, Siberian Garden and Altai Seeds. This wonderful tomato is good when pickled.

Mazarin

The eighth variety on my list is a tomato called Mazarin. It has also been on the market for quite a long time, and this variety has a lot of fans. This is a large-fruited juicy variety. And most importantly, these tomatoes are resistant to heat and are perfectly grown both in open ground and in greenhouses.

Anniversary Tarasenko

The ninth tomato on my list is a hybrid variety called Yubileiny Tarasenko, a very interesting tomato. One brush can contain up to 30 fruits. Delicious with a real strong tomato flavour, and very sweet. The beautiful one performed well in salads and fresh.

Koenigsbergs

The tenths on my list are two tomatoes, pink Königsberg and golden Königsberg. These pink and golden Koenigsberg also received the highest tasting rating and are intended for cultivation both in open and closed ground. A determinate variety, its characteristic features are soft, fleshy, juicy, with sweet flesh. An excellent tomato with good taste and heat resistance.

The best frost-resistant varieties

Tomato seeds "Spiridonovsky"

This is one of the shortest varieties in our review of the best tomatoes - it reaches a maximum height of 45-50 cm. However, it is characterized by serious spreading, so it needs a lot of free space. It has a thick and strong stem and small leaves, colored dark green. The yield is average, but on one bush all the fruits ripen at approximately the same time. One of the main positive qualities of this variety is its excellent frost resistance - the bush will develop well even at a temperature of +7-10 degrees, it also perfectly resists almost all diseases and does not need additional feeding.

The fruits are round, almost not ribbed, their maximum weight is about 100 grams, but you can grow a specimen weighing up to 200 and even up to 250 grams. Fully ripened fruits are bright red in color and have a rich tomato taste with pronounced sourness. When growing this variety, you should carefully monitor the soil moisture, avoiding its excessive increase, as this can ultimately lead to cracking of the fruit. Well suited for fresh consumption and canning.

Advantages:

  • Does not require stepsoning;
  • Withstands strong temperature changes well;
  • Resists diseases and pests.

Flaws:

  • You will have to monitor soil moisture very carefully.

Tomato seeds "Spiridonovsky"

Tomato seeds "Lemon Giant"

This is a rather exotic variety in terms of the appearance of the fruit. They are painted bright yellow, have a beautiful and large shape, and a pleasant taste. The bushes are tall, so they need to be tied up. The ripening period is average, the bushes can be grown both in open ground and in a greenhouse - in the first case, the fruits are somewhat smaller, but significantly more of them are formed on one plant. There are not too many leaves on the bushes. In greenhouse conditions, the height of plants can reach 2.5 meters, so they should be molded. In open soil they turn out lower, but you still can’t do without molding. With good care, the weight of one fruit can reach 900 grams.

The skin of the fruit is strong, but not too thick, very elastic - the plants are not afraid of excessive watering, the tomatoes will not crack even with a significant amount of moisture. They can be picked from the bush even when unripe: they will ripen at home, and this will not in the least affect their taste characteristics. Plants can withstand low temperatures and significant changes well. They contain approximately the same amount of carotene as carrots and a high percentage of vitamin C.

Advantages:

  • Large fruits;
  • With proper care, high productivity is ensured;
  • Good nutritional value;
  • Withstands long-term transportation;
  • Plants practically do not get sick.

Flaws:

  • It is required to follow the watering and feeding regime;
  • Soil fertility must also be acceptable to ensure high yields.

Tomato seeds "Lemon Giant"

Tomato seeds Snegirek

This variety is distinguished by its insignificant height - the bushes grow to a maximum of 40 cm. The fruits are red in color and round in shape with a maximum weight of 200 grams at the first level, and up to 180 grams at subsequent levels. No pinning required. It develops at temperatures from 0 degrees, even in these conditions the yield is quite high, especially with good sunlight. The crop does not develop top and root rot and is perfect for growing on a balcony, in a greenhouse and in open ground.

Seeds can be planted even in soil unprotected from frost - the main thing is that it is well fertilized. For this variety, it is advisable to fertilize the soil with humus, cow or horse manure in the fall. When growing seedlings at home, after the appearance of two leaves, the plant needs to be pruned; during plant growth, it is necessary to additionally feed it with products containing potassium and phosphorus.

Advantages:

  • Ideally withstand low temperatures;
  • Good yield;
  • Minimum leaves.

Flaws:

  • Not detected.

Tomato seeds Snegirek

The most unusual varieties of tomatoes

Some of these varieties can withstand the harsh climate of the Urals very well, so why are they worth planting?

Brad's Atomic Grape

First of all, he is simply handsome! And for this alone he is worth imprisoning.

New selection from Brad Gates in 2016. Mid-season, tall, exotic variety of indeterminate type for greenhouses and open ground, 1.8 meters high, in open ground lower. The fruits are plum-shaped, ranging in size from large grapes to plums, with a fruity, sweet taste. Disease resistant

Reviews on foreign websites say that they take a long time to ripen, but they last well after harvesting in the fall at low temperatures with a small percentage of spoilage. They do not fall off the bush, but it can be difficult to understand when it is ripe. The taste is described as fantastic.

It is interesting that on our websites this variety is described as mid-season, on foreign websites as late. I will plant it in two trunks and try to plant it both in a greenhouse and in open ground for comparison.

Heart of Ashgabat (Heart Ashgabat)

I love hearty tomatoes)

An ancient variety, first mentioned in the 60s in the Turkmen SSR, since then the number of fans of the variety has been steadily growing.

Mid-early variety, semi-determinate, standard, height 110-140 cm, from the moment of planting to the ripening of the first fruits you need to wait 100-110 days. Resistant to fungal diseases, high yield, tasty, few seeds. Sensitive to light and thermal conditions, demanding of fertilizing. The weight of the fruit is 400-600 grams, they are stored for a long time and are well stored. It sets well even in extreme heat; I think in our conditions it needs to be placed in protected ground.

Irish liqueur

Tall, mid-early, productive, indeterminate (1-1.2 meters) variety. Fruit weight is 200-250 grams (can reach 400 grams),

Very tasty, sugary, sweet. It is better if these tomatoes are allowed to ripen on the bush.

It is demanding on garter and temperature conditions, does not lie well, does not like excess moisture. For protected ground.

I would like to clarify that almost all green-fruited varieties do not store well and they are more likely for fresh consumption, because... in processing they spread. Although it can be used for juice.

Wolford Wonder

Another beautiful, hearty tomato)

Tall (up to 2 meters), mid-season, indeterminate. The fruits weigh 200-300 grams, juicy, sweet, have few seeds, bear fruit well until frost. Lays well, perfect for thick juices and sauces. Demanding of nutritious soil and a sunny place, thermophilic.

Purple Fairy / or Purple Prudence

Indeterminate (up to 2 meters and above), early, fruit weight 60-100 grams, dense, tasty, marmalade-like (good for pickling), bears fruit until frost. A productive variety for greenhouses and open ground.

Rosella

Indeterminate (up to 1.3 m), mid-season. Fruits are 150-300 grams or more. Golden with blush. Meaty, sweet. Demanding on warmth and light. He's just wonderful)

Paul Robeson

Brought out by Russian breeders despite the foreign name. Stores well, tasty, sweet, meaty. High-yielding, disease-resistant, it is better to grow in two trunks.

By the way: black tomatoes are suitable for those who are allergic to red ones.

Indeterminate, weight up to 500 grams, the skin is dense, which guarantees the absence of cracks and deformation of the fruit.

Brad's Black Heart

And again a hearty tomato)

Indeterminate, tall variety (1.80 m).

Tolerates temperature changes well and is unpretentious. The fruits ripen well after being picked from the bush, weight 200-300 grams, but can reach a weight of 1 kg, very productive. Fleshy, dense, sweet with exotic notes, good for juices and sauces.

Nature's Riddle

Indeterminate (from 1.5 m to 2 m), fruits weighing from 300 to 800 grams, sweet, yellow on top - pink inside, thin skin. Russian selection. Good for sauces, juice. A very productive variety.

The most beautiful magical variety, I have already planted it and will continue to plant it)

Grandma Viney's Yellow and Pink

Indeterminate (1.2-1.5 meters), beautiful, very productive, very tasty, honey-like. The weight of the fruits is 300-500 grams, I grow them in a greenhouse. It is better to plant on the sunny side

This is already my favorite tomato - I will be growing it for the second year and I am sure that I will continue to grow it in the future.

Tomato

Tomato, or tomato

(lat. Solánum lycopérsicum) is an annual or perennial herbaceous plant, a species of the genus Solanum (Solanum) of the Solanaceae family. It is cultivated as a vegetable crop. The difference between scientific and everyday (culinary) ideas about fruits, berries, fruits, and vegetables in the case of tomatoes (as well as some other plants, for example, cucumbers) leads to confusion. Tomatoes are the fruits of tomatoes; from a botanical point of view, they are multilocular syncarpous berries. In English there is no difference between the terms fruit and fruit. In 1893, the U.S. Supreme Court unanimously held that tomatoes should be considered vegetables for purposes of customs duties because they were served for lunch and not for dessert (although the court noted that, botanically, tomatoes are fruits). ).

Name

The name "tomato" comes from Italian. pomo d'oro - "golden apple". The word "tomato" comes from the Aztec name for the plant "tomatl" via the French tomate. At the moment, in Russian both names have equal rights.

Biological features

The tomato has a highly developed tap-type root system. The roots are branched, grow and form quickly. They go into the ground to great depths (with seedless crops up to 1 m or more), spreading in diameter by 1.5-2.5 m. In the presence of moisture and nutrition, additional roots can form on any part of the stem, so tomatoes can be propagated not only seeds, but also cuttings and side shoots (stepchildren). Placed in water, they form roots within a few days. The stem of a tomato is erect or lodging, branching, with a height of 30 cm to 2 m or more. The leaves are imparipinnate, dissected into large lobes, sometimes potato-type. The flowers are small, inconspicuous, yellow of various shades, collected in a brush. The tomato is a facultative self-pollinator: one flower contains male and female organs. The fruits are juicy multi-locular berries of various shapes (from flat-round to cylindrical; they can be small (weight up to 50 g), medium (51-100 g) and large (over 100 g, sometimes up to 800 g or more). Fruit color varies from pale pink to bright red and crimson, from white, light green, light yellow to golden yellow.

Based on the structure of the bush, the thickness of the stem and the nature of the leaves, 3 varieties of tomatoes are distinguished: non-standard, standard, potato

Composition of tomato fruits

Tomato fruits are distinguished by high nutritional, taste and dietary qualities. The calorie content of ripe fruits (energy value) is 19 kcal. They contain 4.5-8.1% dry matter, half of which is sugar, mainly glucose and fructose, as well as organic acids (3.5-8.5%), fiber (0.87-1.7% ). The fruits also contain proteins (0.6-1.1%), pectin (up to 0.3%), starch (0.07-0.3%), and minerals (0.6%). Tomato fruits contain a high content of carotenoids (phytoene, neurosporin, lycopene, non-alicopine, carotene (0.8-1.2 mg/100 g wet weight), lycosanthin, lycophyllum), vitamins (B1, B2, B3, B5), folic and ascorbic acid (15-45 mg/100 g wet weight), organic (citric, malic, oxalic, tartaric, succinic, glycolic), high-molecular fatty (palmitic, stearic, linoleic) and phenolcarboxylic (p-coumaric, caffeic, ferulic) acids . Anthocyanins, stearins, triterpene saponins, and abscisic acid were found in the fruits. The choline present in tomatoes lowers cholesterol in the blood, prevents fatty degeneration of the liver, increases the body’s immune properties, and promotes the formation of hemoglobin.

Content of trace elements in 1 kg of fruit: sodium - 40 mg, potassium - 2680 mg, calcium - 110 mg, magnesium - 120 mg, iron - 6 mg, copper - 0.97 mg, phosphorus - 270 mg, sulfur - 140 mg, chlorine - 400 mg, manganese - 1.89 mg.

Classification

Currently, there are several classifications of tomatoes. In Russia, the traditional Brezhnev classification has been adopted. In the traditional classification, tomatoes are considered members of the genus Lycopersicon Tourn. In 1964, the Soviet plant breeder D. D. Brezhnev identified three species in the genus Lycopersicon:

  • Peruvian tomato Lycopersicon peruvianum Brezhnev
  • hairy tomato Lycopersicon hirsutum Humb. et Bonpl.
  • common tomato Lycopersicon esculentum Mill.

The most complete classification of the genus Lycopersicon is the classification of the American professor C. Rick (CMRick; 1915-2002), who described 9 species of tomatoes:

  • Lycopersicon cheesmanii
    ,
  • Lycopersicon chilense
    ,
  • Lycopersicon chmielewskii
    ,
  • Lycopersicon esculentum
    ,
  • Lycopersicon hirsutum
    ,
  • Lycopersicon parviflorum
    ,
  • Lycopersicon pennellii
    ,
  • Lycopersicon peruvianum
    ,
  • Lycopersicon pimpinellifolium
    .

Modern botanists who adhere to the phylogenetic approach consider the genus Lycopersicon to be paraphyletic, on the basis of which tomatoes are assigned to the genus Nightshade (Solanum). In connection with this approach, the same plants have synonymous names:

Russian nameTraditional classificationAPG Classification II
Common tomatoLycopersicon esculentumSolanum lycopersicum
Peruvian tomatoLycopersicon peruvianumSolanum peruvianum
Currant tomatoLycopersicon esculentum ssp. pimpinellifolium Solanum pimpinellifolium

In practice, gardeners continue to use traditional names, while in strictly botanical literature the second option is used.

Tomato varieties

Tomato varieties are characterized according to various criteria:

  • By type of bush growth - deterministic and indeterminate
  • By ripening time - early, mid-ripening, late
  • By method of use - table food, for canning, for juice production, etc.

The most common varieties are non-standard tomatoes, which have thin stems lying under the weight of the fruits and large, slightly corrugated leaves; bushes can be either dwarf or tall. There are quite numerous varieties of standard tomatoes. The stems of the plants are thick, the leaves are medium-sized, with short petioles and closely spaced lobes, strongly corrugated; few stepchildren are formed. The bushes are compact - from dwarf to medium-sized. Semi-standard tomato varieties have been developed that occupy an intermediate position between these groups. There are very few varieties of the potato type, named for the similarity of its leaves to potato leaves.

According to the type of bush growth, tomato varieties are divided into determinate (low-growing) and indeterminate (tall). In determinate varieties, the main stem and lateral shoots stop growing after the formation of 2-6, sometimes more, clusters on the stem. The stem and all shoots end in a flower raceme. Stepchildren are formed only in the lower part of the stem. The bush is small or medium in size (60-180 cm). In addition to typically determinate varieties, superdeterministic varieties are also distinguished, in which plants stop growing after the formation of 2-3 clusters on the main stem (all shoots end in inflorescences and form a highly branched small bush; the second wave of growth is noted after the ripening of most of the fruits; the first inflorescence is formed at a height of 7- 8th leaf), as well as semi-deterministic plants, the plants of which are characterized by stronger, almost unlimited growth - they form 8-10 clusters on one stem. In indeterminate tomato varieties, plant growth is unlimited. The main stem ends in a floral raceme (the first raceme is formed above the 9-12th leaf), and the stepson, growing from the axil of the leaf closest to the apical raceme, continues the growth of the main stem. After the formation of several leaves, the stepson ends its growth by laying a flower bud, and the growth of the plant continues at the expense of the nearest stepson. This happens until the end of the growing season, which usually ends with the first autumn frost. The bush is tall (2 m or more), but the rate of flowering and fruit formation is lower than that of determinate varieties of tomatoes, and is extended. In Russia, among non-specialists, such varieties of tomatoes as “bull’s heart”, “lady fingers”, and others are widely known. Cherry tomatoes have become widespread in the last decade.

Usage

Tomato today is one of the most popular crops due to its valuable nutritional and dietary qualities, a wide variety of varieties, and high responsiveness to the growing techniques used. It is cultivated in open ground, under film covers, in greenhouses, greenhouses, on balconies, loggias and even in rooms on window sills.

Tomato fruits are eaten fresh, boiled, fried, canned, tomato paste, tomato puree, tomato juice, ketchup and other sauces, and lecho are prepared from them. Cold tomato soups are popular in Spain - gazpacho, salmorejo. In the former USSR, it is customary to pickle tomatoes for the winter (see pickled tomatoes).

Dried tomatoes, which are added to soups (such as prunes), are richest in lycopene and other nutrients. In 4-10 days of drying in the sun, cherry tomatoes lose 88% of their weight, and large-fruited tomatoes lose up to 93%. To get a kilogram of dried tomatoes, you need from 8 to 14 kg of fresh fruit.

Usage history

The homeland of tomatoes is South America, where wild and semi-cultivated forms of tomato are still found.

Aztec use

In the middle of the 16th century, the tomato came to Spain and Portugal, and then to France, Italy and other European countries. For a long time, tomatoes were considered inedible and even poisonous. European gardeners bred them as an exotic ornamental plant. The earliest recipe for a tomato dish was published in a cookbook in Naples in 1692, with the author citing that the recipe originated in Spain.

In the 18th century, the tomato came to Russia, where it was also initially cultivated as an ornamental plant, since the berries did not ripen completely. The plant was recognized as a vegetable food crop thanks to the Russian agronomist A.T. Bolotov, who managed to achieve full ripeness of tomatoes using the seedling method of cultivation and the ripening method.

Agricultural technology

Tomato is a heat-demanding crop; the optimal temperature for plant growth and development is 22-25 °C: at temperatures below 10 °C, the pollen in the flowers does not ripen and the unfertilized ovary disappears. Tomato does not tolerate high air humidity, but requires a lot of water for fruit growth. Tomato plants are demanding of light. With its deficiency, the development of plants is delayed, the leaves turn pale, the resulting buds fall off, and the stems become very elongated. Supplemental lighting during the seedling period improves the quality of seedlings and increases plant productivity.

When applying organic and mineral fertilizers and maintaining the soil in a loose state, tomato can grow on any (except very acidic) soils. The main elements of mineral nutrition for tomatoes, as for other plants, are nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium. Tomato especially needs nitrogen during the period of intensive fruit growth, however, an excess of nitrogen is undesirable, since this leads to a strong increase in vegetative mass (the so-called fattening of plants) to the detriment of fruiting, as well as intensive accumulation of nitrates in fruits. With a lack of phosphorus, tomato plants poorly absorb nitrogen, as a result of which their growth stops, the formation and ripening of fruits is delayed, the leaves become blue-green, then grayish, and the stems become lilac-brown in color. Phosphorus is especially necessary for tomatoes at the beginning of the growing season. Assimilated by plants during this period, it is then used to form fruits. Tomato consumes more potassium than nitrogen and phosphorus. Plants especially need it during fruit growth. If there is a deficiency of this element, yellow-brown dots will appear along the edges of the leaves, they begin to curl and then die. Tomatoes also need microelements that affect the growth and development of plants: manganese, boron, copper, magnesium, sulfur, etc. They are applied in the form of microfertilizers.

Seeds

Tomatoes are sown in greenhouses in winter, with the expectation that a month after the 2nd planting they can be planted directly in the ground, without fear of frost, or in semi-cold greenhouses. If planted very early, plants may be ready to be transplanted into the ground at a time when the soil is not ready for this, and the plants remaining in the greenhouse, being closely spaced, begin to stretch out and turn pale, becoming too sensitive to temperature changes. In view of this, planting time must be strictly coordinated with local climatic conditions. In case of frost, plants must be covered with old boxes, matting or mats.

During the first period of seedling growth in a warm greenhouse, you only have to monitor the ventilation of the greenhouse and protecting the seedlings from weeds and pests. 3-4 weeks after sowing, when the second pair of leaves with teeth appears, they begin the first picking, replanting it in a warm greenhouse, but with a large layer of soil; The picking itself is done in the same way as with cabbage, and up to 300 plants are planted under the frame if there is a second picking, or only up to 200 if the plants are subsequently planted directly into the ground, without a second picking. In the second greenhouse, the ventilation of the latter is monitored not only to avoid dampness and mold, but also to harden the plants.

A month after the first picking, when the plants begin to crowd each other too closely, they begin the second picking, moving the plants more freely (no more than 200 plants per frame), raising the greenhouse box and covering the plants less and less with frames in order to accustom the plants to outside air. The final replanting into the ground is carried out approximately a month after the 2nd picking, when there is no longer any danger of frost. In cases where they want to get earlier fruits, for example, in early or mid-June, sowing in greenhouses is done as early as possible and three picks are made before planting in the ground.

Plants from greenhouses are transplanted into pots, and they are kept in open greenhouse boxes, covered with matting only at night and when the temperature drops. The final replanting of soil from pots is carried out without disturbing the clod of earth and burying it in pre-prepared holes. Using pots allows the gardener not to rush into replanting and wait for the most likely favorable time, since the plants continue to develop properly in pots. As for the location for tomatoes, they love lighted, dry, well-irrigated soil. The tomato does not tolerate fresh fertilizer and is susceptible to potato disease; Tomatoes work well after cabbage that has received rich fertilizer. Tomatoes are planted in rows; close planting is harmful in all respects. Immediately after planting, the plants are watered, and this watering is continued until the plants are established.

Early in the post-planting period, when nights are still cool, watering after sunset should be avoided, as this would cause the ground to cool even more. Along the entire plantation, furrows are made to irrigate the plants. Tomatoes are content with irrigation, and the plants themselves need to be watered from a watering can only during extremely severe droughts, and only once or twice a summer. With the further growth of plants, it is necessary to tie up and trim the plants (trellis method of propagation), which promotes uniform illumination of the plants, better ventilation, and, consequently, more abundant and earlier ripening of fruits. After pruning the plant in such a way that only 2-3 strong shoots remain, the intermediate ones are removed, the tomatoes are tied either to trellises (lattices, wires, etc.) or to stakes, and it should be observed that each stem develops completely freely . Further care involves removing fatty shoots and adjusting the supports.


Tomato harvesting is completed before the onset of cold nights. Temperatures of +8° are already detrimental to fruits. If the temperature drops even lower, the fruits even when picked rot, before they have time to ripen. Therefore, it is better to remove them from the bushes when they are brown or even green. This speeds up the filling of the remaining ovary. Ripening is carried out in boxes, where the fruits are placed in 2-3 layers. It is useful to put a few red tomatoes in the box: they emit ethylene gas, which accelerates the ripening of green tomatoes. By choosing red fruits from the boxes, the ripening period for the remaining fruits is delayed (this is exactly what they do during long-term storage). Harvest fruits once a week

Pests, diseases and methods of controlling them

Pests of tomatoes are mole crickets, black sciarid mosquitoes, greenhouse whiteflies, potato aphids and some other insects: (cotton bollworm, Colorado potato beetle).

Tomato diseases can be caused by excess or deficiency of nitrogen, potassium, phosphorus, or fungi and viruses:

  • late blight
  • mosaic (Nicotiana virus J. virus)
  • bronze leaves (Lycopersicum virus)
  • root rot (caused by the fungus Thielaviopsis basicola)
  • Rhizoctonia fruit rot (fungus Rhizoctonia solani Kuehn.)
  • pink rot of fruits (fungus Fusarium gibbosum App. et Wr.)
  • gray mold (fungus Botrytis cinerea Pers.)
  • stem rot of tomatoes (fungus Didymella lycopersici)
  • phomosis (brown rot; fungus Phoma destructiva Plowr.)
  • fusarium wilt (fungus Fusarium oxysporum f. lycopersici.)
  • anthraciasis (fungus Colletotrichum atramentarium (Berk. et Br.) Taub.)
  • white rot (Sclerotinia sclerotiorum fungus)
  • brown leaf spot, cladosporiosis, or leaf mold (fungus Cladosporium fulvum Cooke.)
  • verticillium wilt (fungi Verticillium albo-atrum and V. dahliae)

There are also diseases of various natures, manifested in cracking of fruits and curling of tomato leaves.

Monuments

In Kamenka-Dneprovskaya Zaporozhye region (Ukraine) a monument “Glory to the tomato” was erected

The best varieties of tomatoes for making sauces

Well, who doesn't love homemade tomato sauce? So fragrant, sweet and spicy! But preparing everything strictly according to the recipe is not the guarantee of a delicious homemade tomato sauce. You also need to choose the right fruits. Many people mistakenly believe that any ripe tomatoes can be used to make sauce, but this is not true. The right variety of tomatoes can make the sauce truly unique. Let's talk about these varieties.

Grandma's secret

Mid-season variety for open ground. The bush is indeterminate, about 160–180 cm high. The variety is characterized by long-term fruiting, and the last fruits can be picked almost before frost. By the way, if you pick the unripe ones, they will be able to lie and gradually ripen until the New Year. The fruits are bright crimson in color and round in shape. The weight of each of them can reach 600 - 700 g. The pulp is fleshy, juicy and very sweet. On the rift it sparkles like a ripe watermelon. The sauces from these tomatoes are thick and aromatic, the main thing is to process the fully ripened fruits.

Bull's heart

This is probably everyone's favorite classic. Mid-season variety for open ground and greenhouses. The bush is quite powerful and spreading, up to 140 cm high. The fruits are pink (but other colors are also found in hybrid analogues of this variety), heart-shaped, very large - 0.85 - 1 kg. The pulp is very sweet and juicy, the seed chambers are small with a small number of seeds. This variety is great not only for making sauces and tomato pastes, but also for fresh salads.

Mazarin

Mid-early variety for growing in greenhouses. The bushes are very tall (more than 2 m), indeterminate, and need timely pinching, otherwise you can end up with an “impenetrable jungle” in the greenhouse. The fruits are quite large (weight up to 450 - 500 g), heart-shaped, rich red in color. The pulp is slightly lighter than the skin, with excellent taste and high dry matter content. The sauces made from these tomatoes are thick, with a rich taste and aroma.

Mashenka

A good variety of mid-season tomatoes for the greenhouse. In the southern regions, cultivation in open ground is allowed. The bushes reach 2 meters in height, indeterminate, spreading. It is worth noting that this variety is resistant to most nightshade diseases and also stoically tolerates sudden temperature changes. The fruits are quite large - 420 - 550 g. The shape is round, the color is red. Their pulp is juicy, dense, sugary. These tomatoes make an excellent base for sauces and dressings.

In principle, all varieties of tomatoes with fleshy, sweet pulp and relatively thin skin are suitable for making sauces.

Late ripening

It is impossible to delay the sowing of seeds of such varieties; the ripening period is delayed up to 4 months (about 130 days). If you do not have time to harvest, frost will kill it. For this reason, it is better to use a greenhouse for growing. Late-ripening tomatoes are high-growing; the plant requires time to grow stems and leaves. Among the late species demanded by gardeners are:

  1. Vladimir F1
  2. Date fruit
  3. Titanium
  4. Bull's heart

Important! The length of the growing season affects the level of yield. Early and ultra-early tomato varieties will produce less fruit.

Important! Determination is laid down at the genetic level. Growth is limited by the appearance of the first flower cluster that will bear fruit.

  • How much time do you plan to spend on caring for the plant? Tomatoes are capricious crops. Tying, shaping, pinning takes a lot of energy. If you don’t have enough time for careful care, but you really want to get a high yield, choose ones that don’t require pinching and are low-growing tomatoes.
  • Where will you grow? Not all brands of tomatoes are capable of producing high yields outdoors. If the greenhouse is not built, then indeterminate species are definitely not suitable. Stop choosing determinant, superdeterminant. If you have a closed space and space for beds, you can choose capricious types of tomatoes and universal ones.
  • Don’t forget about disease resistance. Unfortunately, neither nature nor man has created a unique variety of tomatoes that is 100% resistant to rot and late blight. Breeders were only able to slightly deceive the diseases of the seedlings and bred tomatoes that ripened before the first rudiments of diseases appeared. For example, there are tomato varieties that are resistant to late blight. These are Ogorodnik, Gypsy, Academician Sakharov (ideal for the Moscow region, the central zone). Plants with strong immunity include brands Tatyana, Cherny, Carlson, Zhavoronok, Tsar Peter and others.

Important! Among the strongest, most disease-resistant tomato varieties are those of Siberian selection. They are suitable for breeding in the middle zone, in the Urals.

These are the main criteria by which you should choose the best varieties of tomatoes that are suitable for you. We advise particularly picky gardeners to pay attention to the color, size and shape of the fruit. In this matter, rely on your own preferences and habits.

The best varieties of tomatoes for Siberia

Now let’s look at several varieties that are best grown in Siberia. You will not regret.

Little Red Riding Hood

The variety is low-growing, up to 60 cm, by mid-August I leave almost no leaves on it and it is clear that there are not just a lot of tomatoes, but a lot. I advertised it to everyone, now half the village is planting RED HID! We have time before frost, it is important to have time to collect, and even collect a lot. Yes, small, but a lot and early! There is no need to pinch, I tie them to pegs - there are a lot of fruits and the bushes fall over!

Brawler or Fighter

When I arrived in this village 15 years ago, everyone was imprisoning BAUYAN! And now they are imprisoning him - he is too unpretentious. We rarely plant tomatoes in open ground, but BUYAN can withstand bad weather and produces a good harvest. Sometimes it’s very good! And there’s no hassle with it - it’s a low, compact bush, no need for pinching, very early ripening - and that’s what we need! It comes in jars, canned is very good.

Alsou

ALSU is a song, when you go into the greenhouse and see ALSU, you’ll start singing right away! The sight of this tomato, oh, you need to see it, no, it’s better to pick it up! The bush in the greenhouse does not grow more than a meter, it needs to be pinched. But the result will pay for all the troubles - in August you can slowly pick the first huge tomatoes, and they need to be removed - the tassels are heavy, you even have to tie the tassels. Of course, when planting, we tie the stems to stakes. The taste of ALSU is excellent, the fruits are very fleshy, good both fresh and for ketchup. Everyone who once grew this variety constantly plants it again and again.

Diamond of Yakutia

One of the earliest ripening varieties - my friends ate their first tomatoes in July! The bush is low, strong, the harvest needs a garter! Lots of small neat red fruits. This variety is one of the earliest - and this is wonderful!

Lazy

Low-growing, it is written that the main stem tops at a height of 50 cm and more up - no, no! Pruning up to the 1st cluster means simply tearing off the leaves from the bottom, like all tomato bushes. They promise us a weight of 300 to 600 g, well, that’s in ZG; in a garden bed the bush won’t be able to handle such giants. But no one bothers you to plant it in a greenhouse, which is what is written on the back - OG or SG. The pulp is sugary 4.8 - we will try it when they grow and check. And, most importantly, it will ripen 100 days after germination. In general, I like the description!

Sunrise

I love her very much! It’s short - 40 cm, which is generally great - it’s convenient to cover. Medium size 180-240 g, slightly flat and should bear fruit for a long time, probably until they freeze in a Siberian garden!

This variety can be considered quite early - the average ripening period is about 105-110 days when grown in open ground. In terms of height, the breed is ambiguous: the bush can grow to an unlimited height, so it will need not only gartering, but also shaping. As experienced gardeners advise, it is best if it grows in two stems; moreover, it should not grow higher than 60-70 cm. This is quite convenient, since you do not have to tie it up.

This variety has quite a lot of foliage, and all such leaves are quite large; they should be removed in a timely manner, as they will take away additional moisture, nutrients, and block access to sunlight for the fruit, which will slow down ripening. The shape of the fruit is oblong, slightly flattened. The density of ripened tomatoes is medium, the skin is strong and thick, which allows them to withstand transportation. The color of the fruit is orange-red, the average weight is about 150 grams, but there are tomatoes weighing about 300 grams or even more. From one bush you can collect up to 5-6 kg.
