Tomato Master F1 is popular with gardeners in problem areas. It gives excellent yields in protected ground. Summer residents appreciated the commercial qualities of the hybrid. Ripens early. Attracts the transportability of fruits. Tomatoes keep for a long time. They are consumed fresh, canned, frozen.

Why do gardeners choose Master?

The hybrid was created by the breeders of the Gavrish agricultural company. It is intended for indoor cultivation.

The plant is characterized by:

• average ripening period (from loops to the first harvest 110-115 days);
• high bush sizes (stretches up to 1.8 m);
• medium leaf;
• bright green haulm;
• the first inflorescence is formed after the 8th leaf;
• further brushes - after 2-3 sheets;
• fruits in film, glass and plastic greenhouses;
• plant yields up to 16 kg/m² (or up to 7 kg/plant).

Master is resistant to cladosporiosis, TMV, Fusarium. A competent gardener is able to get up to 92% of the output of marketable products.

Some summer residents plant a hybrid in both unheated and heated greenhouses. In the latter case, fruiting is stretched. Sweet tomatoes are on the menu until late autumn.

What attracts the Master?

The master is included in the State Register of the Russian Federation. Its successful cultivation in the 3 light zone allows you to have vegetable products from winter to spring in heated greenhouses with additional lighting.

Characteristic of tomatoes:

• fruits weighing up to 150 g;
• up to 6 tomatoes in a brush;
• round shape, flattened at the stem;
• the skin is dense, smooth;
• the color of the ripe fruit is bright red;
• green tomato has a light spot at the stalk (then it disappears);
• pulp firm, juicy;
• taste sweet and sour;
• tomato aroma.

Tomatoes are securely attached to the stalk. The dense skin allows you to harvest with tassels. There are no losses during transportation. Master can be stored for up to 1.5 months without refrigeration.

If it is impossible to heat the greenhouse, gardeners remove tomatoes unripe. Green fruits are ripened in the dark.

Growing conditions

On a bag of seeds, the manufacturer indicates the possible harvest. But to get it, you should follow the advice of agronomists. Gavrish breeders recommend:

• grow seedlings (sow not earlier than the end of March-beginning of April);
• be sure to pick with deepening to the first true leaves;
• feed seedlings with a mineral complex (once every 10 days);
• plant in a greenhouse at the age of 40 days (in cold weather, delay planting in an unheated greenhouse);
• plant requires garter and moderate pinching;
• lead the Master should be in one stem;
• the plant responds well to the introduction of organic matter (the first one should be done when planting on the leaves);
• recommended when landing in a permanent place, mix the earth in the hole with the mineral complex;
• planting according to the scheme: distance between plants 40 cm, between rows - 60 cm;
• ensure moderate watering.

In hot weather, the greenhouse should be ventilated. If the temperature rises for a long time, it is recommended to whiten the transparent parts.

Opinion of summer residents

Gardeners give good reviews about Master tomato. They like: taste, transportability, shelf life of tomatoes. Attracts the opportunity to grow a hybrid in warm greenhouses in the winter. I am pleased with the universal use of fruits: they can be preserved, consumed fresh, frozen.

The gardeners consider the large size of the bush, the need for shaping and garters to be a disadvantage. The hybrid has not aligned fruits. Tomatoes of the first harvest are larger than subsequent ones.
