Growing

The bush is grown through seedlings. To do this, the seeds are planted in containers with fertile soil in March. The container is covered with a film before germination. After spitting the sprouts, the film is removed and cultivation is continued on the sunny side until two permanent leaves appear. Then the plants dive. At the age of 60 days or at the end of May, the plants are transplanted into open ground.

Grigory Arkadyevich from Vologda: “Last year I bought a bag of seeds of the gift variety, I was thinking of making a present for my wife. As it turned out, he surprised himself. Growing this variety is not burdensome. The bushes are low, so they do not need constant garters. Growing in the garden. Got a bright tomato flavor, like my grandmother.In a greenhouse, these would not have turned out. Bushes are compact, do not take up much space. The description is excellent. Tomatoes are red, all the same shape. Although this variety is not intended for pickling, my wife rolled it up. We got delicious tomatoes.”

Dmitry Vladimirovich: “I grew a variety a few years ago, I liked everything: it grows without diseases, the fruits ripen at the same time, the bush is low. The only negative is that during prolonged ripening in the scorching sun, some large tomatoes burst. I don’t know, maybe they didn’t have enough fertilizer or there was too much. The rest of the harvest was a success, I prepared juice for the winter, my wife cooked the sauce and ate fresh tomatoes all autumn.”
