Tomato Stanichnik: description and characteristics of the variety, cultivation and care with photo

The Stanichnik tomato was bred in Russia thanks to the author's developments of the research institute and has been successfully grown in the regions of our country for about 20 years. The determinant variety is included in the register for cultivation in open ground conditions. The plant can be used for cultivation on a large scale. The output of the final product ranges from 76 to 100%. Characteristics and description of the advantages of the Stanichnik tomato variety:

• high stable yields;
• good tasting tomato;
• simultaneous ripening of vegetables;
• opportunity to make infrequent fees;
• possibility of mechanical harvesting.

A distinctive feature of the new type of tomato was the ability to carry out rare collections and good tolerance for difficult transportation conditions.

Features of shoot growth

The plant belongs to a variety of determinant varieties. Spreading undersized shoots reach a height of 48 to 55 cm. The bushes are characterized by medium foliage. The leaf plate of the Stanichnik tomato has a characteristic green color, a smooth surface with a slight corrugation effect. Inflorescences are of an intermediate type.

Growing involves planting seeds in the ground, diving and transplanting to a permanent place. From the moment of sowing to the beginning of ripening, it takes from 95 to 100 days. The recommended time for planting planting material is March 10-20, and planting seedlings May 10-20. Fitting pattern 70 to 60.

Description of fruits

Tomato variety Stanichnik has the shape of a cylinder with a smooth surface. The pulp of the vegetable is dense, inside there are from 3 to 4 nests. Unripe fruits are light green in color. Ripe tomatoes have a characteristic bright color. The average weight of one fruit varies from 60 to 102 grams.

Vegetables are suitable for the following uses:

• fresh use;
• preserving whole fruits;
• preparation of blanks from tomatoes.

Fresh and canned fruits have a pronounced color. In the manufacture of juice, the composition contains 4.6% of the dry component and 2.5% of sugar.

Ripening dates and yields

Tomato belongs to varieties of medium ripening and is characterized by simultaneous reddening of the fruit. A distinctive quality is considered to be a high yield, characterized by stability and having slight deviations from the average. On one brush, fruit ovaries are formed in an amount of 7 to 9 tomatoes. The value of the number of crops taken from 1 m^{2 depends on the conditions of a particular region:}

• North Caucasian - from 2.1 to 4.6 kg.
• Nizhnevolzhsky - from 2.3 to 3.9 kg.

Features of care

The plant is thermophilic and demanding on the amount of sunlight. Sufficiency of heat is a determining factor for growth rate, ripening speed and final yields. Soil moisture does not significantly affect plant growth.Humidity has a great influence, which during the period of fruit ripening should not exceed 60%. For the first 10 weeks, it is recommended to keep the humidity at 60-65%.

With insufficient air humidity, the pollination of the plant deteriorates, and the flowers begin to fall off. At the same time, the plant is more susceptible to fungal diseases in the form of a black leg in seedlings and late blight in fruits. The lack of moisture leads to the stretching of the shoots up and a decrease in yield.
