Opinions of gardeners

Good day! This summer, on the advice of a friend, I tried to plant a Hedgehog tomato. Growing a plant is not particularly difficult. The bush is very modest in size, compact. On one square meter of land, you can safely place 5-6 bushes. The tomato loves feeding and responds positively to abundant watering. The fruits are small, weighing about 70 grams. For whole canning - a great option. Recommended!

For lovers of ornamental tomatoes, I advise you to try the Hedgehog variety! I have been growing them on my balcony for several years now. I get stable and very worthy crops. A compact bush with a height of only 0.5 meters decorates the house and benefits.I tried to plant a determinant plant in a summer cottage. Tomato bears fruit well in greenhouse conditions, tolerates temperature changes. The berries taste sweet, with a slight sourness.
