Variety opinions

Good day! This summer I tried a new variety for myself - Ivanhoe. For growing, you need a high greenhouse or film shelter. The tomato is tall, the bush grows up to 2 meters. The plant is resistant to most diseases and does not require special care. The yield is decent, from the bush I received up to three kilograms of berries. Taste is excellent.

I advise all lovers of early varieties to try Ivanhoe. The fruits can be harvested as early as 90 days after planting the seeds. Tomato prefers the classic - seedling method of planting.Loves feeding and needs a garter. The berries are sweet, medium in size - weight no more than 180 grams. The fruit is suitable for salads and winter preparations. Recommended!
