Reviews

Elena:

Last summer I grew a tomato "Amber honey" in a greenhouse. The bushes were good, powerful, but the first brushes withered, and the subsequent ones did not produce many tomatoes. True, the fruits were large, more than 300 g. I planted this year, only now in open ground, I decided that it was too hot in the greenhouse.

Aleksey:

Tomato grew in OG. He got on well, did not get sick. Bushes higher than a meter never grew. But the harvest was worthy. Tomatoes are large, beautiful and delicious.

Svetlana:

Very tasty tomatoes. When you cut it, it feels like under the thin skin of a tomato, really, honey.

Alena:

This year I planted the Amber Honey tomato in the greenhouse. They are gaining growth well and the ovaries have already formed, only now the leaf is not potato, but ordinary. I even doubted whether I planted it. I'll see what grows.
