For the fifth summer I have been planting Russian Bogatyr tomatoes in the greenhouse. Growing is not much different from other varieties. Be sure to tie up and feed, otherwise there will be no good harvest. The plant loves abundant watering. The harvest is decent, up to 7 kg from one bush. The fruits are juicy and sugary. The variety produces delicious twists and tomato juice.
