What gardeners say about the variety

The Japanese hybrid is still little studied by Russian summer residents, there are reviews, but rather concise and contradictory. Perhaps in the near future Pink Pioneer will be as popular as another tomato hybrid from Japan - Pink Paradise. Summer residents have already appreciated the variety Pink Paradise for its yield and sweet taste of fruits, and success will certainly come to the new Pink Pioneer hybrid.

Two seasons growing Japanese hybrids of the first reproduction: Pablo, Pink Paradise. Tomatoes were used for canning. I liked the hybrids: care is not difficult, the bushes lend themselves well to formation, the harvest is stable. Today, in addition to these hybrids, I planted Pink Pioneer - a salad hybrid with pink fruits. I didn’t make a mistake with the choice, the fruits ripened early, I won’t ex alt the taste to the skies, but it’s quite tomato. The fruits are long-lived, very suitable for summer residents who trade.

I live in the Urals, due to weather conditions we belong to the zone of risky farming. In order to be less dependent on the vagaries of the weather, two polycarbonate greenhouses were equipped on the site. There are proven varieties that I plant every year, but I don’t forget to try new ones. This season I sowed two hybrids of Japanese selection. I bought tomato seeds Pink Pioneer F1 and Pink Claire. I liked the Pink Claire hybrid more: the taste is excellent, the fruits did not crack, there were no signs of vertex rot. The pink tomatoes of the Pink Pioneer hybrid were inferior in taste. In all other respects, the second hybrid also suited me. Will I still plant these varieties, I have not yet decided, winter is ahead, I will still decide.
