Experienced vegetable growers who have planted tomatoes more than once leave positive reviews.

Ivan, 47 years old: “I have planted an early ripe Siberian tomato in my garden for several years in a row. The plant allows you to get a good harvest, which ripens together in any year, even with bad weather conditions. It does not require special care. The fruit tastes sweet with a pronounced sourness. Great for a region where summers are short and cool. "

Plant care

Seeds for seedlings begin to be planted in the last days of March. Previously, it is recommended to disinfect them, harden and germinate.

In a container with soil, pits are made 1 cm deep, where the seeds are placed. The box is then covered with plastic and moved to a warm, dry place. As soon as all the sprouts sprout, the film is removed and care continues on a well-lit windowsill.

As soon as two leaves unfold, they carry out the picking procedure into separate cups. The pick is carried out only on strong and large seedlings. They are transplanted under the open sky on the 20th of May. It is useful to add superphosphate to the holes intended for seedlings.

The spacing between the pits should be approximately 50 cm.The distance between the rows should be at least 30 cm.

Another feature is that you need to form three stems. The procedure allows you to increase the amount of the harvested crop. Since the stem does not grow very high upward, an additional retaining structure does not need to be installed.

Another integral procedure is pinching. If you do not cut the side branches, then the plant grows and the amount of fruit formation is significantly reduced.

Planting seeds early increases the risk of pulling out the seedlings. Then the number of fruits decreases, and the susceptibility to pathogens increases. For seedlings, you need to provide the necessary level of humidity and air temperature, there must be a sufficient supply of light.

The bushes of the variety are small, but sometimes they can break due to the placement of large fruits on the branches. Therefore, you need to take care in time and install the support.
