Description and characteristics of the tomato variety "Father"
Variety of tomato "Father" can be attributed to early ripening varieties, since from the moment of planting to harvesting the first fruits no more than 100 days pass. The bushes of this plant are tall (the average length of an adult bush varies from 1.5 to 2 meters), which means that the variety requires garter and pinching. This tomato grows best if it is formed in 1-2 stems.
One fruit ripens large enough, its weight can reach 350 grams. In shape, it is a bit like a heart with a sharp tip. The color of the fruit of the father’s tomato is pink, saturated. The pulp of these tomatoes is fleshy, there is practically no seeds in it, and it has a very sugar taste, so this variety can be safely attributed to the group of sweet tomato varieties.
Batyana tomatoes are very well suited for making tomato paste, for adding to salad, and because of the sweet taste it is simply impossible to stop eating fresh. But for conservation and pickling, this variety is not the best option.
Planting seeds for seedlings should be 50-60 days before planting in the ground. On one square meter it is best to plant no more than 4 plants.
