Fine, delicious variety! I’ve been growing the second year in greenhouse conditions. I'm happy with the result - the bushes do not get sick, the yield is decent.
Igor, Kazan
Planted this variety last year. All landings I have exclusively in the open ground. Bushes of the "Big ice cream" grew small and not very beautiful. Of the benefits - only a non-standard color. The taste is ordinary - there are many varieties that are much tastier and more interesting. Tomato for an amateur.
