Variety "Tretyakov" pleased with a plentiful harvest. Grew in 2017 for the first time. Tomatoes grew beautiful and juicy. The main crop was eaten directly from the garden and in salads. Next year I plan to plant more bushes, and use some of the tomatoes for pickling.

Acquired seedlings in the market. The bushes grew tall and ugly. But the tomatoes themselves are tasty, smooth, as from the picture. Next year I will grow seedlings myself in order to form compact bushes from an early age. And I will pay more attention to pinching and pinching - this variety grows very quickly in height.

I bought seeds on the advice of a friend. Approximately half the bag has risen. Seedlings grew sturdy and strong. Replanted into the ground (greenhouse) at the end of May. The crop was good. There were no problems with leaving - watered, fertilized as usual. The bushes didn’t hurt, I didn’t observe any pests. I liked that after harvesting a lot of tomatoes were stored in the refrigerator without any consequences. I recommend this wonderful variety to everyone!
