Those gardeners who live in warm regions or decide to grow a crop in greenhouse conditions will be able to fully enjoy the delicious fruits of Yellow corrugated. By the way, both growing conditions for the variety are ideal.
Tall bushes often reach two meters. But the average "growth" of the yellow corrugated tomato is 1.70 - 1.80 cm. With such parameters, it is not surprising that there is a risk of branch deformation. So, the gardener will have to work hard to create reliable supports and garters. From time to time, tomatoes will have to be thinned out due to the large number of medium-sized leaves. Thinning will simplify tomato care, pick tomatoes quickly and unhindered, and eliminate the likelihood of developing diseases.
The optimal planting density is four plants per square meter. But many advise to stop at the landing of three bushes. This will allow each plant to grow freely, giving each kilogram of the crop 6 kilograms of tomatoes.
Among the main advantages of the variety Yellow corrugated - the ability to develop perfectly in conditions of prolonged rainfall, without cracking the fruit, copes with heat well.

Tomatoes are formed abundantly, in an equally large amount both on the lower brushes and on large ones. This characteristic allows the yellow corrugated to stand out from other plants.
Each fruit at the stage of biological full maturity becomes lemon yellow. Weight can vary from 150 to 400 grams. In a warm climate with perfect care for tomatoes, you can achieve great results by growing real giants in the bushes.

Landing rules
The development of strong seedlings of the variety Yellow Fluted takes no more than 65 days. This should be taken into account during planning of sowing operations and tomato transplantation. The best solution for the agrarian will be growing with seedlings. This allows you to control every stage of plant development, gives the gardener the confidence that the crop is one hundred percent healthy and grown using the highest quality materials.
The first thing you need is to use disinfectants and growth stimulants that will allow the tomatoes to come together amicably and quickly. If the temperature does not fall below 21 degrees and does not exceed 27 degrees, strong sprouts will appear already on the 5th day.
After this, it becomes necessary to control not only the temperature, but also the amount of light. Many experts continue to argue whether the light for tomatoes is more beneficial - daylight or artificial. Rapid growth is observed in seedlings that are grown on the southern windowsill under the daytime sun. Its intensity is sometimes insufficient for the tomatoes to grow in a strong dense stem. In addition, the amount of lighting is easier to regulate with artificial sources, which means that growing under lamps can give equally good results.
At the stage of growing tomato seedlings, you can refuse to use fertilizer. Especially if the sowing work was carried out using a high-quality soil mixture. But, adhering to all the necessary conditions for growing tomatoes and noticing slow growth, it may be necessary to apply a small amount of complex liquid mineral fertilizer.
The transplant is carried out in dry weather, two weeks after the last frost. This is enough time for the earth to completely warm up and allow the young culture to quickly take root in a new place.

But on average, one watering per week is more than enough to support the active growth of tomatoes without over-moistening the soil. Where more often you have to carry out loosening, which will contribute to the proper development of the root system.
- It is important to pay a lot of attention to top dressing, without overdoing the use of nitrogen fertilizers. They build up the green mass of tomato. Gardeners with experience claim that corrugated yellow responds equally well to both commercial mineral supplements and organic materials. This means that you can make such dressing alternately, no more than once every 10 days.
- To protect from the cold, you can use a thick layer of mulch from mowed herbs. The landowner must make sure that the plant mulch does not contain traces of pesticides.
Harvesting, storage
Professionals recommend eating yellow corrugated tomatoes immediately after harvesting. But this does not mean that tomatoes cannot be stored for a long time in the bookmark. If you pick the fruits a week before biological maturity, their keeping quality increases for a long time. In the tab, the harvested crop can last up to three to four weeks.

Reviews
Dmitry:
Two years ago, the yellow corrugated plant suffered greatly from a viral disease. Since then, I still can’t put the site in order and completely disinfect it. But this does not stop me from picking a wonderful crop from bushes growing in the greenhouse. Productivity there is no worse, and caring for the crop has become even easier.
Helena:
The taste of Yellow Fluted is really pleasant, sweet and intense.Bushes are actively developing, but the main advantage for me was the resistance of the variety to heat, which quite often impedes the proper growth of many crops in the garden.
Victor:
I rarely visit the country. I was surprised that without thorough watering, the yellow corrugated bushes continued to actively tie fruit. The plant is strong, healthy, lush, but you have to spend a lot of time on the garter. Alas, tall tomatoes can not do without it.
