General information about tomatoes

Tomatoes are considered early-ripening. Depending on planting conditions and weather, fruiting occurs 88-92 days after sowing. During the growing season, the bush requires ample watering and fertilization. The plant responds well to organic and synthetic fertilizers. Until the trunk reaches its full size, it must be protected from infection and garden insects.

A mature bush reaches 60-80 cm in height. The trunk develops numerous spreading branches covered in dense foliage. The leaves are dark green and dense. The bushes emit a distinctive, spicy aroma that is not irritating to the respiratory system. The bush requires staking, as there is a risk of branches breaking or the plant falling to the ground under the weight of the fruit.

Tomatoes grow evenly across the bush in clusters of 5-7. The fruits are shaped like slightly flattened spheres, hence their name. Young berries are bright red, darkening to a crimson as they ripen. The skin is thin, bright, and glossy, preventing dust and debris from accumulating. Each tomato weighs 150-180 g and is 70-80 mm in diameter.

Reviews of the Tolstushka tomato

Anastasia, 45 years old, Bratsk:

"I live in a private house and have five children who need plenty of vitamins. I'm constantly experimenting with new tomato varieties. Last year, I tried planting 'Tolstushka.' It was a success: the harvest was very large, and the fruits were tasty and juicy. I was also pleasantly surprised by the plants' survival rate. They successfully survived cold fog and a period of intense heat."

Vladislav, 66 years old, Novorossiysk:

"Since retiring, I've been living at my dacha. I decided to start growing tomatoes and settled on Pyshka. It's a very good variety: early, productive, and resistant to infection. We eat the tomatoes raw, dry, and freeze them. All dishes are delicious and flavorful."

Maria, 28 years old, Vologda:

"We have a dacha, but we can't always visit. Many plants die without regular watering. The exception is the Pyshka tomatoes. They tolerate drought, rain, and fog. They sometimes go a week without watering, remaining fresh and without losing their yield or quality. I recommend this excellent variety to everyone!"
