Characteristics of tomatoes

The variety's characteristics and description provide the following information. This tomato is determinate and grows no more than 1.5 m. Honeydews are late-ripening tomatoes, so it can take more than four months from planting the seeds to the first fruits.

Fruit characteristics:

• The fruits are unusual. They are very large, weighing on average up to 400 g.
• Tomatoes turn out orange or creamy yellow.
• They are round.
• The skin is very dense, so Honey Dews are easy to transport.
• Ripe fruits can be stored for more than 1.5 months.

An important distinguishing characteristic of this variety is its flavor. The flesh is dense and very sweet, even slightly honey-flavored.

Planting and care

Honey Dew is an easy-to-grow variety. It tolerates cold well and, if basic growing guidelines are followed, produces an excellent harvest.

The seeds are sown two months before the expected time of planting in the ground. It's important that the seedlings germinate in warmth and adequate moisture. This will ensure the plants become strong enough to thrive in their permanent location. Experts recommend using a growth stimulant for the seedlings. Like all other tomato varieties, it's recommended to gradually harden off the Medovye Rosy plants rather than plant them directly in the ground. Allow two weeks for this process.

Planting in a permanent location should be done according to the rules. Honeydew is a large shrub, so no more than three plants can be planted per square meter.

Removing side shoots is essential for proper growth and good yield. Experienced gardeners recommend training the plant into a single bush.

The Medovye Rosy variety isn't particularly demanding. Plants rarely get sick. With regular watering in the morning or evening, and regular fertilization, gardeners are guaranteed an excellent harvest.

Honey Ross is a cold-hardy plant, making it an excellent choice for climates typically experiencing cold summers. Even in areas with low heat, where other varieties would simply fail, Honey Ross produces an excellent harvest.

Description and use

This variety is considered one of the most unpretentious, but watering and fertilizing rules still need to be taken into account, otherwise a good yield may not be achieved.

If a gardener does everything right, large yellow tomatoes with an extraordinary flavor await. It's believed that a single bush can yield up to 5 kg of tomatoes. These are excellent results for an easy-to-grow plant that can bear fruit even in less favorable conditions.

Medovye Rosy is a very large variety. The tomatoes are large, so they're not ideal for whole canning. However, they look wonderful in salads, complementing other ingredients with their honeyed sweetness. Given this variety's prolific yield, even a small plot can yield a large quantity of beautiful and delicious tomatoes, enough for family-sized salads, juice, and delicious adjika.
