According to gardeners, the fruits of this variety are excellent for canning, salting, pickling, and preserving in glass jars for the winter.

The yield is quite high. One bush produces about 4 kg of tomatoes. The fruits ripen simultaneously and in large quantities, which is one of the advantages of this tomato variety.

How are tomatoes grown?

Sow seeds for seedlings two months before planting outdoors or in a greenhouse. The best conditions for seedling growth are temperatures between 23 and 25ºC and optimal humidity for tomato growth. When planting seedlings in the ground, maintain a certain distance between them.

Plant no more than 3 plants per square meter. Bushes should be trained into 1-2 stems. The stems are dense, and the leaves resemble potato leaves. Plants should be pinched, meaning removing excess shoots, which burden the bush and reduce yield.

Tomatoes need to be watered regularly, hilled, the soil in the vegetable plot needs to be loosened, and complex fertilizers containing both mineral and organic substances need to be applied. Weeding also needs to be done.

Early-ripening Tamina tomatoes require treatment with growth stimulants. This treatment increases seed germination, improves inflorescence formation, promotes faster fruit ripening, and increases tomato yield. Experienced gardeners recommend using these substances.

With high tomato yields, gardeners can use them not only for personal consumption but also for sale. Tomatoes are not particularly susceptible to adverse weather conditions, temperature fluctuations, or wind.

Vegetable growers' reviews of this variety are positive. Even novice gardeners can get an excellent harvest with minimal time and effort.

Tomatoes are unaffected by hot, dry weather. The plant is not susceptible to diseases. Gardeners consider the excellent transportability of the fruit, due to its firm surface, to be the variety's main advantage.

Tomatoes also have a long shelf life when harvested and stored in boxes or containers in a cellar. They retain their quality throughout the process. Thanks to its characteristics and ease of maintenance, the Tamina variety is one of the most popular among gardeners.
