Description of the determinate tomato variety Nevsky Yubileiny, its advantages and disadvantages

When gardeners are faced with the question of planting the Nevsky tomato, the variety's characteristics and description help them make the right choice. With proper care, you can reap delicious fruits within three months of sowing the seeds for seedlings. Its main characteristic is its limited growth. These tomatoes are considered dwarf rather than low-growing. Therefore, the Nevsky Yubileiny variety is used for growing tomatoes indoors, including on balconies.

Description of fruits

The Nevsky tomato variety, pictured below, is a favorite among many gardeners. The main characteristic of these tomatoes is their small stature, which makes them easy to care for. However, the yield of determinate varieties is often significantly lower than that of taller varieties.

Nevsky Yubileiny is no exception. When comparing its fruiting to most indeterminate varieties, the difference is immediately apparent. However, with proper care, gardeners can reap a fairly large harvest, as much as is possible with a bush height of 40 cm.

Nevsky tomatoes (photo below) ripen very quickly. Excellent tomatoes can be produced in 90 days. Given this characteristic and the determinate nature of the bushes, the plant can be planted even in cool climates without a greenhouse.

The bush produces numerous, but rather small, fruits. On average, Nevskiy Yubileyny tomatoes weigh 60 grams. They are firm and fleshy. Their dry matter content is over 5%. Given this, these tomatoes store well, are ideal for canning, and do not spoil even during long transportation. Fresh tomato lovers will definitely love these tomatoes. The fruits of the Nevskiy variety can be distinguished not only by weight but also by color. They are orange with a reddish tint.

Characteristics of the variety

The main advantage of the Nevsky Yubileiny tomato, pictured below, is that it not only ripens quickly but also has a very compact size. At 40 cm tall, the plant produces a fairly good harvest. However, achieving high yields from the Nevsky variety requires proper care.

This variety can grow in various regions of Russia. However, it's important to note that these tomatoes are suitable for open ground cultivation only in the south. In the central and northern parts of the country, seedlings can be planted under cover. This can be in heated or unheated greenhouses, as well as hotbeds. It's worth noting that due to their small size, these tomatoes are also popular with those who prefer to grow tomatoes indoors, on a veranda or balcony.

This variety's bushes don't take up much space. However, to maximize yield, additional training is still recommended. All side shoots must be removed. Experts recommend training the plant into three stems. It doesn't require staking, which saves the gardener from unnecessary work.

Pros and cons

The Nevsky Yubileiny tomato, a photo of which can be seen below, is familiar to many gardeners. They are loved for their quick ripening, making them resistant to late blight.

Preventative spraying is essential for this variety, as it is susceptible to various types of rot. This is one of the tomato's main drawbacks. Furthermore, many gardeners complain that the yield from this variety is too low. To increase productivity, special fertilizers are needed.

Among the positive qualities, the plant's size is especially noteworthy. Given that tomatoes don't grow more than 40 cm tall, they are often planted indoors. It's worth noting that tomatoes grown indoors are virtually disease-free. As a result, you can enjoy tasty, healthy, and plump tomatoes year-round.
