How to grow Dino tomato?

This variety can be grown not only in greenhouses but also outdoors. Thanks to its compact size, the bushes require little care, and the plant's leaves reliably protect the ripening fruit from the scorching sun and other adverse climate conditions.

The plant is determinate, meaning it grows upward to its desired height; typically, Dino reaches only 1 meter in height. Each stem produces approximately 8 clusters, and after the last one is formed, the bush stops growing. This allows the farmer or gardener to avoid wasting time and effort tying the bush to a support and shaping it so it doesn't collapse under the weight of the fruit.

This will free up your time to devote to caring for the plant. It requires regular weeding, constant watering with clean water, and harvesting.

Tomatoes are either medium or large in size, depending on how well they are cared for: the better the care, the larger the fruit. On the vine, tomatoes have a uniform appearance and a plum-shaped form. Each fruit can reach 8 cm in length, with a diameter of 5.5 cm at the center. A single tomato can weigh 150 g or slightly less.

The fruit is a rich red color, with a smooth, glossy skin. It's quite dense, making it suitable for long-distance transportation. The fruit should be picked from the bush when it's fully red. It can be eaten fresh or added to various dishes.

Typically, the first harvest can be picked in early summer, and the last fruits are produced by the end of the second month of summer. This is the best time to grow or purchase Dino tomatoes to obtain the greatest amount of vitamins and nutrients.

Description of the variety:

1. Early ripening. By mid-summer, you'll be guaranteed a harvest of delicious and juicy tomatoes.
2. Easy to care for. Thanks to the small bushes, there's no need to tie or pinch the plants. However, watering and weeding should be carefully considered, as these directly impact the plant's yield.
3. The tomatoes' strong and durable skin allows them to be transported over long distances. The fleshy pulp retains its flavor for a long time. It is recommended to store tomatoes at a temperature no higher than +20 °C; in this climate, they can remain in one place for about 2 weeks.

Widely used in cooking, they can be eaten fresh or processed. Tomatoes can also be used for canning for the winter.
Excellent taste qualities make farmers return to growing this tomato variety again and again.

Reviews from gardeners

Svetlana Egorovna, Cheboksary:

"A couple of years ago, I planted Dino tomatoes in my greenhouse for the first time. I read up on what I needed to do to ensure they grew well. I did everything right: weeded and watered. I ended up with a great harvest. We enjoyed fresh tomatoes for several weeks. Then we used the leftovers for pickling, and continued enjoying canned tomatoes in the winter. This year, I'm trying to plant them outdoors, fortunately, the climate is favorable. But just in case, I'll also plant a couple of plants in the greenhouse, so I don't end up empty-handed."

Tatyana, Moscow:

"I like tomatoes. I used to buy them from a friend, but then I decided I had to try them myself. My own were even tastier, but because I neglected to keep an eye on the weeds, the harvest was meager. I'll plant more and improve."

Alexey, Smolensk:

"They're delicious, juicy, keep for a long time, and my family loves them. Last year, I even sold them to my neighbors for cheap; their harvest wasn't going well. They were impressed; they asked me the variety, and I said it was worth it."
