When choosing a certain type of tomatoes, a summer resident must be puzzled by the question of where he will grow them - in a greenhouse or natural conditions, because for open ground and film greenhouses are suitable different varieties tomatoes. Approaches to growing fruits in a greenhouse and open ground are very different.

Advantages of growing different varieties of tomatoes in open ground

The most productive variety of tomatoes intended for growing in a greenhouse will not produce high yields under natural conditions. And vice versa: tomatoes for open ground planted in a greenhouse will not give high yields and will not have as good a taste as they should have if all cultivation conditions are met.

When choosing tomato varieties, be sure to pay attention to whether they are intended for growing in open ground.

Characteristics of different varieties of tomatoes

The types of tomatoes are extremely diverse. Each of them has unique taste qualities and timing of fruit ripening. For example, an early-ripening tomato variety ripens very quickly, while the number of days from germination to fruiting is very small. Another species requires special care conditions, for example, requires pinching, etc.

Some fruits are more suitable for fresh consumption, while others are only good when canned.

The shape of tomato fruits also has a wide choice. Some of them have an unusual shape (for example, there is a type of tomato shaped like a banana, the fruits of which have a bright yellow color characteristic of this fruit). Such fruits are good for decorating a holiday table, because... will look very impressive.

IN general view Tomato varieties are classified according to the characteristics of their food use and are divided into 4 large groups:

• Pickling fruits, the fruits of which are usually small, red in color, and have excellent taste;
• Canned fruits, characterized by very small fruits and thin skin;
• Salad dishes that do not have a uniform characteristic, because They can be red or yellow, large or small;
• Saucy, with soft pulp, which contains a lot of liquid, and also contains large seeds.

Yield varieties of tomatoes, differing in bush shape

Plant bushes can be:

• Shtambov;
• Neshtambov;
• In the form of potato tops.

Knowing these features, an experienced gardener can at least approximately determine the types of tomatoes visually.

The first type in the above list has low bushes and medium-sized castings.

Non-standard bushes have larger leaves, but their stems are very thin, so they require a garter. The advantages of tying tomatoes are:

• To prevent the growth of excess shoots, which may subsequently hinder normal development plants and fruit ripening;
• In supporting the stems of tall plants, which, if they cannot withstand the weight of very large fruits, can break (stakes support the plant stem);
• In preserving the integrity of the fruit, because, having fallen on the ground, tomatoes can be subject to rotting, insects, etc.

Thus, tomato garter - correct solution for those gardeners who strive to get the maximum yield from the bush.

Tomato bushes in the form of potato tops can be extremely difficult to distinguish from potato bushes themselves. Sometimes even experienced agronomists cannot do this.

Climatic conditions for growing productive tomato varieties

Any productive type of tomato has its own requirements for growing climatic conditions. What is good for one can be disastrous for another. Some varieties are suitable for growing in the southern regions, others - in the northern. Due to ignorance of this fact, unfortunate agronomists often receive a zero harvest.

However there is universal species, suitable for growing in different conditions, suitable for open ground and film greenhouses (as a rule, they all belong to early ripening varieties):

• Bear Paw;
• Mazarin;
• Grandma's secret;
• King of the Giants;
• Bull's heart and many others.

The best tomato hybrids for open ground: early and mid-ripening

Gardeners who grow tomatoes in open ground for fresh consumption or canning are primarily interested in varieties and hybrids of tomatoes for open ground that ripen early. This is not surprising: every gardener wants to see the results of his labors as quickly as possible.

There are a lot of such types of tomatoes, but the best of them (no more than 10 types) have long been the subject of attention of experienced gardeners.

The fact is that not every variety is easy to grow. Many plants require pinching or other specific care conditions. If the plant is more than 30-40 cm high, it requires tying. Thus, most gardeners excluded a number of tomato varieties from their attention.

For open ground and film greenhouses you need to choose different types tomatoes, as we found out earlier. And which of them are super-yielding, we will tell you further.

So, these are the following varieties of tomatoes, very tasty and healthy:

• Lemon liana (or its other name - wonder of the world);
• Roma;
• Anniversary Tarasenko (hybrid-35);
• Anastasia;
• Crimson giant, etc.

Let's take a closer look at the features of each listed types, remembering that they do not belong to the universal ones, i.e. are not suitable for open ground and film greenhouses, but are intended only for cultivation in natural environmental conditions.

The fruits of the raspberry giant variety of tomatoes are very large, even one of the largest. This is an early ripening variety. They are red in color and have a characteristic crimson tint. The weight of each fruit exceeds 500 grams and often reaches 700 grams. This species does not require pinching and other special conditions cultivation. The fruits are located on the branch of the plant in several pieces, they are very heavy, so it is often necessary to tie up the bushes. The plant is about a meter high. This is perhaps the only drawback in caring for the variety.

The fruits of the lemon vine, as the name of the variety suggests, have the shape and appearance of a lemon, although the weight of the fruit is inferior to the weight of a lemon and is no more than 100 grams. The fruit ovaries are numerous: on each branch there are 30-40 pieces.

The fruits of this tomato variety are often used in canning.

Housewives marinate them in their own juice, making a beautiful and tasty snack. This is also an early ripening variety of tomatoes, like the previous one described. Plant up to 70 cm high.

I would like to talk about Anastasia separately, because... This is a productive variety that produces a lot of fruit. This plant, about a meter high, also does not require pinching, like the previously mentioned tomato varieties. Medium-sized tomatoes, up to 7-8 on each bunch. The fruits are good raw; often after picking they are served immediately and are not used for canning. They are slightly elongated in appearance and are red in color. One Anastasia bush gives a high yield (up to 12 kg of delicious tomatoes). The plant is no more than one meter high.

The Roma variety was bred in distant Holland, but has also taken root here in Russia. The fruits are plum-shaped, light in weight (up to 100 grams). Even though the weight of the tomatoes is not great, but on one cluster of the plant an average of 20 small tomatoes are tied.

If the Roma variety is not universal in terms of growing conditions, then its fruits can easily be classified as such. They are used by housewives in pickling and canning. Such tomatoes would also be appropriate in vegetable salads. Note that this is a productive variety that gives a large number of tomatoes from the bush.

The anniversary variety Tarasenko is classified as a mid-season tomato, but this does not affect its popularity among gardeners. The fruits of this variety of tomatoes have correct form And average weight(up to 200-240 grams).

Growing tomatoes of this variety is not difficult, because... the plant is unpretentious. True, it does not have any particular resistance to diseases, as experienced agronomists note. But this is not a problem, since various diseases in the plant occur infrequently. The plant is usually 70-80 cm high.

Thus, suitable for cultivation in open ground early varieties tomatoes, none of which require pinching, and all of them are unpretentious to external conditions. Usually these are low-growing varieties, because tall bushes need gartering, which can only be done in greenhouse conditions. However, some gardeners, preferring tall varieties of tomatoes, still grow them in open ground (for example, the pink honey variety). Of course, the yield is somewhat reduced.

What varieties of tomatoes are good for open ground in your opinion? What do you prefer to grow on your summer cottage?

Good day, dear readers! Today I would like to talk to you about: the best varieties tomatoes for open ground. Many gardeners prefer to grow tomatoes in open ground, especially if the climate is favorable.

It is important to know about some features of varieties for open ground:

1. The difference between the species is visible in the color of the fruit, in its shape, as well as in the time of ripening.
2. The average growing season lasts about 80 days.
3. There are vegetables that can be preserved for a long time, and others that can spoil very quickly.

Before you decide which tomato varieties are best for open ground, learn more about the variety existing options. The choice is influenced by parameters such as heat resistance, ease of care and fleshy pulp.

When choosing, it is worth paying attention to the time of fruit growth. Depending on this factor, tomatoes are early-ripening, mid-ripening and late-ripening.

Regardless of the variety, certain rules must be followed. After harvesting the previous crops, the soil needs to be fertilized, and in the spring the soil is dug up again.

By the way, do not plant tomatoes after peppers or potatoes, as these crops are affected by the same diseases.

It doesn't matter what kind of seedling you choose, but if you don't provide it with proper lighting, it will negatively affect its yield. The leaves will take on a pale tint and the rate of ripening will slow down.

And moisture is necessary to create a strong root system. When watering, do not allow water to fall on the leaves.

It is better to plant seeds using seedling technology. This can be done at home in March. And the resulting sprouts move to the gardens in May.

The best varieties of low-growing tomatoes

Low-growing or determinate species are in demand among summer residents due to the following properties:

• early maturation;
• can grow in different types of soil;
• have vegetables of bright colors;
• requires simple care;
• little susceptible to diseases and bad weather;
• can grow outdoors.

Here is a description of the individual options:

The harsher the climate, the lower the growth of the bushes. Superdeterminate varieties are used, which, due to their small growth, ripen faster and have high yields.

For such a climate, varieties such as Pink Honey, Nevsky, Stolypin, Arctic, Polyarny or Taimyr are suitable. These species have a height of no more than 60 cm, they do not require pinching or thinning, the fruits have a rich taste and bright colors.

They are distinguished by their special taste and ease of care. You can grow almost all types of tomatoes in unprotected open ground.

Low-growing varieties for open ground

Low-growing ones may stop growing immediately after the appearance of 5 brushes. Such varieties can produce crops early.

“Riddle” is considered the best variety. Tomatoes of this variety have a good color that lies evenly. Round shape. If we consider other varieties that ripen in a short time, then it surpasses them in taste. One tomato weighs 150 g. It will take approximately 2.5 months for the fruit to fully ripen.

You will find a list of early varieties for open ground.

During the growth process, the bushes develop very well, and their height is no more than 45 cm. The stem of the bush is strong, and there are a lot of leaves on the bush. These factors indicate that there is no need to additionally tie up the tomatoes. The culture has one drawback: it is necessary to eliminate growing stepsons. Therefore, you need to constantly care for this variety. Stepchildren can be used for growing small bushes. These shoots have the property of good rooting in the ground. Fruits appear on the stepsons only 2 weeks later. If you do not carry out pinching, the tomato harvest will be large, but small.

The best varieties for open ground are presented.

"Crimson Giant" produces large fruits early. If we talk about this group of tomatoes, which produces a good harvest, then this variety is considered practically the only large-ripening one. Can weigh 700 grams. One brush can produce 6 tomatoes. Every third leaf allows the formation of leaves. The shape can be different, but generally they are flattened either on the sides or in height. The color of the tomatoes is pink, the aroma emanates from the fruit. If you properly care for the bushes, then from one such bush you can get about 15 kg of pcs. “Crimson Giant” ripens within 4 months. All this time he is able to resist various diseases.

"Anastasia" considered very early. The bushes are quite tall, they can even grow into 2 stems. An ovary forms every couple of leaves. One brush can produce 8 pieces. One tomato weighs 200 grams.

"Watercolor"The bush has a height of 50 cm. It takes 3 months to ripen. The fruits have elongated shape with fairly thick skin. Weight is 110 grams. Pleasant taste is preserved even during storage. Septoria and blossom end rot are not dangerous for these fruits. These varieties are considered the best among low-growing determinate species.

Typically, the height of a bush of any of these species, like tomatoes, does not exceed 1 meter. Since low-growing varieties have a small root system, then they will take up little space in the garden. Due to the fact that the fruits ripen very quickly, they are not afraid of diseases such as late blight. It usually spreads in August. By this time, the low-growing varieties had already produced their harvest. Usually tomatoes are sown in the first days of May or in the last days of April.
