Reviews from those who planted

Peter

My wife and I bought seeds at a fair two seasons ago. They didn’t pay much attention to the packaging and manufacturer. The seeds did not germinate. As it turned out, we bought the missing seeds, some of which were empty. And that summer, we bought the seeds from a trusted store and after 3 months the seeds produced the first tomatoes: tasty and juicy, just what you need for any dish.

I have been growing tomatoes Rose for several years now. I like the variety, it’s not whimsical, you don’t have to fuss with it. The tomatoes always turned out juicy, and so many of them ripened that some of them were taken for sale while still unripe. Last season the weather was cool and I decided to grow tomatoes in a greenhouse. I did everything the same as always, but some of the seedlings fell ill with late blight. The neighbor then pointed out the mistake - I did not ventilate the greenhouse. The stuffiness ruined the entire harvest. So be careful.
