Reviews from vegetable growers
If you look at the reviews of those who have already grown this variety, they are mostly positive.
Mikhail, Vladimir region: “I have planted so many different varieties of tomatoes, but I have never seen such a harvest of tomatoes. This is truly a Superbomb!
Nina Yuryevna, Stary Oskol: “Good tomatoes. If you care for them properly, you can reap a large harvest. Large and very tasty. Simply perfect for salads. But to prepare it for the winter, I used others, since these are too big, and it’s a pity to put such beauty in a jar. These tomatoes need to be eaten fresh!
Anastasia, Yekaterinburg: “The tomatoes turned out to be smaller than in the description. But this is due to the bad summer. I’m surprised how anything grew at all in this weather. But Superbomb didn’t let us down and didn’t leave us without tomatoes.”
Advantages and disadvantages of the variety
Despite the fact that this variety appeared quite recently, farmers have already managed to appreciate its advantages. The main advantage for summer residents is the large fruits, which are distinguished by excellent taste. The Superbomb tomato (in the photo you can see the location of the fruits on the bush) demonstrates high productivity even under unfavorable climatic conditions, in rainy and cloudy summers. The bushes are resistant to not the best weather conditions and are able to adapt to the harsh Siberian climate. The Superbomb is not afraid of sudden cold snaps or rapid changes in weather conditions.
Speaking about the Superbomb tomato, vegetable growers note that it is one of the most productive among mid-season varieties. In addition, Superbomb is not afraid of most ailments that are characteristic of tomato crops. And the only drawback of the variety, gardeners call its susceptibility to diseases such as late blight and alternaria. Tomato often suffers from pests, including mole crickets, wireworm caterpillars and whiteflies. True, this problem is easily solved: in order to destroy the whitefly, the drug “Confidor” is suitable. To combat the mole cricket, you will need a chemical called “Thunder”, a vinegar solution or a tincture of hot pepper. In order to protect vegetables from wireworms, you need to lime the acidic soil and apply a product such as “Bazudin”. If you notice that the stem is being chewed by caterpillars, use the Strela chemical. To protect plants from diseases, you can spray the bushes with Ordan as a preventive measure.

Features of cultivation
Breeders note: the Superbomb tomato is recommended for growing both in greenhouse conditions and in an open garden bed. Of course, like seeds of any other variety, Superbomb seeds will require pre-treatment. Before sowing, it is necessary to disinfect the planting material: for this you can use a weak solution of potassium permanganate, boric acid or soda. It is necessary to keep them in this solution for 24 hours, then they should be slightly dried. The soil also needs to be disinfected: you can calcine it in the oven at a temperature not exceeding 100 degrees, or you can spill it with a slightly pink solution of potassium permanganate.
60 days before you plant the seedlings in a permanent place, you should sow seeds for seedlings. By the time of planting in the ground, the seedlings should be strong bushes with ten true leaves, two clusters of flowers, and the height of the plant should be at least 35 centimeters. As soon as the plants have their first true leaf, the tomatoes can be picked. To avoid this procedure, you can immediately sow the seeds in individual cups. If you use peat soils, you can plant the Superbomb tomato in a greenhouse or soil directly in them.
Transplantation to a permanent place
The optimal time for planting seedlings in a permanent place is from early to mid-May in a greenhouse, from late May to early June in open ground. For tomatoes of this variety, neutral soil mixtures are best suited, preferably well-drained. Before planting, a small amount of organic fertilizer must be added to each prepared hole. Then the soil must be watered and only after that the tomatoes should be planted.
Preparing seedlings and planting
The optimal way to plant a tomato is in seedlings. To achieve the best results you should:
- carry out pre-sowing seed treatment;
- plant in containers to a depth of 1-1.5 cm;
- water regularly;
- feed the seedlings at least twice;
- maintain the temperature in the room with seedlings at least 20 degrees;
- Seedlings need a large amount of light; if necessary, purchase special lighting devices.
- pick the tomato immediately after the first leaf appears;
- 7-10 days before planting seeds in open ground, harden the plant;
- carry out weeding and loosening.
The seedlings are ready for planting in two months. The appearance of the plant ready for planting is a small green bush 30-35 cm high, the number of leaves is at least 10.

Plant care
Gardeners note that Superbomb does not require excessive care. It is responsive to moisture and the application of complex mineral and organic fertilizers. Superbomb is sensitive to a lack of boron and potassium in the soil. Plants need to be watered abundantly, but not often. Please note: water should be poured only at the root, being careful not to get on the ovaries or leaves. This is fraught with the appearance of fungal diseases. Make sure that the air in the greenhouse is not too humid and ventilate it in a timely manner. Watering should be especially abundant during the period of fruit formation. Summer residents say: the best method of moistening the soil is a drip irrigation system, which allows the bushes to develop deep, strong roots.
Immediately after planting, as well as after each watering, the soil under the tomato bushes must be mulched. The plant will also need pinching and tying to a support. It is best, say experienced gardeners, to form a bush with three stems.
Conditions necessary for harvesting the largest possible harvest
In order to ensure maximum fruiting of this tomato variety and improve the quality and taste of the fruit, a growth stimulator will be required. Of course, when choosing a product, you need to pay attention to its basic characteristics. The first is the composition of the drug. The growth stimulator should not include any dangerous chemical components. The product must be environmentally friendly and completely harmless, otherwise you risk getting fruits that are not suitable for consumption. The second factor to consider when choosing a plant growth stimulating agent is that it should not have any side effects. The third thing a novice gardener should know: when using several products to feed or protect plants, you need to make sure that they are compatible with each other.
To increase the yield of Superbomb tomatoes (pictured), according to gardeners, it is best to use universal-purpose stimulants: Zircon, Ecogel, Ribav-extra. Please note: the application intervals and quantities should not be changed: the manufacturer always indicates any application features on the packaging.
Harvesting
Since Superbomb belongs to the category of mid-season varieties, the ripening period of tomatoes is about 105-110 days. Please note: the manufacturer recommends removing tomatoes from the bushes before the temperature at night begins to drop below +8 °C. The thing is that at low temperatures the likelihood of diseases in vegetables increases. Cleaning should be done selectively: unsightly specimens should be removed first. It is best to collect not red, but brown fruits, which just need to be left to ripen. 20 days before the final harvest, all buds and flowering shoots from the bushes should be removed. This will allow the bulk of the tomatoes to ripen faster.
