The best varieties of tomatoes for Siberia for open ground and greenhouses

AN IDEAL OPTION FOR GROWING TOMATOES IN A COLD REGION

I have been growing tomatoes for more than 30 years, having tested hundreds of varieties during this time and finally settled on, as it seems to me, the best and most reliable ones, which I will tell you about at the end of the letter.
As for agricultural techniques, based on my own experiments and advice from readers, I developed a universal method for growing tomatoes, which did not let me down even in the abnormally cold, rainy and cloudy summer of 2014, when the temperature dropped to 3° at night and did not exceed 10 during the day. °. My harvest was such that everyone in the gardening community came to see it. From 70 roots I collected 70 buckets of gorgeous trophies! And now I turn to the description of the technology.

First of all, I must say that I advise you to go to the store for seeds at the very last place, because you either need to collect them yourself or take them from successful and trusted summer residents (that’s why I’m not lazy to maintain active correspondence with other gardeners). I sow seedlings in the first ten days of March and prepare the seed material for this as follows.

First, I keep the seeds for disinfection in a one percent solution of potassium permanganate for half an hour, followed by washing them in clean running water, after which I place them in a box with fertile soil, which I immediately cover with a layer of snow: melt water promotes a more friendly emergence of seedlings.

I plant all the seedlings twice - first in small cups, and then in larger containers, so that the plants grow a powerful root system. In the phase of the second and sixth true leaves, I fertilize with an extract of double superphosphate: I dilute 1 tsp in 1 liter of hot water. fertilizers and, stirring occasionally, let the solution sit for 24 hours.

Standard low-growing ones for Siberia for open ground

The region has a fairly cold climate, but the breeders of our country do not stand still; they managed to develop high-yielding Siberian tomatoes, which are cultivated in such natural conditions. Standard species bear fruit well and produce an impeccable harvest when cultivated in open areas.

Buyan (Fighter)

The bush is low 40 - 45 cm, standard, determinate in appearance. The leaves are medium in size, dark in color, slightly wrinkled. Tomatoes ripen 95 days after germination of seedlings, weighing 65 - 90 grams. The tomato is purple in color and oblong in shape. It has a smooth surface, thick skin, and juicy pulp. Tomatoes are consumed fresh and salted. The variety is drought-resistant, this is a big plus for agricultural technicians who cannot moisten the crop in a timely manner.

Note! Another name for tomatoes is indicated on packages of planting material - Buyan.

Nevsky

The early ripening crop is very small in stature (30 – 50 cm). The ripening time of berries is 90 – 100 days. The variety is undemanding, there is no need to tie it up. Ripe fruits are small, spherical, crimson in color, weight 45 - 55 g. Tomatoes have excellent taste and a long shelf life.

The plant is resistant to many infections. Easily tolerates lack of moisture. Among the main advantages of tomato is the ability to cultivate in urban conditions. But there are some disadvantages: low yield, demanding fertilizers.

Tomato varieties for polycarbonate greenhouses

Let's see what new tomato varieties have appeared for the Urals and Siberia in 2021.

We choose the most delicious tomatoes (tomatoes), self-pollinating and blooming all summer, resistant to late blight and, most importantly, withstanding large temperature changes (day heat and night cold).

“PINK DAWN” determinant, new

The plant is 60-80 cm high, fruiting is abundant and widespread. The variety is mid-early, suitable for growing in greenhouses and open ground; staking and pinching are recommended. The fruits are raspberry-colored, with delicate skin, multi-chambered, sweet, fragrant, very large (up to 420 g).

The most delicious greenhouse tomatoes: “Biysky Rozan”, “Semko-Sinbad” F1, “Druzhok” F1, “Typhoon” F1, “Kostroma F1″, “Solebreti” F1, “Ilyich” F1, “Samara” F1, “Tornado” F1.

What you need to know about choosing a tomato variety

The Ural summer flies by quickly. The favorable time for tomato growth is only one hundred days. To ripen fruits, you need to adapt to climate requirements. For heat-loving tomatoes, a greenhouse can create comfortable conditions. It is possible to achieve success from growing tomatoes in it by providing them with good care, as well as choosing the right variety. In order to grow a bountiful harvest of tomatoes in a polycarbonate greenhouse, you need to follow certain rules:

1. The varieties selected for this type of greenhouse must be resistant to microorganisms.
2. It must have the ability to self-pollinate.
3. The seeds need to be disinfected.

Note! In addition to taste, the selected variety must have a stable gene in the seed (it is found in zoned hybrids). This is necessary to fight infections and adapt to temperature changes.

For greenhouses of various sizes, it is important to select plants that are appropriate in height and compactness. They are selected according to certain criteria:

1. Degrees of resistance to diseases, pests, and adverse conditions.
2. Fruit ripening speed.
3. Their sizes.
4. Taste qualities.
5. Yield indicators.
6. A type of bush.

In addition to the main criteria, there are factors that influence the health of plants grown in greenhouse conditions and the success of the future harvest (microclimate, light, temperature, correct implementation of agrotechnical measures).

Ripening period

For the Urals, the optimal variety of tomato ripening is considered early. In short summer conditions (100 days), the plant should:

• grow from seeds;
• reach a period of biological maturity;
• form an ovary;
• Grow fruits by autumn.

Breeders from the Urals are studying the possibilities of plant adaptation to harsh climates and creating hardy early hybrids such as: “Ural”, “Kostroma”, “Titanic”.

Disease resistance

The criterion for selecting seeds for greenhouses is their resistance to microorganisms. This is important because it has different degrees of disease resistance in different types of tomatoes. The microclimate of greenhouses contributes to the emergence of diseases. It is extremely difficult to create ideal conditions for plants in them due to lack of light and high humidity. Only the presence of resistance in tomatoes to negative environmental influences will allow them to retain the productive characteristics of the variety.

Expert opinion

Gardener with 17 years of experience and our expert

Ask a Question

Important! Ural vegetable growers include early hybrids as tomatoes with high resistance to microorganisms and diseases: “Shustrik”, “Gina”, “Yarilo”, “Cavalier”, “Soyuz 3”, “Blagovest”, “Druzhok”, “Soyuz 8”.

Resistance to temperature changes

The modest possibilities of the Ural summer season cannot accommodate the growing potential of all stages of tomatoes. Therefore, tomatoes grow in covered structures. This state of affairs forces Ural gardeners to carefully select seeds. The best choice would be selected varieties. When there is a lack of sun and temperature fluctuations, experienced summer residents plant tomatoes: “Verlioka”, “Admiralteysky”, “Ural”, “De Barao”.

Stress resistance

For a heat-loving vegetable crop, growing in the Ural climate is stressful, since the normal temperature for tomato growth should be 25 °C. Since the stages of the tomato growing season are difficult to fit into the summer days of the region, when selecting varieties you need to pay attention to zoned breeding hybrids that are distinguished by frost resistance and early ripening. They are adapted to the Ural climate and are able to bear fruit with high yields. At the same time, the taste of tomatoes is not inferior to the popular tomatoes of the southern regions. The most popular hybrids in the Urals are: “Niagara”, “Voyage”, “Rufina”.

Height

Tomatoes recommended for growing in greenhouses are divided into types according to height. Each of them has special qualities.

In indeterminate varieties, the main stem is high (5 m). The bush bears fruit evenly until late autumn. The number of plants per 1 m2 is 3–4 sprouts. Glazed greenhouses are well suited for them, where the plants produce a bountiful harvest. An example is the giant "De Barao". A tall greenhouse will suit him. Tomatoes of this group produce stable yields: “Pink Raisins”, “Auria”, “Honey Drop”, “Banana Legs”.

A feature of determinate tomatoes is the limited growth of the main stem. It has only 5–6 inflorescences. The bushes of the plant are compact and small in stature. In the Urals they grow in greenhouses.

Small bushes also form super-determinate ones. Plant growth stops at 3 inflorescences. These are intense early ripening tomatoes. Plants are planted densely (5–6 per 1 m2).

In between the first two varieties are semi-determinate varieties. They do not have a growth limitation of the main stem. These are late tomatoes. Ripening occurs at 118–130 days from the appearance of sprouts. They are planted 3-4 per 1 m2.

Summer resident - take note! Hybrids have a valuable quality: their fruits grow the same in size, and not small at the end of fruiting, like regular tomatoes.

DUBIOUS PINCHING OF TOMATO SEEDLINGS

Before planting plants in the ground, I put a handful of humus and ash in each hole, a pinch of mineral fertilizer, and exactly one day before starting work, I spill them generously. I plant plants there without deepening them, because their root system is already quite developed. I form the bushes into three stems, for which I leave two stepsons on them in front of the first flower clusters, and remove all the rest.

But I don’t standardize the number of ovaries in the brushes themselves: as many as there will be. I tie the growing stems to a trellis made of bars installed along the bed.

During the summer, I add a little humus under all the bushes once, and also do four root feedings (I do the first of them 10 days after planting the seedlings in the ground) and two or three foliar feedings, and I combine everything with watering. To do this, I pour a liter of the immediately prepared solution into a 10-liter watering can, fill it to capacity with water, stir it and put it to work.

I want to talk about foliar feeding in more detail, because they are tied to several requirements. So, I carry out the first fertilizing during the period of mass flowering of tomatoes, using boric acid (10 g per 10 liters of water), which I fan out over the plants so that the solution does not dry out immediately, but has time to be absorbed into the foliage.

And now a few words about a technique that is becoming increasingly popular among summer residents - pinching the tops of the stems. The authors of some letters even claim that this is simply necessary. It seems to me that not everything is so simple here.

As a result of this procedure, the total number of fruits is reduced, but they ripen much earlier, so each gardener must choose for himself what is more profitable for him. In addition, I believe that pinching is not necessary for large-fruited varieties - it is better to simply remove the excess tassels.

There is, however, one exception, and I will talk about it below.

Determinate varieties

Siberian tomatoes and determinate types can be cultivated in open and closed beds. The plant has dense side stems and does not require pinching or staking. This variety includes standard types - they have less crop growth, they are cultivated by gardeners who cannot regularly monitor the plant.

Nastya Siberian

nastja-sibirjachka

The tomato is an unpretentious, standard variety with medium early ripening. Low-growing tomatoes finish development much earlier, and all efforts are directed toward ripening the vegetable. The bush has a powerful root system, compact, height only 65 cm.

The tomatoes are fruit-bearing, slightly elongated, pinkish-red in color, weight can exceed 200 g. The peel is smooth, strong, plump pulp has a good taste. Tomatoes are consumed fresh and canned for the winter. Gardeners highlight good productivity, which is difficult to expect from such a compact vegetable crop.

Kemerovo

The tomato is an early, determinate, standard type, cold-resistant variety. The height of the crop is 40 - 50 cm. The bushes are powerful, strong, branched. The leaves are dark, of medium parameters. The fruits ripen in clusters, weighing from 50 to 150 grams. The vegetable is raspberry-colored, heart-shaped with an elongated nose, slightly ribbed at the base. The pulp is dense, plump with a sweet-sour aftertaste. The berries are easily transported and stored for more than 60 days.

kemerovec

Thanks to its early ripening, the Kemerovo tomato is not afraid of late blight. The variety does not need to be pinched or tied. Tolerates temperature fluctuations very well. The vegetable is harvested throughout the season and stored for a long period.

Note! Tomatoes are cultivated directly in open ground. The seeds are sown in the garden bed.

Where can I buy suitable tomato seeds?

Taking into account the fact that yield directly depends on the quality of seeds, their purchase should be taken with full responsibility. It is best to buy seeds in specialized stores, where you can be sure that the quality of the planting material is very high. And having purchased the best tomatoes for the Urals here, you can have absolutely no doubt about a good harvest.

To summarize the general review, we can add that tomatoes in the Urals, the varieties of which are distinguished not only by their diversity, but also by their ability to withstand sudden temperature changes, are grown quite successfully. At the same time, if you take responsibility for growing tomatoes, then everyone will be able to get a very good harvest and please their family and friends with delicious fruits. Thanks to the efforts of domestic and foreign breeders, excellent tomatoes can be obtained in the Urals.

Nice new items

All new species are even more resistant to pests and have a sweeter taste.

“Sevryuga” is quickly gaining popularity - a new product that amazes with the gigantic size of the fruit. One and a half kilograms is really a harvest, isn’t it? The bushes reach one and a half meters in height, have large, bright fruits with excellent taste. From one bush you will collect up to 5 kg.

"Eagle's Beak" - beautiful tomatoes with an unusual shape. This plant has thin, almost pendulous leaves, and the fruits themselves are pale and unattractive in appearance. But all this is just a first impression; the tomatoes are very sweet and tasty.

“Greek F1” is an early ripening hybrid with a spout, very tasty and good for pickling.

"Olesya" is the newest variety. The juice of such fruits is clearly reminiscent of apricot in both taste and color, contains a lot of carotene, and therefore is also very healthy. These are bright orange fruits with an unusual taste, grown mainly for pickling.

“Andreevsky Surprise” is still little known. The fruits are dark pink, 600 g each, few seeds. The bushes are particularly powerful, growing more than two meters - you will have to tinker with them in the greenhouse.

By the way, some varieties are good only for the table, and some are great only for pickling.

FIVE-STEM TREES

It's time to talk about varieties. I have never seen anything better than the large-fruited Larisa, Eternal Call and Princess. Larisa is especially good: on each bush she usually has 30-35 fruits, each of which weighs from 500 to 700 g (in good seasons, some grow up to 800-900 g). For the sake of this variety, I even gave up the well-known Bull's Heart, which is inferior to my new favorite in terms of early maturity, yield and taste. Moreover, Larisa (like Eternal Call and the Princess) bears fruit well both in open ground and in a greenhouse.

And a couple of years ago I made another discovery - a tomato tree, whose fruits are simply ideal for any type of canning. True, I didn’t immediately find an approach to it; I had to experiment quite a bit. For example, for seedlings, its hatched seeds should be sown not in boxes by one company, but separately in cups, 2/3 filled with fertile soil, which is added there as the plants grow until completely filled.

And since the seedlings will have grown to 17-20 cm by this time, I transplant them into larger containers - the lower halves of cut one and a half liter bottles. The whole procedure looks like this: I pour a little soil into the bottom of the container, then carefully remove the plants from the cups along with lumps of soil, lower them into bottles and fill them with fertile soil almost to the brim. I feed these seedlings in exactly the same way as described above.

After the leaves grow on the plants, I carefully cut off the tops above the fifth leaves with a sharp knife and place them in jars with water. And after some time, roots grow from these tops.

And after another week and a half, I plant them in the same half bottles. As a result, my number of tomato tree seedlings (and full-fledged, strong and healthy ones) doubles! I should also note here that those bushes that have been pruned develop after this at a certain slowdown and therefore do not outgrow, which, you see, is important.

When planting plants in the ground, I leave 70 cm gaps between them, and then I form bushes with five stems, removing all other stepsons (this also applies to tomato trees grown from the tops). But, again, there is one nuance: if you want to grow larger fruits on these trees, keep the formation of five stems until the end, and if you want to increase the yield (though the tomatoes will be a little smaller), leave two more stepsons on the plants . And, of course, tomato trees need to be tied to strong trellises.

Finally, I will say that after tomatoes, the second most important crop for me is hot peppers. My favorite variety is Ram's Horn. Its fruits are large, elongated, and in appearance, indeed, resemble the horns of a goat. Since these peppers are not very tall, I see no point in wasting useful planting space on them in greenhouse beds and grow them in old buckets.

If any of the readers have any questions, call or write - I will answer everyone.

About the features of growing tomato seeds for seedlings in the Urals

Having sorted the quality seeds, vegetable growers prepare for sowing. Seeds are selected the previous year from the lower branches of the strongest plants. The fruit then ripens until it is ready for seed collection.

1. Before planting, quality seeds are selected by dipping them in a 5% saline solution. You can sow only those that sink to the bottom.
2. Considering the susceptibility of seedlings to diseases, the seeds are treated. They are dipped for 10 minutes in a solution prepared from ½ cup of heated water mixed with 1 g of manganese (crystalline).
3. After dressing, the seeds are washed with settled water and dried.

In addition to this procedure, they need to be hardened. The volume and quality of the harvest depends on this. To do this, the following procedure is carried out:

1. The seeds are soaked for 2 days in water at a temperature of 18–19 °C.
2. After this, they are transferred to a saucer with ice water and placed in a freezer with a temperature of up to -3 ° C for three days.

They are sown in containers for growing seedlings. Having undergone hardening, the seeds are able to bear fruit on Ural soil, since this procedure affects increased root growth and increased photosynthetic activity. Despite the fact that the frost-free period here lasts only 60–80 days, tomatoes are considered a popular crop among the residents of the Urals. Having chosen the desired varieties and hardened the seedlings, summer residents collect about 15 kg of excellent quality fruits per meter.

The best varieties for greenhouses in the Urals

When choosing tomatoes, you should pay attention to several important aspects: growing season, type of plant growth (determinate or indeterminate), fertility and fruit size.

Early

Early varieties of tomatoes are considered the most suitable solution for cultivation in open soil. In a short, changeable summer, they have excellent time to ripen and bring a decent harvest. Typically, the growing season of representatives of early varieties does not exceed 100 days.

The plant forms very low, sparsely leafy bushes 45–55 cm high. The fruits of Titanic are small, round in shape, weighing 120–140 g. The tomato peel is elastic, does not crack, and has a smooth, shiny surface. With good care, you can collect 5-7 kg from one bush.

The pulp is dense, with a high juice content, tastes sugary, without sourness. The described variety has a number of advantages, including high yield, good adaptation to drought, and resistance to many diseases.

Wonderful lady

Another variety suitable for planting in the northern regions is the Fair Lady hybrid, the growing season of which varies between 95–100 days. During the growing process, the bush produces fairly large fruits of pronounced red color, weighing 180–210 g.

Beautiful Lady belongs to the type of low-growing crops, the height of which does not exceed 50 cm, which eliminates the need to tie the bushes to high supports. During the growth process, clusters containing 5–8 fruits are formed on the crop. The yield of the variety is 4.5 kg per plant when formed into one stem. The tomato is characterized by excellent resistance to a number of diseases, reduced lighting levels and sudden changes in weather.

Large-fruited

The goal of many vegetable growers when cultivating the vegetables described is to obtain high yields of large, weighty fruits. Specially created varieties of tomatoes, the main advantage of which are considered to be large berries weighing from 500 g, will certainly help in solving this problem.

Berdsky

Among large-fruited tomatoes, the most popular is Berdsky - a tall, early-ripening variety, characterized by high yield and low maintenance requirements. The height of the bushes reaches over one meter, which is why the plant needs tying and shaping.

Important! The variety shows the best yield results when the plant is formed into two stems.

Berd tomatoes have a classic round shape and traditional red color. But the berries are significantly distinguished by their size - the weight of one specimen can vary between 750–800 g. The fruits are juicy, with dense, fleshy pulp, and have an excellent tomato taste. Tomatoes are used for preparing snacks, salads, sauces and ketchups, and juices.

Gina

Among the low-growing plants with heavy fruits, one can note the Gina variety, the berries of which ripen 100–110 days after planting the planting material. The bushes of the crop are low, up to 50 cm, but due to the presence of large tomatoes on the shoots they need staking. Each season, one cluster produces 5–6 round-shaped fruits with a flattened upper part.

Tomatoes weighing about 400–500 g have a dense, crack-resistant peel, sweet, juicy and tight flesh. The main advantage of the vegetables described is their excellent keeping quality, transportability and long shelf life, up to two months.

King of Siberia

The King of Siberia rightfully deserves its name, as it is distinguished by large, massive fruits, the weight of which reaches over 1 kg. The bushes are tall, capable of growing up to two meters, so they require mandatory tying. The fruits of the crop are very juicy, fleshy, have a thin skin, and therefore cannot be used for long-term preservation. The color of the berries is light yellow. Due to their large size, they are not used for whole-fruit canning, but are suitable for preparing fresh juices, sauces, and salad preparations.

The best determinate tomato varieties for greenhouses

For growing tomatoes in northern climates, the optimal solution is a greenhouse, which provides protection from winds, frosts, heavy rains and other atmospheric phenomena. Experts identify several varieties of tomatoes that bear fruit well in greenhouse shelters, and their cultivation is not particularly difficult even for novice vegetable growers.

Bourgeois is a mid-early, determinate variety of tomatoes, suitable for planting indoors. The hybrid was created by breeders from Ukraine and registered in the State Register of Vegetable Crops of the Russian Federation relatively recently, in 2004. The growing season of the plant is 100–115 days. The bushes are of medium height, from 80 to 130 cm, and require high support.

You will be interested to know what indeterminate and determinate varieties of tomatoes are.

Bourgeois fruits visually look very beautiful, have a round shape and a bright purple color. The taste is pleasant, sweet, with a subtle sourness. The culture is characterized by good health, resistance to diseases, and excellent resistance to bad weather conditions. The variety's yield parameters are good - from 3 to 8 kg per bush.

Openwork

The Azhur tomato variety, with a mid-early ripening period of 100–110 days, belongs to the type of determinate plants, the height of which reaches 80–100 cm. The hybrid bears fruit with aesthetically attractive berries, weighing 240–280 g, round, slightly flattened, and red in color. The taste of tomatoes is traditional, tomato.

Some of the key advantages of the variety are the marketable appearance of the tomatoes, their elastic structure and their excellent taste. The berries have a dense, elastic skin, juicy and firm pulp, and do not crack.

The tomatoes described can be successfully canned, consumed fresh, made into winter preparations or a variety of dishes. The variety is undemanding in care, characterized by high immunity to diseases, and bears fruit well. You can get from 4 to 7 kg per plant.

Tomatoes are determinate and indeterminate, what is the difference?

Determinate tomatoes - low-growing varieties with limited growth, from 60 cm to 1 m

According to classification, they can be divided into subspecies:

• semi-determinant - stop growing after the formation of 10-12 brushes,
• superderminant - stop growing after the formation of the third brush. Stem height is 30 to 60 cm, does not require gartering or pinching.

Indeterminate (unlimited growth) - the tallest, stem growth is unlimited (from 2 m and above). For a good harvest, timely pinching, installation of supports and gartering are necessary. In risky farming areas, greenhouse cultivation is recommended.
