Variety Apple-tomato: 6 indicators

Recently, Swiss gardener Markus Kobelt managed to obtain a new apple-tomato hybrid. Currently, breeders are actively working to develop new varieties and plant hybrids.

More than 20 years of active research and experimentation were spent on this discovery.

First of all, the goal of breeding is to obtain valuable varieties characterized by high productivity, increased shelf life, and resistance to various diseases and pests.

Tomato and apple are unique fruits that have excellent taste. However, the differences in their structure, forms and growing conditions practically exclude the possibility of the existence of a hybrid between these plants.

Nevertheless, work is constantly underway. First, tomatoes were created, the variety of which is similar in appearance to apples: Siberian apple and Apple tomato. The fruits of these varieties have an external resemblance to apples (in shape), as well as a bright taste.

This tomato hybrid was obtained by Russian breeders. The Siberian apple tomato is a mid-season, high-yielding tomato suitable for growing in a greenhouse and unprotected soil in the southern regions. Bushes of indeterminate type reach 1.8 m in height, so it is necessary to stake the plants. Productivity - up to 8.5 kg per 1 m².

The advantages of this variety include:

• high productivity;
• excellent taste;
• good disease resistance.

Almost no shortcomings were identified.

• average weight 150 g;
• in a state of technical ripeness, the fruits have a soft pink color;
• sugar content and meaty consistency, which persists throughout the entire storage period.

This tomato hybrid was obtained by Russian breeders. The Siberian Apple tomato is a mid-season, high-yielding tomato.

The Paradise Apple tomato is planted both in open ground and in a film greenhouse. In many regions, climate conditions are not suitable for growing tomatoes, since the fruits do not have time to ripen before the onset of fogs, after which the leaves and stems of the plant turn black. Many varieties do not tolerate high humidity, sudden temperature changes, or prolonged absence of sun.

Despite the fact that caring for the Paradise Apple is not easy, gardeners and farmers prefer this tall variety and appreciate:

• for resistance to adverse weather;
• for the taste of the fruit;
• for early ripening of the crop.

Tomatoes do not crack during transportation and do not lose their attractiveness during long journeys. They contain more than 15% ascorbic acid. This vitamin strengthens the immune system, slows down cell aging, and helps remove toxins from the body.

Description of the variety

Their name speaks volumes about the high taste of tomatoes. On the tall bushes of the Paradise Apple, compact inflorescences are formed, on which, after 100 days, the first fruits ripen. They differ:

• rounded shape;
• smooth skin;
• fleshy pulp;
• pink or red.

One multi-chambered tomato weighs from 150 to 240 grams, but it is impossible to collect seeds, since there are practically no seeds in the fruit. In the garden, almost 4 kg of juicy tomatoes are harvested from one plant.

In the greenhouse they ripen a little longer than in the garden bed, illuminated from all sides by the sun. In open ground, the bush rises to 1.5 meters in height. The Paradise apple variety is tied to supports and 2 stems are left.

Seeds, which can be bought in specialized stores, are placed in a solution of Fitosporin or potassium permanganate.

After 12 hours, they are sent to containers with a mixture of peat and sand, having previously fed the soil with urea and superphosphate.

In order for tomatoes to give a good harvest, and up to 9 kg of sweetish fruits are collected from 1 square meter, each bush must be fed at least 4 times during the summer. The Paradise Apple growing in the garden is watered twice a week, if it doesn’t rain, and in the greenhouse they moisten it more often.

When the ovary is formed, the soil is fertilized. Pinching is done when the brushes appear. To prevent the tomato from growing upward, pinch the bush. After each watering, the soil should be loosened.

Disease resistance. Ripening of the crop both under the film and in the garden. Easy to care for.

Growing the variety

For good growth and fruiting, the Apples in the Snow tomato requires regular fertilizing, timely watering, warmth and sufficient lighting. The variety is grown by seedling method. Seeds can be sown in a greenhouse and thinned out after germination. But such tomatoes will have weak roots, which will negatively affect the yield.

Preparing and planting seeds

To determine the time of sowing seeds, subtract 45-50 days from the expected planting date. Usually sowing is done in early March.

Seed preparation consists of the following steps:

• Removing small and damaged seeds.
• Disinfection of seed material with a light pink solution of potassium permanganate.
• Treatment of seeds with growth stimulants: Epin, Zircon or Kornevin. This procedure increases their germination rate and resistance to adverse conditions.

In order for the sprouts to easily break out, the seeds are planted in a loose nutrient substrate. Garden soil filled with rotted manure is suitable for this. Plastic containers are filled with prepared soil and slightly moistened. Tomato seeds are planted to a depth of 1-1.5 cm. The crops are sprayed with warm water, covered with film and placed in a bright place. The air temperature in the room is constantly maintained at least +23°C. The soil is regularly moistened with a spray bottle, preventing the top layer from drying out.

After emergence of seedlings, the air temperature is lowered to +17...+18°C so that the sprouts do not stretch. If there is insufficient lighting in the room, the seedlings are illuminated with a fluorescent lamp to increase the daylight hours to 14-15 hours.

As soon as 2-3 true leaves form on the stem, the sprouts are watered and planted in cups or pots. They are planted to a depth of 4-5 cm. Diving promotes the active development of lateral roots, thanks to which the tomatoes grow strong and healthy. If the bushes are not developing well and the leaves have turned light green, they need to be fed with nitrogen-containing fertilizers, such as urea. Of the mineral complexes, potassium sulfate, ammonium nitrate or superphosphate are used, dissolving them in water.

Before planting in open ground, the plants are hardened off by taking them outside for 2 weeks. During the first days they should be outdoors for 2-3 hours. The time is gradually increased, and then the seedlings are left outside until planted on the plot or in the greenhouse. There should be no threat of frost during this period. In this way, tomatoes become accustomed to changes in air temperature, wind and direct sunlight.

Planting in a permanent place

Seedlings of the Apples in the Snow variety are planted in a permanent place no earlier than 1.5 months after sowing. It is placed in a greenhouse in the first ten days of May, and in unprotected soil after the end of spring frosts. The optimal time for planting young tomatoes in the garden in the northern regions is considered to be mid-June, when the soil warms up well. But you should be aware of possible frosts, which they will not tolerate.

The site is chosen to be sunny and windless. The best predecessors of tomatoes include cabbage, carrots and zucchini. It is not recommended to plant them after potatoes, peppers or eggplants. 7-10 days before transplanting the seedlings, the area is watered with Baikal EM 1 fertilizer, which promotes the proliferation of beneficial microorganisms and increases soil fertility.

Features of cultivation

Tomatoes variety Apples on the Snow are sown as seedlings in the first half of March. It is better to treat the seeds with a growth stimulant, which significantly improves germination.

Plants need lightweight, highly nutritious soil, consisting of a mixture of garden soil and humus. Seeds are sown in containers with a depth of 2 cm, sprayed with water and covered with film. You can use special mini-greenhouses. After germination, the containers are exposed to bright light. Plantings should be watered with warm, settled water, using a shallow watering can or spray bottle.

When the first pair of true leaves unfold, the plants dive into separate pots. Then the tomatoes are fed with complex fertilizer. It is recommended to feed weak shoots with nitrogen-containing preparations (for example, urea).

Planting in a permanent place, in a greenhouse or pots, is carried out in the first half of May. Tomatoes are moved to open beds closer to June, when the soil has completely warmed up. For 1 sq. m you can place no more than 4 bushes. Too many rows prevent tomatoes from developing and fruiting slows down.

During the season, plants are fed 3-4 times with mineral fertilizers based on phosphorus and potassium. The bush is slightly pinched; the lower leaves can also be removed.

Read in detail everything about tomato fertilizers:

• Organic, ready-made complexes, TOP of the best.

• Foliar, for seedlings, for picking.

Description of the Apple Lipetsk tomato variety, growing by seedling method and caring for bushes

The Apple Lipetsk tomato is intended for use in salads. The plant has an average ripening period. It is possible to use the fruits for juice production, and the smallest specimens are suitable for preservation.

The described variety is grown in open areas in the southern regions of Russia. If a vegetable grower lives in the middle zone, then a film greenhouse is required to obtain a harvest.

In Siberia and the Far North, the Lipetsk apple variety is grown in greenhouses or well-heated greenhouse blocks.

Characteristics and description of the variety

The characteristics and description of the variety are as follows:

1. The vegetative period of plant development from germination to the first fruits lasts 110-115 days.
2. The height of the bushes of the described tomato when grown in an open area reaches 150-160 cm. If the farmer uses a greenhouse to grow the plant, then the height of the bush can reach 170-180 cm.
3. Ripe fruits are colored red, but there are no spots near the stalk. Gradual ripening of the fruit occurs.
4. The average weight of the fetus ranges from 0.15-0.3 kg. Reviews from gardeners show that if you follow all the recommendations of experts on caring for tomatoes, you can get fruits weighing from 0.4 to 0.45 kg.
5. The fleshy and juicy pulp has few seed chambers.

As farmers note, unlike other varieties of tomatoes, the Apple Lipetsk variety has a yield per bush of 3 to 3.5 kg of fruit.

The disadvantage of tomatoes is the need to tie the bushes to trellises or install strong stands under the branches of the plant.

If this is not done, then tomatoes with a large mass will manage to break the bush due to the large weight of the resulting fruits. The bush is formed into 2 stems.

Obtaining seedlings from seeds

It is recommended to buy planting material from a well-trusted company that sells seeds. The entire seed fund is treated with hydrogen peroxide or a weak solution of potassium permanganate.

Plant the seeds in boxes filled with soil to a depth of 20 mm. The soil should contain organic and nitrogen fertilizers. Watering the planting material is done using a watering can.

The water should be at room temperature.

After this, the boxes are covered with glass, and the temperature in the room is raised to +24...+25°C.

When 2-3 leaves appear on the sprouts, they are picked. The seedlings are transferred to permanent soil only when the plants are 55-60 days old.

A week before this date they are hardened. The soil in the beds is loosened and complex mineral fertilizers are added to it. The sprouts are watered with warm water and then covered with warm material so that they do not die from a sudden drop in temperature. The format for planting young bushes is 0.4 × 0.5 or 0.5 × 0.5 m.

Caring for growing tomatoes

Watering the described plant is carried out once a week. It is not recommended to increase the frequency of watering, since due to increased soil moisture, the bushes may develop a fungal infection. The operation is carried out with warm water standing in the sun before sunrise or after sunset.

Plants are fertilized with several types of fertilizers. Initially, as the bushes grow and gain green mass, mixtures containing nitrogen are used.

To do this, use organic fertilizers or ammonium nitrate. During tomato flowering, potassium fertilizers are added to nitrogen solutions to feed it.

The formation of a bush begins with the elimination of side shoots. Only 2 stems are left.

For normal growth of a tomato, it needs oxygen and beneficial substances, which are supplied to it by the roots. To ensure gas exchange, it is recommended to loosen the soil under the bushes 1-2 times a week or mulch the soil. Weeding beds to remove weeds helps avoid the spread of fungal or bacterial infections and destroys some garden pests.

To protect bushes from various diseases, preventive measures are carried out. Plants are treated with drugs 3 times, and after each use of these drugs a break of 8-10 days is taken. If the disease has spread, then all diseased plants and fruits are destroyed, and the remaining bushes are treated with medicines, copper sulfate or infusions.

If dangerous garden pests (aphids, mites, Colorado potato beetles and other insects) appear on the site, it is recommended to destroy them with chemicals. If a gardener wants to get an environmentally friendly harvest, then folk remedies are used to kill insects. The bushes are treated with copper sulfate, soap solution or plant decoctions.

How to care for bushes

In order for tomatoes to produce a good harvest, they should be looked after. Please note the following content items:

Watering

Please note that watering young plants for the first couple of weeks after planting is not recommended. First, the bushes must be firmly rooted. Be careful about watering during the period of fruit formation and ripening. Do not allow the soil to dry out.

The soil

Plants need slightly acidic or neutral soil. In case of increased acidity, additional lime is added to the soil.

Loosening and weeding

It is important that the soil is loose. Loosening will help retain moisture and provide access to oxygen. Don't neglect this element of care. Get rid of weeds from plants in a timely manner.

Fertilizers

Tomato responds well to fertilizing. At the active growth stage, nitrogen fertilizers are needed to stimulate the development of greenery.

During the flowering period, products containing phosphorus and potassium are used. These elements contribute to the rapid formation of ovaries and fruit growth.

Garter and stepson

Apples in the snow do not have to be tied up or pinched. Procedures are carried out at the request of the owner.

Prevention

Since the variety is susceptible to the development of late blight, it is necessary to pay attention to prevention. Weed out weeds in a timely manner and ventilate greenhouses properly. Mulching the soil with peat has a good effect.

Avoid overfeeding with fertilizers. Periodically treat the bush with special products (Ridomil). If the plant is affected by a disease, it will have to be removed.

More about tomato

The characteristics and description of the tomato variety Apples on the Snow are simple and do not contain information that would be incomprehensible to a gardener. Universal vegetables are suitable for growing in open ground and in greenhouses. Those who like to eat fresh tomatoes in early spring plant them in pots and take them out onto balconies or loggias. Low-growing bushes do not cause much trouble, as they are characterized by compactness.

Apples in the snow are an early-ripening variety characterized by productivity. The bush has a minimum number of leaves. The height of the determinate plant varies between 65 cm. The small leaves are rich green in color, and the stem is several tones lighter.

Planting tomato seedlings in the soil

In May, seedlings are planted in greenhouses, unheated greenhouses. The depth of immersion in the ground is 10 cm. When the threat of spring return frosts has passed, the shelter can be removed. The distance between plants is of great importance for the prevention of late blight. Early ripening varieties are recommended to be planted according to a 30x40 pattern. But due to the variety’s tendency to late blight, it is best to plant them according to the 70x70 pattern. If there is little space, the distance in the row can be reduced to 50 cm. They are planted in open ground in the northern regions, for which the variety is intended, in mid-June. They focus on the possibility of frost, which tomatoes cannot tolerate.

In the northern regions, it is better to plant tomatoes on southern slopes, protected from cold northern winds. The soil must meet certain requirements. Do not plant tomatoes after nightshades, including eggplants and peppers. It is better to use the area where cabbage, pumpkin, etc. grew last year.

Soil acidity should be neutral or weakly acidic (pH 6.0-6.7).

If the soil on the site is acidic, it needs to be limed by adding lime or dolomite flour. A week before planting the plants, the area is watered with Baikal EM1 fertilizer. It promotes the formation of microorganisms beneficial to tomatoes.

When planting plants, they are immersed in the soil up to the lower (not true) leaves. If the plants are very tall, overgrown or elongated, lay them on their sides, with their tops facing south. Urgas fertilizer (half a teaspoon) is applied to the bottom of the hole. Water, wait until the water is absorbed and sprinkle with soil a third or fourth of the length of the trunk.

Growing seedlings

Tomatoes need plenty of heat and light to thrive. They are grown mainly from seedlings. You can plant them in a greenhouse or thin out the crops, but such plants will have a weak root system, which will affect the yield. Do not sow seedlings too early. It needs to be planted at the age of 30 days. Therefore, you need to count 40 days from the expected date.

Preparing seeds for sowing contains several stages:

1. Calibration (remove small and damaged ones).
2. Disinfection (treated with potassium permanganate).
3. Stimulation (treatment with biostimulants, for example, honey or onion peel infusion).
4. Bubbling (air saturation using an aquarium compressor)..

Prepare the soil:

• It should be light so that the sprouts come out easily. It can be composed of 7 parts of peat, part of turf soil with the addition of sawdust. You can mix peat (3 parts) with humus (1 part) and add half a portion of sawdust and humus.
• You can fill the prepared soil with mineral fertilizers. One and a half kilograms of ammonium nitrate, 4 kg of superphosphate, a gram of zinc sulfate, potassium permanganate, copper sulfate and 3 g of borax are added per cubic meter of the mixture. These fertilizers can be applied later.

The prepared seeds are sown in the soil to a depth of 2 cm. Watered, covered with film and placed in a warm place. The temperature should not be lower than 20°C. After a few days, sprouts appear. In order for the seed coats to be easily removed from the seedlings, you can water the soil several times with warm water. The boxes are opened and placed in a sunny place. The room temperature is reduced to 18°C ​​so that the tomatoes do not stretch.

Avoid overwatering to prevent plants from dying from blackleg.

One of the mistakes is the thickening of crops. You should not sow seeds for future use. If the sprouts grow too densely, it is better to remove the excess immediately, otherwise they will stretch out and become unusable.

After the plants have formed 2-3 true leaves, they are watered generously and dropped into a new container. Usually this is day 20. The planting depth is about 5 cm. You can use deep boxes or 200-gram plastic glasses. During a dive, the tip of the root breaks off and lateral roots begin to actively develop. This helps strengthen the root system.

For a week, raise the temperature to 25°C. If the weather is cloudy or the amount of light is insufficient for another reason, you need to supplement the seedlings with a special fluorescent lamp (phytolamp) so that the daylight hours are at least 14 hours. An alternative is to supplement with potassium.

The room temperature in sunny weather is set 3-5 degrees higher than in cloudy weather. At night the temperature should be between 8 and 10°C.

If seedlings are planted in open ground, they must first be hardened off. To do this, the boxes are taken outside for 2 weeks, accustoming them to wind, sunlight and temperature fluctuations. First for several hours, increasing the time every day, and then they are completely left on the street. Of course, if there is no threat of frost at this time. During the hardening period, reduce the amount of watering. Before planting, you need to treat the seedlings against late blight. The seedlings are fed with mineral fertilizers (potassium sulfate, ammonium nitrate and superphosphate) or.

Growing tomatoes in the country

Before planting tomatoes in open ground, sowing and growing seedlings indoors is carried out. For better germination, the seeds are pre-soaked in salt water.

The soil chosen is loose and nutritious. A mixture of leaf soil and humus is used as soil. Seeds are planted in containers, immersed to a depth of 1.5-2 cm. Germination is carried out at a temperature of 22-24°C.

The container with the sprouts is placed in a well-lit place and regularly sprayed with heated water. After several leaves appear, the seedlings can be planted in different pots. Ready-made complex fertilizers will not interfere.

In the first days of May, seedlings can be planted in greenhouses. Plants are moved to open ground when the threat of night frosts has passed. As a rule, this occurs no earlier than the end of May.

Be responsible when choosing a landing site. It is undesirable to plant tomatoes in the same area for two years in a row.

They also choose their neighbors carefully. Gardeners do not recommend placing tomatoes near potatoes or eggplants. A combination of carrots, onions, beans or pumpkin is suitable.
