“Good variety for greenhouse cultivation. The bushes are compact and several plants can be planted in a small area. I especially liked the salting. Tomatoes fit well in jars and will not crack.

“I found out about this variety quite recently. A friend advised. I also decided to host Biathlon F1. The seedlings sprouted amicably, after disembarking to a permanent place, they quickly got used to it and did not get sick. Tomatoes began to ripen early and almost all at once. This was especially pleasing. I was able to immediately roll them into jars, and not wait for the rest of the harvest. In general, it remained pretty. I will plant next year. "
