Characteristics and description of the tomato variety Radunitsa, reviews of gardeners
Tomato Radunitsa is a bright representative of orange-fruited tomatoes, which captivates not only with its appearance, but also with its taste. You need to plant them at least once on your site, and every season you will want to do it again and again.
Description of the variety
The tomato is mid-season, ripening period ranges from 115 to 120 days. Determinate, compact bush, reaches a height of about half a meter. Stems are not too branched, internodes are short. The leaves are similar in shape to potato leaves, have a dark green color.
According to all characteristics, Radunitsa is a very fruitful tomato. Indoors, you can collect almost 13 kilograms of ripe tomatoes from one square meter, and outdoors - up to 11 kilograms. Of course, these are not the best indicators, but the result is quite decent.
Radunitsa is suitable for growing both outdoors and in greenhouses. It is cultivated by both the owners of summer cottages and farmers.
The fruits of the Radunitsa tomato are shaped like a rocket. In an immature form, they have a green color and a characteristic spot at the stalk. Ripe tomato has a yellow-orange color, not too bright. It contains 4 to 6 nests.
The weight of one fruit reaches 170-200 grams. In this regard, the planting density, the amount of dressings and the method of forming the bush are crucial. With good care, the fetus can weigh up to 300 grams, but it will already be a real giant.
Pros and cons
The density of the fruit is medium, the skin is thin and very soft. Great for preparing salads. The pulp is quite sweet, there is very little semen. There is also a small amount of seeds. On the one hand, this is very good, but on the other hand, for those who want to collect their seeds, it is a real disaster.
The flower can form an ovary well both outdoors and indoors. Dry substances and sugar are contained in increased amounts. The fruits perfectly tolerate transportation and are well stored for a long period.
Growing recommendations
Before planting in open ground, seeds must be sown a month in advance. The method is called seedling. They dive into open ground according to the 50 * 70 principle, leaving the distance between the holes at least half a meter. Leaving more will only get better.
The formation of the Radunitsa tomato bush is carried out, as a rule, in 2 stems. They just need a garter. Most often, the wire is pulled in two rows, and twigs are attached to it, capturing the lower tiers of the bushes.
Reviews about Radunitsa tomatoes are mostly positive. Summer residents unanimously emphasize the excellent taste of tomatoes, their good yield. The variety is not particularly whimsical, does not require additional care.Ripe fruits are suitable both for conservation and for fresh consumption. However, it is not very recommended to preserve them entirely, since a large tomato does not fit well into the jar. The cultivation of this variety involves the use of tomatoes as salads or for processing.
Gardeners leave many positive reviews about Radunitsa tomatoes. Despite this, this variety of tomatoes is only gaining popularity in our country. Those summer residents who have at least once tried to grow wonderful yellow tomatoes on their plot are in a hurry to recommend them to friends and acquaintances.
I fully agree with the description of the Radunitsa variety. Indeed, I tried to plant it once and now every year I use soot in a larger quantity than everyone else. And I recommend this variety to everyone!
