Tomato Krasnogvardeets

Tomato Krasnogvardeets is a medium-early determinate variety, suitable for both open ground and greenhouses. Plants in open ground reach 70-80 cm, while in greenhouse conditions they can grow up to 130-170 cm. The plant forms 1-4 stems depending on growing conditions, which promotes good development and high yield. The variety is stress-resistant and adapted to various climatic conditions, making it popular among gardeners and hobbyists.

The fruits of tomato Krasnogvardeets have an elongated, finger-like shape, 12-14 cm long, bright red color, and smooth surface without green spots at the stem attachment. The weight of the first fruits reaches 130 g, while subsequent fruits weigh 65-95 g. The flesh is juicy, sweet, and meaty, with a dense and elastic skin that prevents cracking during canning. Thanks to these qualities, the fruits are ideal for fresh consumption, cooking various dishes, and especially for winter preparations such as pickling and preserving.

Growing this variety requires following certain agronomic practices: seeds are sown in March, maintaining optimal temperature and humidity for germination. Seedlings are pricked out at the 1-2 true leaf stage and transplanted into the ground when they reach 6-7 leaves and the first flower cluster appears. It is recommended to water sparingly but abundantly, and to apply magnesium and potassium fertilizers during the vegetative and fruiting periods. Harvesting occurs gradually throughout the season, allowing for fresh tomatoes to be enjoyed for a long time.
