Tomato MALINOVAYA MECHTA

Tomato "Malinovaya Mечta" is a high-yielding hybrid with distinctly raspberry-colored fruits and excellent flavor. The plant is determinate, with a height of 70 to 100 cm, making it suitable for cultivation both in open ground and in greenhouses. The fruits are round or slightly flattened, weighing from 150 to 420 grams, with a dense, slightly ribbed structure and more than six locules. Their rich raspberry hue and juiciness make them ideal for fresh salads, canning, tomato juice and paste, as well as pickling. The fruiting period ranges from 85 to 100 days from germination to harvest, classifying it as an early-maturing variety. The plant shows good resistance to bacterial diseases and tobacco mosaic virus, as well as drought and heat tolerance. The hybrid prefers warmth and light but can tolerate lower temperatures, although it is sensitive to frost. For optimal growth, it is recommended to train the plant as a single stem, removing suckers, and staking, which promotes better development and increased yield. The yield of this variety reaches 9.8–14.2 kg per square meter, making "Malinovaya Mечta" an attractive choice for gardeners and farmers. The fruits are aromatic, juicy, and sweet, especially valued when eaten fresh. Sowing seedlings is recommended in early March, and transplanting into greenhouses or open ground in May, with a planting scheme of 40×60 cm. At the end of the vegetative period, pinch off the growing tip, leaving 7–8 trusses, which extends the fruiting period and improves fruit quality.
