Orlik

Tomato 'Orlik' is a determinate, low-growing variety with a plant height of about 50-60 cm. It is a super early variety, ripening in 90-110 days from germination to fruiting. Plants form 8-10 trusses with round, smooth, and firm bright-orange fruits weighing 50-60 grams. The fruits have a sweet taste and high beta-carotene content, making them nutritious and beneficial.

The 'Orlik' variety is characterized by high yield — up to 5.2 kg per square meter, ensuring good harvest both in open ground and under plastic coverings. The fruits are suitable for fresh consumption, salad preparation, and whole-fruit canning. They store well and are resistant to blossom and root rot, simplifying care and harvest. The plant is also suitable for sparse harvesting, which is convenient for gardeners.

For growing tomato 'Orlik', it is recommended to sow seeds in seedlings at the end of March to early April at a depth of about 1 cm. After the appearance of the first true leaf, perform thinning, and after 55-65 days, transplant seedlings into the ground with an interval of 40x60 cm. It is important to provide regular watering, 2-3 feedings with complex fertilizers, soil loosening, weed control, and staking plants to supports. Calcium nitrate can be used for feeding, promoting healthy growth and increasing yield.
