Yellow-fruited tomato is a variety of yellow tomatoes, distinguished by the bright color of the fruits and variety of shapes. Among popular yellow-fruited tomato varieties, there are early, mid-season, and late varieties, each with its own characteristics and ripening periods. These tomatoes are valued for their attractive appearance and good taste, making them popular for cultivation under various conditions.
One example is the Augustovskiy variety — a tall, mid-season indeterminate tomato that grows successfully both in open ground and in greenhouses. The plant is strong and spreading, with even fruit set, requires staking, and positively responds to fertilization. The fruits of this variety have a heart-shaped form, bright yellow color, and weigh between 400 to 600 grams. The flesh is juicy and succulent with a pleasant taste and aroma, making them ideal for fresh salads and other culinary dishes. Additionally, the fruits transport well over long distances, retaining their taste and appearance.
Another interesting variety is the Yellow Mikado tomato, which, despite not being officially registered in state registries, has received high ratings from gardeners for its taste. This is an early-ripening variety with a vegetative period of about 94-95 days. The fruits are large, round or flattened-round, with a smooth glossy skin and an average weight of 250-300 grams, up to 500 grams maximum. The flesh of Mikado is juicy, succulent, and tender, with many small seed chambers, giving the fruits a sweet taste. Tomatoes store well at the technical ripening stage, ripen well, and remain fresh for a long time. However, at high humidity, the fruits may crack near the stem. The yield of this variety is 6-8 kg per square meter, making it attractive for those who appreciate flavorful and decorative tomatoes.
