Tomato Evolution

Tomato Evolution is a productive salad hybrid of the latest generation, bred specifically for growing in greenhouses in garden plots. This mid-season plant has earned the attention of gardeners for its rare taste properties for tomatoes and relative ease of cultivation.

The culture was obtained by a young agrarian company "Partner" under the guidance of a specialist O.D. Kiramov. Enrolled in the State Register in 2018. The hybrid is intended for cultivation exclusively in closed facilities, in various regions of Russia.

The crop is indeterminate, tall (170-200 cm), with no growing point, so it is ideal for growing in greenhouses. In terms of ripening, the culture belongs to the mid-early category. In other words, if you plant it at the age of 65 days, then the first fruits can be picked up in 40-45 days. During the growing season, the plant forms 5-7 seedlings, on which 5-7 large-sized (up to 350 g) intensely pinkish fruits ripen. The first brush is formed immediately after 7-8 leaves, and subsequent brushes, taking into account the short internodes, are formed more often.

The main purpose of the culture is the use of fresh fruits.

The growing conditions for the hybrid are limited to greenhouses.

Bushes are powerful, with thick stems. Leaves are medium in size, greenish in color.

Speaking about the advantages of culture, we note the following:

• high yield;

• early ripeness of fruits;

• good keeping quality of ripe tomatoes;

• tolerance to long-term transportation;

• excellent presentation;

• excellent taste;

• long fruiting time;

• the presence of natural resistance to a significant part of the pathologies of nightshade crops;

• versatility in the use of fruits.

There are also disadvantages to culture:

• the inability to use its seeds for further crops;

• the need to carry out the pinching procedure;

• the crop is not grown in open soils.

The fruits of the plant, for the most part, are roundly flattened in configuration, slightly ribbed, but some have a slightly elongated end ("nose"), which is rare for large-fruited fruits. This feature gives the fruit a heart-shaped shape, adding some fun, and improving their perception.

The fruits ripen and gain a pinkish color evenly, there are no green spots in the region of the stalks. The color of unripe fruits is light greenish.

The peel of the fruit is compacted, which protects them from cracking. In the context of the fruits, they fully correspond to their prefix "beef" - they are juicy, fleshy and sugary. There are several seed chambers, but they are very modest in size. The taste is excellent, the acidity level is minimal.

The fruits are quite transportable, they can be stored without deformation for a long time. The stalks are articulated. When forming bushes, 1-2 stems are left.

The fruit tastes sweet, the sourness inherent in tomatoes is practically not felt.

Fruits ripening time - 105-110 days (mid-ripening culture).

The plant is high-yielding - up to 17.0 kg / sq. m.

They are planted in greenhouses approximately 50-60 days after sowing the seeds.

The standard planting scheme is 3-4 plants per 1 m2.

The plant is cultivated exclusively in protected soils, and planted with 3-4 bushes per 1 m2. The plant is led in 1-2 stems, only under this condition a high degree of yield is achieved, and the fruits are formed of dimensional and high quality.

Irrigation should be drip, root moistening is allowed. Watering is carried out as needed, the soil should not be allowed to dry out.

Despite the powerful and thickened main stems of plants, a garter to the supports is necessary, since weighty fruits contribute to deformation of both stems and brushes.

After two weeks after transplanting the seedlings into greenhouses, pinching is carried out. Upon reaching the growth of the bushes up to 80 cm, this measure is carried out systematically, once every 7 days.

Fertilizers are added every 14 days. At the same time, it is more rational to use ready-made mineral compositions intended specifically for tomatoes. For example, Fertiku, Geru, Agricola. It will be useful to spray the bushes with boric acid, as well as the addition of organic matter.

For Evolution, strict adherence to agrotechnical rules is necessary. It is not difficult to maintain the desired level of crop yield; it is quite enough to adhere to the traditional sequence of feeding and irrigation.

New Generation Hybrid Crop Evolution has been designed with a natural level of resistance to most nightshade crop diseases. Due to its early maturity, it is able to avoid the sabotage of the main enemy - late blight of tomatoes.

It is extremely important that condensation does not accumulate in greenhouses, stimulating the appearance of putrefactive processes, and the occurrence of many other diseases that are intensively developing in humid conditions. Therefore, the main preventive measure for closed structures is their systematic ventilation.

If a fungus enters the greenhouse, it must be immediately treated with fungicides. Traditionally, complex substances are used here, designed to counter various types of fungal pathologies ("Acrobat", "Ridomil", Bordeaux mixture).

When aphids, whiteflies, scoops and other harmful insects suddenly appear in greenhouses, insecticides are used (more often they use Aktellik, Fitoverm, Iskra).
