Tomato Orange Miracle

Tomatoes, bred beyond the Urals, tolerate harsh climatic conditions much better than others. However, even these cultures need to be applied correctly and clearly. Therefore, great attention should be paid to the features of the Orange Miracle variety.

The official description indicates that this is a plant of Siberian selection. It belongs to the number of indeterminate hybrids. The orange miracle can be successfully grown indoors. The height of the bushes can reach 2 m. There are mentions that they will be able to grow up to 3 m.

The main stems are surrounded by several lateral shoots. The leaves are of medium size, there are relatively few of them. The tuberosity of the leaf surface is noted. The roots are strong and develop horizontally.

The Orange Miracle berries are round in shape. The size of the tomatoes is not too large. Their average weight is 0.2 kg. Each node produces a minimum of 5 tomatoes, which is exactly what allows you to guarantee high productivity.

The flesh of the Orange Miracle is firm and devoid of a hint of wateriness. The share of dry matter reaches 5%. The expressive sweetness of the berries is noted. Sour and bitter notes are not mixed with it, which is pleasant. The flavor ensemble of this variety is suitable both for fresh use and for canning.

This plant belongs to the mid-early group. Under normal conditions, 90-110 days pass between the hatching of the green growth and the appearance of the finished crop. However, gardeners should always be aware that the weather can distort this established schedule. In a greenhouse, harvesting can be 14-20 days earlier than in open ground.

The productivity of the Orange Miracle is very high. However, for some reason, the exact figures are not mentioned in the sources. Only the mass of individual tomatoes and their number per node are known.

If you decide to use the seeds directly in the open ground, you must wait until the first ten days of May. But sometimes they are first planted in March in seedling containers and developed over the normal period. Such seedlings are ready by May. When planting in greenhouses, the soil should warm up to 20 degrees. If sowing or planting seedlings is carried out in an open garden, you must wait until it warms up to 25 degrees at least.

Bushes should be placed on ordinary garden beds according to the 400x400 mm system. This is the opinion of the authors of most publications devoted to such a tomato. But sometimes there are recommendations to make a row spacing of 400 mm, and leave the gap between the holes at 550-600 mm.

Key recommendations include:

• watering with warm water;
• systematic removal of weeds;
• feeding.

Normally, it is necessary to weed not only the areas near the bushes, but also the aisles. It is most justified to do this after watering. For the best nutrient supply to plants, alternate organic and mineral supplements. Among insects, the main threat to the Orange Miracle is the Colorado potato beetle. You can fight it only after the end of fruiting or even before it begins.

When transplanting, this variety needs growth stimulants. It is equally important to use wood ash. If possible, it is best to switch from conventional irrigation to drip irrigation. Seedlings are advised to immediately be fixed on a support. The garter is renewed as it develops.

Watering the Orange Miracle tomato should normally be every 10 days. More frequent irrigation is only recommended for hot dry periods. For mulching use:

• hay;
• straw;
• chopped grass.
