    How to care

    Watering

    Moisten the soil before germination; do not over-moisten

    💡Tips
    • For a greenhouse, sowing often begins in February; for open ground - closer to March (guideline 60–65 days before planting).
    • Before sowing, the seeds can be soaked for 12–24 hours (not necessary, but it speeds up germination).

    Temperature range
    Optimal for growth and ovary 20°–28° during the day; Can't stand frost
    Lighting
    Full sun (at least 6–8 hours of direct light)
    Also suitable: On hot days, light diffused partial shade in the greenhouse (shading with film) is acceptable.

    Frequently asked questions(5)

    This is a decorative striped variety: yellow-green or orange stripes are visible on a red background. The pulp is juicy, with a slight sourness; fruits are set in clusters (up to ~12 pieces per cluster according to the manufacturer).

    The variety card indicates a growing season of 95–115 days from sowing to ripening (depending on conditions and region). In open ground, the timing is usually closer to the upper limit; in a greenhouse it can be shorter.

    Yes. The variety is indeterminate: without pinching and gartering, the bush thickens, illumination and tying deteriorate. Typically leave 1-2 main stems and remove side shoots regularly.

    Often this is the natural aging of the lower tier during fruiting. If the yellowness is rapid and goes upward, check the watering (both waterlogging and drought), nutrition (nitrogen, magnesium deficiency), pests and diseases. If infection is suspected, remove severely affected leaves and do not water from above.

    In the descriptions of the variety they give a guideline of up to ~10 kg per 1 m² with good care; in practice, the result depends on planting density, climate, greenhouse and nutrition.

    Benefits and nutrition

    Like other tomatoes, it is rich in lycopene (a carotenoid), vitamin C, potassium and antioxidants; supports dietary diversity. Specific “medicinal” effects are not a substitute for medical advice.
