In the middle of winter, gardeners and gardeners begin to acquire seeds for planting seedlings. Tomatoes, the best varieties and the reviews about which we will consider today are sold in stores in huge quantities. Almost every novice vegetable grower, choosing from the assortment, focuses on the external data of the variety, but not on the recommendations for planting, and this is wrong. Which tomato seeds are best for open field and which are suitable for growing in greenhouses? This is what you need to pay attention to. As part of this review, we will try to help as much as possible with the choice of the most suitable variety.

How to choose the right tomato seeds: gardeners reviews

Any gardener who has been working on his site for several years will say that the variety should be chosen as adapted as possible to the climate of the region and to the characteristics of the soil. For example, in the southern regions, tomatoes can grow both on high-quality black soil and on mixed soil. In varieties adapted to the south, the leaves will grow in such a way as to hide the fruits from the excessively scorching sun.

If you need to grow tomatoes in northern latitudes, then you need to choose those that are specially bred for the climate. These are cold-resistant, early maturing. Such varieties will be demanding on the composition of the soil, the leaves on them are more rare than those of those bred for the south. The sparsely growing foliage allows the fruit to receive the maximum amount of sunlight, warmth and minerals.

Producers of tomato seeds, according to gardeners' reviews, rarely indicate regional destination on packages, and you have to choose the most suitable one yourself, which is why we wrote this information.

It is also important to pay attention to the ripening time. Almost everything is suitable for the southern regions, because the harvest can be obtained from the latest varieties. For the northern and eastern regions of Russia, only early maturing are suitable, for middle band - early and mid-season.

A good harvest cannot be obtained if you do not take care of the tomatoes, including the stable tying of the bushes. If there is no time or desire for this, then it is better to choose undersized variety... The bushes will be compact, will not take up much space and will save time on tying.

Tomato classification by type of growth

When choosing, it is worth paying attention to this information in order to get a harvest for sure. The varieties are classified as follows:

  1. Indeterminate varieties are those where the central stem grows indefinitely. For the most part, they are suitable for growing in greenhouses, but they can also bear fruit well in the southern latitudes in the open field.
  2. Determinant. If you are thinking about which tomato seeds are best for open ground, gardeners' reviews will be almost unanimous: these are the ones. The bushes are medium in size, bear fruit well without sheltering a greenhouse in any regions of Russia. Early ripe.
  3. Superdeterminate. Ultra early ripening varieties, undersized, adapted for regions with a capricious, cold climate.

Choice by purpose

An important factor in choosing tomato seeds is their purpose. That is, what they will be used for: salted, for fresh salads, for juice or long fresh storage. You need to read the following information:

  • - These are large fruits with thin skin and aromatic, fleshy pulp;
  • for canning - these are small and even small fruits, few seeds, tight pulp and dense skin;
  • universal - medium fruits, tasty juicy pulp, tight skin, suitable for salads and juice making, and for canning;
  • for storage - only late-ripening varieties with good keeping quality, tight skin are selected, fruits are small and dense.

The color, size, flavor and shape of tomatoes are not the main criteria, and their choice depends only on personal preference.

Should I choose a pure variety or a hybrid?

Any novice vegetable grower asks this question. To determine which tomato seeds are best, you need to familiarize yourself with the advantages and disadvantages of hybrids and pure varieties.

Advantages of a pure variety: low cost of seeds, you can independently harvest seeds in the future, stable characteristics.

Cons of the variety: lower yields compared to hybrid tomatoes, low resistance to various diseases.

Pluses of hybrids: high yields, stable fruiting, amicable ripening, resistant to diseases, excellent presentation.

Cons: seeds are more expensive than varietal seeds, it will not be possible to prepare material for further planting on your own.

How to pick up seeds?

You need to buy planting material only in specialized stores. If in doubt about a particular variety, simply consult the seller.

The package must contain the main characteristics of the variety. When planting tomatoes for the first time, you cannot stop at one variety, you need to take at least four, and then choose the most suitable one from them. We've covered the best tomato seeds reviewed, but everyone has their own opinion, experiment!

How to harden seeds and protect them from pests?

Seed treatment in potassium permanganate will protect against viruses. You need to dilute a gram of powder in a glass of water, place the seeds in cheesecloth and soak in the solution for twenty minutes, then rinse with water.

After washing, the seeds must be hardened. In the same gauze (wet), place them in the refrigerator on the bottom shelf. In two days, the material is ready for planting! Hardened seeds will produce strong seedlings that will not be afraid of cold weather!

Even the best Siberian tomato seeds for greenhouses, according to gardeners, can give a low yield when the temperature fluctuates. This is why it is highly recommended to harden the seed.

Last time I already talked about, and also in the article mentioned the timing of planting and how to choose the soil for tomatoes. Here, at the request of readers, I want to pay attention to the seeds. After all, few people know, especially from young gardeners, which varieties are the best and most productive for Siberia.

Of course, the best thing would be to pick them from fresh tomatoes that are proven, but some do not have such an opportunity or are simply reluctant to suffer with picking.

Therefore, I will say right away: buy seeds from trusted sellers and see the time when they were harvested on the pack.

All tomatoes are divided into groups according to the type (species) of the bush:

1. Determinant;

2. Semi-determinant;

3. Indeterminate.

The determinant group can be planted both in open ground and in a greenhouse (greenhouse). They do not require to be tied up and pinned due to the density of lateral shoots on the bush. They also include standard tomatoes - they have a smaller bush height and are planted mainly by those who need less care for this vegetable.

Semi-determinant varieties are intended for open field planting. These tomatoes grow very long and, if the top is not cut off at a height of 80 cm, then they can grow up to 120 cm. They can also not be pinned in order to harvest a lot. But, if you are an experienced gardener, then you can resort to this technique for quick fruiting of the bush.

Well, at the end of the third subspecies are indeterminate. They have an excellent harvest, a friendly return of fruits, grow above 120 cm. These varieties require pinching and forming tomatoes and also an obligatory support for a garter. If we compare them with determinant ones, then they have a much longer fruiting, more yield, well, the fruits ripen accordingly later.

As they say, what seeds you pick up, so they will grow with you. Let's decide on what parameters we will define plants.

1. Let's start with the terms of ripening, they are definitely needed for Siberia.

2. Taste and where it can be applied (salad, preservation, juice).

3. What is the height of the bush? Many people want to know this too.

4. Well, and accordingly the mass and yield of the tomato.

Since Siberia does not have such a long summer as we would like, we will consider early and mid-early varieties.

The best varieties of tomatoes for open ground.

Tomatoes of the Siberian series for open ground (low - up to 80 cm, but large-fruited): "Siberian trump card", "Uvalen", "Lyuban". In addition to them, new, very early ripening tomatoes "Buyan", "Leader of the Redskins", "Flash", "Pink Souvenir", "Blush of Petersburg", "Sunny Bunny", "Nimble" are suitable for open ground.

Ultra-ripe tomatoes... Of greatest interest are ultra-early ripening varieties and hybrids, because even in cold and short summer conditions, they can be grown without seedlings. But for this it is necessary to sow in the very first days of May under a good shelter, immediately in place, necessarily on insulated soil (for example, on a 10-12-centimeter layer of down and feathers from an old pillow under the soil to a depth of 15-20 cm). Usually these tomatoes are just recommended for open ground. As a rule, their fruits do not exceed 100-150 g, and the height of the plants is about 50 cm. These tomatoes usually do not feed. From the varieties (you can take your own seeds) these are "Flash", "Buyan", "Pink souvenir", "Sunny Bunny" and "Duckling". From hybrids (you cannot use your seeds, because they are often underdeveloped and do not transmit their properties to the offspring, and therefore it is not known what will grow from such seeds) one can name the tomatoes "Leader of the Redskins", "Katya", "Ninulya", "Blush Petersburg "," Nimble "," Solerosso ", which mature in the open field even near St. Petersburg. There are also large-fruited super-early hybrids "Bringing good luck" and "Gayas Bekseev", which produce fruits weighing about 200 g and more. Of course, all these tomatoes grow well in greenhouses.

Note.In the North-West, it is better not to plant tomatoes in open ground. They should be kept under cover (better not under a film, but under a double lutrasil or spunbond). In practice, they never fully ripen, and very often a beautiful green fruit, when cut inside, turns out to be affected by late blight.

Small-fruited tall tomatoes for tall greenhouses.From the early-ripening variety "Bon Appetita" has small red fruits weighing about 100 g, but there are up to 100 of them, and most importantly, the fruits are tied in any weather. "Red Caramel" and "Yellow Caramel" are plum-shaped, small-fruited (only about 40 g), but very abundant, sweet and decorative hybrids with a long fruiting period.

Large-fruited tall tomatoes for tall greenhouses. Hybrid "Semko" - disease-resistant, early maturing, with fleshy sweet red fruits 200-400 g each, as well as "Semko 18", F1 hybrids ("Big person" - large red, "Juggler" - red).

From mid-ripening tomatoes, a group of hybrids "Vera, Nadezhda, Lyubov" can be distinguished with red fruits weighing about 230 g; they have a long shelf life. Two hybrids - "Zhenaros" and "Belle" - produce red fruits weighing more than 300 g. They are interesting in that they can set fruits when high temperatures (As you know, usually tomato pollen is sterilized at temperatures above 35-40 ° C, and in summer in greenhouses without forced ventilation, the temperature usually reaches 40-42 ° C).

The "Caliber" hybrid has red fruits weighing about 200 g for salad purposes, the "Ognivo" hybrid is distinguished by abundant fruiting, and the "Poet" hybrid is resistant to temperature fluctuations and sets fruit in any weather (the flesh is fleshy, tasty, the fruits can reach a weight of 600-650 d).
