Sevryuga tomato variety

Sometimes, due to the very strong similarity in appearance, confusion arises in the names of tomato varieties. Such a story happened with Sevryuga, which many call Pudovik. If you get acquainted with the data of the State Register of Plants of the Russian Federation, you can make sure that Pudovik is present in the list of crops that have passed variety testing, but Sevryuga is not in it. Nevertheless, the described variety is very popular with gardeners, it is grown in all regions of Russia in open and protected ground. Not a hybrid.

Description

The culture is declared as determinant, with a height of 80 cm to 1.5 meters. Although there are gardeners who claim that in a greenhouse a plant can exceed 2.5 meters. Moderate branching, stems are thin, not strong. Leaves are green, long-petiolate, regular in shape. The foliage of the bush is medium. The inflorescences of the variety are simple, the stalk is articulated.

Sevryuga fruits are round-heart-shaped (in contrast to the heart-shaped Pudovik) or flat-round, with a ribbed surface, rather large in size - from 300 to 500 grams. But the originators claim that with proper care, it is possible to grow a kilogram or one and a half kilogram specimen. The tomato skin is glossy, not very thick. An unripe tomato of light green color, with a faint spot at the stalk. At the stage of ripeness, the color becomes red-crimson. The pulp is very fleshy, juicy, of moderate density, sweet. There are more than 4 seed chambers, but they are small, located closer to the wall of the fruit. By the quality of the pulp, the variety can be attributed to beefs. The taste is excellent.

Agrotechnics

In different regions, it is best to grow tomatoes through seedlings. Sevryuga seeds are sown in March. Planting in the ground is carried out when the seedlings are 60 days old. Planting density - 3 bushes per 1 square meter. But many gardeners plant 2 plants in one hole at once. As the bushes grow, they must be tied up, otherwise the stems will not withstand the load and will fall. They form less often in 1 stem, more often in 2 - 4. The culture is very responsive to watering and feeding. But with waterlogging, especially in protected ground, the skin of the fruit may crack.

Sevruga has won respect for its ease of cultivation, which does not prevent it from showing excellent yields. The only drawback of the variety is the unsuitability of tomatoes for whole-fruit canning.
