An interesting situation occurs with tomato hybrids - many experienced gardeners, especially those who grow tomatoes for themselves and their families, are in no hurry to grow them. And the point is not so much that seeds have to be bought anew each time. Rather, no matter how much they are praised in advertising descriptions, when fresh, the taste of few tomato hybrids can compete with the taste of varietal tomatoes, especially large-fruited ones. And if tomatoes are stored for a long time and are transportable, then they certainly have more to do with the "rubber and plastic world" than with the garden environment. And for those who sell tomatoes on the market and seek to have regular customers, the taste of the tomatoes sold can no longer matter, so gardeners bypass hybrids, even despite their good yield and disease resistance.
Tomato Tyler f1 refutes many of the prevailing ideas about the properties of hybrid tomatoes and is a fruitful and incredibly tasty hybrid. In addition, it has many more interesting properties and characteristics. This article is devoted to its description and properties.
History of appearance in Russia
Perhaps, especially for all summer residents who strive not only to grow tomatoes for themselves, but also to sell their surplus crops, seeds of hybrid tomatoes from the Japanese company Kitano appeared on the seed market five years ago.
They were really sweet, juicy with the real spirit of tomatoes, but at the same time they were well stored and easily moved for many hundreds of kilometers. True, they appeared initially on the territory of Ukraine, and for the most part Russian gardeners could only envy and salivate, hoping to get such interesting seeds.
Of course, as in everything else, there were disappointments and successes, but on the whole, the description of the properties of these hybrids was confirmed. And now Russian gardeners have the opportunity to choose not only tomato varieties, but also to try various Kitano hybrids according to their taste. Initially, these hybrids received only a digital designation, and only after a while the most popular of them acquired their own name. So it happened with the Tyler tomato, which, according to consumer reviews in Ukraine, in recent years ranked first in popularity among indeterminate tomatoes.
Description of the hybrid
Tomato Tyler belongs to the indeterminate group of tomatoes, which means that tomato bushes are distinguished by unlimited growth and development, including in height. Kitano specialists strongly recommend using their indeterminate hybrids only for growing in greenhouses. Outdoors, their behavior and yield can be unpredictable.
Tomato bushes are quite powerful with a good and strong root system. Leaves - rich green - abundantly cover all the stems.
By the way, tomatoes in this hybrid are formed on the brushes, and with abundant and balanced nutrition, up to 9-10 fruits can form on the brush.
Interestingly, in good conditions, Tyler's tomato is able to lay even double brushes of 12-14 tomatoes each.
In terms of ripening, the hybrid belongs to medium early tomatoes. On average, it needs 95-100 days from germination to the moment when the tomatoes ripen in the first cluster. In greenhouses, when suitable conditions are created, it can begin to bear fruit at the earliest possible date.
In this case, all the energy will go not for further growth, but for the accelerated formation of fruits.
A feature of Tyler's tomato is the demand for enhanced nutrition. Therefore, the yield of tomatoes is largely determined by the growing conditions, as well as the quantity and quality of dressings. On average, 8-12 kg of tomatoes can be obtained from one square meter of planting.
The Tyler hybrid is distinguished by good resistance to many diseases - fusarium, verticellosis, tomato mosaic virus, bacterial cancer.
Differs in excellent fruit set, even under stressful conditions (low temperature, insufficient illumination, or, conversely, heat). And if the ovaries have already formed, then even despite the heat, the tomato brushes will continue to ripen. Given these properties, as well as its early maturity, Tyler's tomato can be grown twice a season - in late spring, early summer and late summer, in autumn. This is especially attractive to gardeners who grow tomatoes for sale, as there is the opportunity to get a good price for tomatoes during the off-season.
