Not all gardeners have greenhouses on their property. The Adeline tomato is ideal for growing delicate produce in open ground. This unpretentious plant will delight its owners with delicious, versatile tomatoes.

The Adelina variety is included in the State Register of the Russian Federation for the North Caucasus Federal District. The creators recommend planting it on personal plots and private plots.
Some gardeners grow tomatoes in plastic greenhouses. The plant actively bears fruit, but stretches out. It is necessary to monitor soil moisture: Adeline does not tolerate overwatering.
What makes berries happy?
Summer residents fell in love with the delicious fruits. They are ready to wait a little: at the end of July, the variety will give baskets of fragrant berries. Characteristics of tomatoes:

Those who planted the variety know: Adeline pleases with the universal purpose of the fruits. They are delicious fresh and do not crack during heat treatment. The peel does not spoil the juice or paste. The pulp does not spread in vegetable slices.
Rules for obtaining a high yield
Healthy bushes give a decent harvest. They are easy to grow. It is required to follow the recommendations of the developers:
- you should start working with seedlings in the first ten days of March;
- after pecking, take the tray to a cool windowsill;
- Be sure to highlight, ventilate, and harden the plants;
- dive after the second leaf grows;
- plant on permanent beds after spring frosts;
- add double superphosphate when planting;
- cover the soil with straw, rotted organic matter, and non-woven material;
- water moderately: after complete drying;
- regularly apply complex fertilizers.
Those who grew tomatoes were convinced of its demands on the structure and fertility of the soil. Soft soil conducts air to the roots, retains moisture, and prevents souring. Loosening - “dry” watering.
Adeline cannot tolerate an excess of nitrogen: she stops setting fruit. You should stop feeding the bushes 14 days before harvesting the first fruits.
Independent assessment
Gardeners leave friendly reviews about the Adeline tomato. They are attracted by: the unusual shape, yield, taste, and universal purpose of the fruit. The unpretentiousness of the plant pleases people who come to their dacha once a week. The thick skin allows the collected tomatoes to be transported to the storage location.
Adeline's sensitivity to soil and air humidity is distressing. This makes it difficult to cultivate the variety in cool, rainy summers.
