Vera, 64 years old
“Not a bad tomato. I can’t say that it is very productive, but you can collect 3-4 kilograms from a bush per season. I would like to note that the taste of ripe vegetables is really very good. The fruits are suitable for salads and simply for eating fresh. I would also like to note that I live in the North, and growing tomatoes here can be quite difficult. The Great Warrior is one of those few hybrids that have taken root in such conditions.”
