Reviews from gardeners
My description of this variety is the most positive. The variety is very good; with proper agricultural technology, you can achieve a high yield. And correct agricultural technology consists of regular watering, loosening the soil, removing weeds, and using high-quality mineral fertilizers. If you follow these simple rules, you can achieve great results. (Alina, Kazan)
I read the description of the “Vova Putin” tomato on the Internet. I decided to plant it because of the interesting name, so that I could tell my neighbors that “Putin” was growing on my plot. As it turns out, tomatoes are not only interesting in their name, but also in their taste and appearance. They taste very juicy, meaty, melting in your mouth. In appearance – smooth and shiny – pleasing to the eye. I think that such tomatoes can compete with any of the long-known varieties. (Alexandra Ivanovna, Novorossiysk)
Every year I plant some new variety in my garden. I'm experimenting, so to speak. I chose “Vova Putin” after reading good reviews from gardeners. I liked that these tomatoes did not require complex care and were not afraid of sudden changes in weather.As for the taste, I can say that it is quite good, but it has been better. Although maybe I'm being picky. (Sergey Semenovich, Volgograd)
My whole family really liked “Vova Putin”! Tomatoes simply have an incomparable taste, both fresh and canned. I made lecho and tomato sauce. It turned out very tasty and unusual. We will now plant this tomato every year. (Alevtina Vasilievna, Mozhga)
A neighbor gave me the seeds of these tomatoes and said that the variety was very rare and little known. As an inquisitive person and open to everything new, I immediately became interested and sat down. Caring for tomatoes is very simple, an excellent option for beginners in gardening. The tomatoes are tasty and sweet, the flesh is tender and meaty. The number of seeds inside is small. I advise everyone who loves something new to plant “Vova Putin” in their summer cottage.
An undoubted advantage of these tomatoes is their resistance to frost. And in general, they are unpretentious to weather conditions and grow well here in the Urals. The “Vova Putin” variety is so robust, I think it will withstand even the harsh climate of Siberia. (Fedor Pavlovich, Yekaterinburg)
