For those who love unusual and tasty tomatoes, the French breeding company Kloz has prepared a new product - the Aidar f1 tomato. This unusually shaped tomato will look great on the table fresh or rolled into jars. We will consider below what its characteristics are and under what conditions the hybrid gives the best results.
What qualities does the Aydar tomato have?
This variety has many qualities that are worth our attention:
- High yield - the weight of one brush is more than a kilogram, and 3 or 4 brushes come out of one bush.
- The bushes are powerful, heavily leafed, so they do not break under the weight of bunches of tomatoes.
- Early ripening when grown in a polycarbonate greenhouse; the bush bears its first fruits in May.
- Description of the tomato - original shape: pepper-shaped, elongated, something you rarely see.
- Excellent taste and aroma - sweet, acid-free tomato taste, pleasant, aromatic smell.
- Resistance to almost all diseases that plague tomato bushes throughout their growth.
- Excellent commercial quality - tomatoes are stored for a long time if the temperature and humidity are maintained.
- Transportable - during long-term transportation they do not lose their appearance and taste, therefore they are grown in factories.
As you can see, the Aidar tomato has solid positive qualities. To grow them on your site, you need to carefully study the characteristics of the bush and growing conditions.
Characteristics of the bush and tomatoes
The bush is tall, indeterminate, with 3–4 ovaries with fruits. They are grown mainly indoors due to the high growth of the plants. The fruits on the bush ripen together, starting from the tops. Therefore, tomatoes do not have a green spot near the stalk. For better ripening, you need to remove the lower leaves, leaving one under the lower bunch. The tomatoes are large - one fruit weighs 140–160 grams, and the bush is simply strewn with pepper-like fruits. It takes 75 days from sowing the seeds to receiving the harvest.
The taste is excellent, fleshy, dense, with a tomato aroma, which is why the variety is popular among large producers of fruits and vegetables. It is used universally - used for canning, preparing sauces, juices, and fresh. They are better preserved with a stalk, so the fruits are collected not one at a time, but in clusters.Wash only before eating, otherwise they may rot.
Feedback about tomato
Those who have already tried to grow this variety on their plots leave positive reviews about the tomato.
Marina from Ukraine, a private gardener, writes: “Last year I planted Aidar tomatoes in the garden, at first I thought that they would not have time to ripen. But then I saw how together, in just a couple of weeks, they all plumped up and turned red. The hybrid did not get sick during the entire growth period, all the fruits, as one, are beautiful. You just need to grow it in a greenhouse and tie it to a crossbar.”
How to grow Aydar?
Growing a tomato involves the following manipulations:
- soil preparation;
- fertilizer;
- growing seedlings;
- plant care;
- harvesting.
Before planting seedlings, prepare the soil for cultivation. Organic fertilizers are added to the soil and cultivated. While the seedlings are growing, the garden is left to rest.
If fertilizers are applied in the fall, then the beds are only cultivated in the spring.
Seedlings begin to be grown in March, by sowing the seeds in fertile soil and covering them with film for germination. The container with the seeds is placed in a warm place for subsequent growth. When the plants hatch, the film is removed and grown until two permanent leaves appear. Two weeks after sowing the seeds, the soil is fertilized.
When forming two sheets, the seedlings are planted with a section of soil in separate containers. So the seedlings wait to be transplanted into a greenhouse or garden bed.
Plants should be planted in a greenhouse at an air temperature of 22 degrees - this happens in early May; they are planted in open beds in late May - early June, when the average daily temperature is also 22 degrees.
Caring for the Aidar f1 tomato is carried out as when growing other tomatoes.
