The Izobilny tomato pleases gardeners with an early harvest. Already in July, the table will be decorated with juicy pink fruits. Their quantity will be sufficient for salads, slicing and canning.
Why Abundant?
Gardeners trust the products of the Gavrish company. Izobilny presents a series of tomatoes for open ground. Breeders have created a fast-ripening tomato.
Hybrid characteristics:
- bears fruit in open ground and under film covers;
- early ripening period (the first tomatoes ripen after 90 days from the loops);
- determinate plant (bush size 0.5–0.8 m);
- leaves are small, dark green;
- competent agricultural technology will ensure a yield of 12 kg/m².
The abundant one overloads the bushes with fruits. The plant needs staking. When nitrogen is applied in the spring, foliage becomes overgrown. It is recommended to break out the stepsons: this measure will force the hybrid to redirect its forces to the formation of ovaries.
Abundant is not affected by fusarium and TMV. Due to early ripening, it “escapes” late blight. The hybrid is registered in the State Register of Vegetable Crops of the Russian Federation. Gardeners successfully grow it in open beds in private plots and small garden plots.
What do you like about tomatoes?
Varieties of early tomatoes often do not please with taste. They are dry and harsh. Abundant attracts gardeners with the aroma and sweetness of the fruit. Description of tomatoes:
- fruit weight 80 g;
- smooth, matte to the touch;
- spherical, flattened on top;
- tightly attached to the stalk;
- juicy pulp;
- sweet and sour taste;
- ripe pink tomatoes;
- moderately thick skin;
- bright, “tomato” aroma;
- 4–5 seed chambers.
The value of the hybrid: rapid ripening, unpretentiousness to climatic conditions. Gardeners are pleased with the friendly yield of fruits. At the end of July the ridges are cleared. There is time to prepare the land for the new season or grow other crops (lettuce, arugula).
Gardeners are satisfied with the purpose of the fruits. First, tomatoes are eaten fresh and salads are prepared. Non-standard fruits are allowed for processing. Small ones are canned whole.
How to grow Abundant?
Every summer resident wants to eat a delicious tomato from his own garden. The instructions on the seed packet promise an abundance of tomatoes if you follow the growing rules. Feature of the hybrid: rapid ripening. When leaving, you need to take this fact into account.
Agronomists advise:
- drive out seedlings 35 days before the intended planting;
- containers should be disinfected (rinse with alcohol, pink solution of potassium permanganate);
- prepare light fertile soil (make it yourself or buy it);
- plant seeds to a depth of 1.5 cm;
- Maintain a temperature of 23–25 degrees Celsius until germination;
- reduce the temperature after pipping to 18 degrees Celsius;
- hardening, ventilation, and lighting are required;
- dive deep with two true leaves;
- to strengthen the bush when planting, use calcium nitrate (a tablespoon for each plant);
- The planting site must be prepared in advance (loosen, add the mineral complex nitrogen-potassium-phosphorus);
- plant in a permanent place after returning cold weather;
- choose a sunny place;
- for the first 2 days, shade the plantings from the sun with white non-woven material;
- It is recommended to tie up plants;
- stepsoning required;
- plant 5–7 plants/m² of area;
- layout: 40 cm X 50 cm;
- Do not over-moisten the soil under the bushes.
You should remember about “dry watering” - loosening: the crust is destroyed, gas exchange improves.
Assessment of summer residents
Gardeners post reviews about the Izobilny F1 tomato on forums. Everyone likes the early ripening of the hybrid. They are satisfied with the taste and purpose of the fruit, simultaneous ripening, and a single application of mineral fertilizers.
The need to form bushes and garters is not suitable. Summer residents are accustomed to the independent growth of determinate plants.
