Previously, I never thought that such things could be grown in our climate. But it turned out that this is not only possible, but there are a lot of such varieties. I don’t regret choosing “Bull’s Eye,” because I’ve wanted to grow just such a tomato for a long time. (Rosa, Naberezhnye Chelny)
- I liked this variety for its productivity, disease resistance and external beauty. Several Bull's Eye bushes made my greenhouse bright and elegant to the envy of all the neighbors. The only disadvantage of tomatoes is their very short shelf life. But it’s still worth planting it, because there are many more advantages. (Galina Pavlovna, Zlatoust)
- My description of this tomato consists mainly of positive traits. It is easy to care for, unpretentious, ideal for salads and pickling. It is better to preserve it with whole fruits, because... they are very small. I can name only one drawback - the impossibility of transportation over long distances.
