Opinion of experienced gardeners
I first tried to grow the Fifty variety three years ago. The tomato has become a regular visitor to garden beds due to its good yield, unpretentiousness and sweet taste. Due to the small height of the bush there is no need to tie it up. Fruits well in a small greenhouse. In hot summers, the fruits ripen within three months. It is convenient to can tomatoes and chop them into salad. Excellent for cool regions. I recommend it to all gardeners!

Last summer I harvested a magnificent harvest of Fifty tomatoes, 4 kilograms per bush. The result impressed not only me, but also my neighbors. Now the whole village is planting. The variety is excellent for twisting. With proper care, the harvest lasts throughout the winter. The taste of ripe berries is sweet and sour. Tomatoes are stored for a long time and are easily transported. We eat fresh until mid-November. The family is happy! I plan to increase the plantation; if the summer is hot, I will plant tomatoes in open ground. I will definitely share the result.

Advice for all tomato lovers. Feel free to plant the Fifty variety in places with hot summers. Very persistent, high temperature is not an obstacle to a good harvest. After harvesting, I stocked up on tomatoes for the whole winter, and there was also enough for salads. A very stress-resistant variety. It tolerates not only heat, but also fungal diseases. I am not fussy about watering, I watered it twice a week. Important care points include loosening and fertilizing. I fed it four times with complex fertilizer. The taste is excellent, sweet and juicy. Plant the Fifty variety, you definitely won’t regret it.
