Gardeners' opinion
Good afternoon! I would like to share my experience of growing tomatoes of the Kubyshka variety. One of the most unpretentious and productive species I know. Confidently withstood the cool Moscow summer. No special fertilizers or insecticides had to be used. Watering, four feedings and periodic loosening were enough. The berries grew fleshy and sweet. Well suited for canning. Some of the tomatoes were picked green and ripened perfectly at home. They were stored for a long time, until the beginning of November they made a salad with them. I managed to make some tomato puree for my grandson. The child was pleased. I recommend this variety!

For several years now I have been listening to positive reviews from neighbors about the productivity of the Kubyshka tomato variety. For the first time I decided to plant tomatoes. The Leningrad region is not a place with the most fertile soil and favorable climate. The variety has withstood high humidity and temperature changes. I reaped an excellent harvest, 15 kilograms of tomatoes from the garden. I liked the sweet taste. The variety is suitable for canning and as an ingredient in vegetable salads. Next year I will allocate a larger bed for planting.

The tomato variety Kubyshka impressed me! Preparatory work began in March. The seedlings turned out to be promising. Despite the rainy, cool summer, the tomato bore fruit perfectly. The most difficult thing is to form one stem. The variety is not capricious. I recommend.
