Pink Impression
Tomato Pink Impression F1 (hybrid) was developed in Japan in 2008 by agronomists working at Sakata. The variety was included in the State Register of Russia only in 2017. It is recommended to plant in greenhouses.
Description of the bushes: indeterminate, 1.5 - 2 m in height, so they need to be tied up. There are up to 9 brushes on the bush, with 5-6 tomatoes on each brush. You can remove up to 9 kg of fruit from one bush.
Characteristics of the fruit: bright pink, near the stalk there is a small green spot at the beginning of ripening, which disappears after 5 - 8 days. Round in shape, slightly flattened at the stalk. The pulp is sweet, with some sourness. Vegetable weight - 180 - 240 g. The skin is dense, but not very thick. Tomatoes of this variety are used to make lecho and paste, put them in salads, and preserve them.
Advantages
The tomato variety Pink Impression F1 has the following advantages:
- Super early variety - tomatoes can be harvested 90 - 100 days after sprouts appear.
- Easy to transport.
- The hybrid has high yield.
- Immunity to wilting viruses, spotting, stem cancer and bacteriosis.
Care
Seedlings are fertilized 10 days before transplanting into a greenhouse or greenhouse. For the first time, make a mixture by adding 1 g of urea, 8 g of superphosphate, 3 g of potassium sulfate into 2 liters of clean water. Try to water the seedlings so that the fertilizer does not get on the leaves.
The stems are very elastic, which is why they are tied vertically, and also in the form of a fan. Gardeners advise cutting off the shoots, leaving 2 - 3 stems.
Fertilize every two weeks. Complex fertilizers containing phosphorus and potassium are used. Water the seedlings so that the soil does not dry out and is not overly wet.
Diseases and pests
Since this is a very early ripening variety, pests do not have time to attack. The bush is almost not affected by diseases.
Tomatoes Pink Rose
The Pink Rose tomato (hybrid) was developed quite recently; the bushes are indeterminate and have short internodes.On one brush 4 - 6 tomatoes weighing 250 - 270 g are tied. Seedlings can be planted in a greenhouse or in open ground.

- Tomatoes ripen early.
- They tie perfectly even under stress and heat.
- They can easily tolerate heat and go without watering for several days.
- They are immune to major diseases.
- The tomatoes are smooth, round, slightly flattened at the stalk.
- Excellent presentation.
- The skin is dense, so the tomatoes do not crack, are easily transported, and stored for a long time.
- Great sugary taste.
- A characteristic green spot does not appear near the stalk.
- The first shoots are noticeable already on the 2nd day after sowing the seeds.
Pink Rose F1 tomato is very easy to grow. The seedlings take root well after picking and planting on the site. Some vegetables weigh 600 g. Tomatoes can be picked unripe - the fruits ripen easily. One tomato has 6 seed chambers.
You should plant 3 bushes per square meter. A space of 40 cm is made between the plants, and 1 m between the rows. They like the heat; under stress, the tomatoes become larger and tastier.
