The Asvon tomato is a productive, low-growing hybrid created by Russian scientific breeders for the middle and southern regions. It is possible to cultivate Asvon F1 tomatoes in open ground and under film covers.
Description: Hybrid "Asvon F1" has an early ripening period of 95-105 days from germination to harvest. A tomato bush of this variety grows up to 60 cm in height and does not require staking or removal of shoots. The leaves of these tomatoes are dark green and rich in color. The ovary is formed under the 5th leaf. In total, the plant has 5-6 raceme inflorescences. Each cluster of these tomatoes contains 5-6 fruits of the same size and shape.
The variety shows rapid formation and ripening of fruits at high temperatures. Resistant to temperature fluctuations. During the fruitful period of plant development, the bushes of this hybrid are hung with fruits and look very beautiful. The compact size of the Asvon F1 tomato bushes allows you to grow them even at home on a windowsill, as well as on a balcony. For these purposes, you need a spacious container with a volume of 10-12 liters per bush.
Fruit characteristics

They are used for whole-fruit canning, both in industrial and at home conditions. Excellent for use in any culinary dishes, as they have excellent taste, color, and consistency.
Main characteristics of the Asvon F1 hybrid:
- Early ripening;
- All fruits are of the same shape and weight;
- Sugary (6%);
- Productivity up to 100 pieces per bush;
- High disease resistance;
- Not subject to cracking on the bush and during conservation;
- Seeds are not collected from Asvon tomatoes, since the hybrid loses its varietal advantages in the second generation.
Cultivation scheme
Tomatoes "Asvon F1" are planted according to the pattern 40 x 40 cm, 4-5 bushes per 1 sq.m. The yield of Asvon F1 tomatoes reaches 9 kg per 1 sq. m.

Since the harvest of this tomato variety occurs almost simultaneously, it is very important that the seedlings are planted in prepared soil. The soil environment should be slightly acidic.To achieve the required acidity in the fall, mullein is added there and dug up.
To get a good tomato harvest, you need to carefully monitor watering and fertilizing the bushes. Watering should be done as the soil dries (usually once every 10-14 days). If watering is by drip, then you can do it once a week. During the growing season, 5-10 liters of water, and during fruiting and ripening, 10-20 liters for each plant root.
After each watering, loosen the soil under the plants. This gives the bush better aeration and the fruits ripen faster. It is imperative to fertilize Asvon tomatoes, since if there is a lack of necessary substances, the hybrid reduces its yield, and cultivation turns out to be ineffective and unprofitable.
Disease and pest control
"Asvon" are tomatoes resistant to almost all diseases. They are usually not infected with late blight. However, during a late blight epidemic, it is recommended to treat plants with Bordeaux mixture for timely prevention. Treatment of bushes with Fitosporin M helps against gray rot. Tomato tops attract flying insects, as well as other pests. They are destroyed using various specific insecticides, the treatment is repeated 2-3 times with an interval of 7-10 days.
It is important to remember the secrets of productivity:
- Selection of high-quality seed material.
- Maintain crop rotation on the site; tomatoes should not be planted in areas after potatoes, eggplants, melons and cucumbers.
- Treatment of the area before sowing with a solution of copper sulfate 1 tbsp. l. for 10 liters of boiling water.
- Disinfection. Before planting a tomato, 1 day before, you can burn a sulfur smoke bomb, thus destroying fungal spores.
- Compliance with the regime and volume of watering.
- Compliance with the regime of feeding tomatoes at the roots and tops. These events alternate every 10 days.
