Gardeners' opinion
Good day! Last summer I discovered the Vasilina tomato. The variety is unpretentious and does not require particularly close attention. Even a novice gardener can cope with cultivation. The fruits have a good taste, are not sour, and are suitable for processing. I make excellent paste with tomato pastes obtained from berries. I recommend!

Good afternoon! I recommend the Vasilina tomato variety to everyone. The variety is very productive and not capricious. It responds well to feeding and does not like excessive moisture. The disadvantage of the fruit is its tendency to crack.
