Quick Summary of Sem Gnomov (Seven Dwarfs)
- 🌍 Origin: A Russian commercial/amateur variety. The name translates to “Seven Dwarfs”.
- 🌿 Plant Habit: Determinate (bush). It is very short and compact, growing only up to 50 cm (20 inches) tall. Growers note that it does not require any pruning or suckering.
- 🍅 Fruit Characteristics: Perfectly round, dense red spheres weighing up to 100g (3.5 oz). They grow in beautiful, loaded clusters. The texture is firm and juicy, but not tough or “woody”.
- 👅 Flavor: A very good, sweet-dominant tomato flavor. It has a mild, soft acidity that perfectly balances the sweetness without overpowering it.
- 📈 Yield & Harvest: An early-season variety with an extended fruiting period. It yields heavily and the picked fruits store quite well off the vine.
An early, productive, short-growing variety, I liked it very much! It grew in the greenhouse, I didn’t prune (sucker) it, grew up to 50cm (20 inches). It was covered with uniform, dense red little balls up to 100g (3.5 oz) in beautiful trusses, with a good taste.

Well, there you go… I wanted to write about it, that the variety turned out productive for me… No, I mean yes, it is productive, tasty, the tomatoes are dense but not woody, juicy, with a good tomato flavor dominated by sweetness. The acidity is very soft, not sharp, just enough so the tomato isn’t bland and, on the other hand, doesn’t overpower the sweet note. They store quite well, fairly early, and the fruiting period is extended; I picked the first tomatoes at the end of June and the remnants are still hanging there, finishing ripening. But I don’t have such results as Svetik does, how does she do it?!

Did you grow it in open ground? It’s still better in a greenhouse.
