Fruits are pink, oblate (flat-round), ribbed at the base. Sweet taste, very tender flesh. Even with our cold, rainy summer, the yield was really good.<\/p>\n<p><em>Edited March 15, 2019 by Pomidoroved<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"forum-post\">\n<div class=\"author-header\">\n<div class=\"forum-avatar\">G<\/div>\n<div class=\"author-meta\">\n<div class=\"author-name\">Galina P. <span class=\"author-stats\">\u2b50 Pro Grower (37,710 posts)<\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"author-geo\">\ud83d\udccd Moscow Region, Russia (USDA Zone 4)<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"post-content\">\n<p>Beautiful mater!!! \ud83d\ude4c And what&#8217;s the weight of a single fruit?<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"forum-post\">\n<div class=\"author-header\">\n<div class=\"forum-avatar\">V<\/div>\n<div class=\"author-meta\">\n<div class=\"author-name\">Verunya (Vera) <span class=\"author-stats\">\u2b50 Pro Grower (16,332 posts)<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"post-content\">\n<p>Meri, is it mostly a slicer&#8230; not really for whole canning?<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"forum-post\">\n<div class=\"author-header\">\n<div class=\"forum-avatar\">M<\/div>\n<div class=\"author-meta\">\n<div class=\"author-name\">Meri <span class=\"author-stats\">\u2b50 Pro Grower (3,474 posts)<\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"author-geo\">\ud83d\udccd Western Siberia, Russia (USDA Zone 3)<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"post-content\">\n<blockquote><p><strong>Galina P. wrote:<\/strong><br \/>\nBeautiful mater!!! \ud83d\ude4c And what&#8217;s the weight of a single fruit?<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>I don&#8217;t have a scale so I didn&#8217;t weigh them, but roughly between 7 and 14 oz (200-400 g).<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"forum-post\">\n<div class=\"author-header\">\n<div class=\"forum-avatar\">M<\/div>\n<div class=\"author-meta\">\n<div class=\"author-name\">Meri <span class=\"author-stats\">\u2b50 Pro Grower (3,474 posts)<\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"author-geo\">\ud83d\udccd Western Siberia, Russia (USDA Zone 3)<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"post-content\">\n<blockquote><p><strong>Verunya wrote:<\/strong><br \/>\nMeri, is it mostly a slicer&#8230; not really for whole canning?<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Definitely a fresh slicer.

What I remember really loving about it: behaves fantastic as seedlings. Sturdy, stocky, and healthy! It&#8217;s a tree-type (rugose dwarf). Out in the dirt they didn&#8217;t get taller than 2.3 ft (0.7 m) with a ridiculously strong main stem, didn&#8217;t even require staking despite a pretty impressive harvest. But the taste seemed a bit tart to me, though maybe the summer just lacked sunshine (can&#8217;t remember exactly).<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"forum-post\">\n<div class=\"author-header\">\n<div class=\"forum-avatar\">G<\/div>\n<div class=\"author-meta\">\n<div class=\"author-name\">Galya-64 (Galina) <span class=\"author-stats\">\u2b50 Pro Grower (4,414 posts)<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"post-content\">\n<p>My tomato of this variety is from Terentiev. Here is his description: &#8220;A new variety with very large fruits, plant height 4-4.5 ft (1.2-1.4 m). The first fruits can reach up to 2.2 lbs (1 kg). They are pink, firm, but the flesh is tender and sugary on the break. Crack resistant, long fruiting window. Yield is around 13 lbs (6 kg) per bush.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Now, my first truss obviously didn&#8217;t produce any 2.2 lb (1 kg) monsters, but in every other regard (taste, yield, and looks), this tomato completely satisfied me. Will definitely plant it again!<\/p>\n<p>Grew it out in the open dirt, height was about 5 feet (1.5 m).
