The first fruits ripened by mid-July. Pruned to 2 stems, each truss had 6-8 fruits. The tomatoes themselves are light yellow, and at full maturity, a pink blush appears on the blossom end. The skin almost looks translucent. They don&#8217;t have a long shelf life. The harvest ripened pretty uniformly all at once. Didn&#8217;t crack. The bush has dense foliage.<\/p>\n<p>Regarding taste: meaty, juicy, great in a salad, but honestly a bit bland for my liking \ud83d\ude33.<\/p>\n<p>Regarding yield: I had to yank the plants in early August (due to late blight), so I can&#8217;t give an objective final yield. By that time, the bush had managed to size up 6 trusses. I&#8217;ll keep it in my collection, I will plant it again, but not in 2014.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tomat-pomidor.com\/uploads\/newforum\/attachments\/58219_80d300dac0c63d00e8bfc1aa969f30dd1b1c3d69.jpg\" alt=\"Light yellow Dynnye tomatoes ripening on plant\" width=\"868\" height=\"1428\" \/><br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tomat-pomidor.com\/uploads\/newforum\/attachments\/58221_933ac2e76111a1e55cc6a50590e229691be8e03e.jpg\" alt=\"Yellow oblate Dynnye tomatoes harvested\" width=\"1500\" height=\"1348\" \/><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"forum-post\">\n<div class=\"author-header\">\n<div class=\"forum-avatar\">T<\/div>\n<div class=\"author-meta\">\n<div class=\"author-name\">Tomatanya (Tatyana) <span class=\"author-stats\">\ud83d\udee1\ufe0f Moderator (10,246 posts)<\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"author-geo\">\ud83d\udccd Leningrad Region, Russia (USDA Zone 4)<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"post-content\">\n<p>Seeds from T.

In all my photos, you are looking at a single plant with multiple side shoots\/leaders.<\/p>\n<p>The bush grew outdoors in the open ground. In October, we threw a perforated plastic sleeve over it. When we finally pulled the plant, it was completely healthy and green. The trusses are simple, up to 6 fruits, rarely forked trusses up to 13 blossoms. Fruit set is excellent. It handled drought perfectly too. The taste is above average, the tomatoes are firm with no empty locules\/voids inside. This variety is definitely NOT Golden Rain (Zol. Dozhd) or Chukhloma. We haven&#8217;t grown Icicle, though. It ripens on the counter perfectly without rotting, but by December the texture turned mealy, so we just threw them in soups. In the photo, the crate next to Dynnye contains the variety Thumbelina (Dyimovochka), taken on 1.11.18. It turned out to be an incredible year for tomatoes.<\/p>\n<p>Seeds were from Tomatinka.
