It was the very first to bloom and set fruit. As you&#8217;d expect from an indeterminate hybrid, the first truss appeared above the 8th-9th leaf, and the rest followed every 1-2 leaves. Even in the cold summer of 2012, it set fruit from every single blossom. It took 120 days from sprouting to the first ripe tomato.<\/p>\n<p>There are 8-10 tomatoes per truss. They are round, red, weigh 3.5-5.3 oz (100-150 g), and don&#8217;t crack at all. The taste is your average hybrid flavor (though better than grocery store ones). There is one catch, though: probably because several trusses are swelling up at the same time, the ripening process is slow and drawn out.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tomat-pomidor.com\/uploads\/newforum\/attachments\/7842_77de7a6ede6eab36b8e9ec7ac4dfdfd8a461f550.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tomat-pomidor.com\/uploads\/newforum\/attachments\/7842_77de7a6ede6eab36b8e9ec7ac4dfdfd8a461f550.jpg\" alt=\"Intuition F1 tomatoes on vine\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.tomat-pomidor.com\/uploads\/newforum\/attachments\/7844_c7a3640253d659ed3b58a404d66befab03bd4364.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tomat-pomidor.com\/uploads\/newforum\/attachments\/7844_c7a3640253d659ed3b58a404d66befab03bd4364.jpg\" alt=\"Large cluster of red tomatoes\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"forum-post\">\n<div class=\"author-header\">\n<div class=\"forum-avatar\">K<\/div>\n<div class=\"author-meta\">\n<div class=\"author-name\">Knyaginya Olga <span class=\"author-stats\">\u2b50 Pro Grower (775 posts)<\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"author-geo\">\ud83d\udccd Russia<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"post-content\">\n<p>What a beauty!

And the tomatoes didn&#8217;t look overripe or soft from the outside. I wonder if they&#8217;re still safe to eat? I went to make a salad at work out of two Intuitions, and both were full of sprouts.

Lesson learned: you need to cut them for seeds earlier, in September.<\/p>\n<p>Nothing bad happened, I just picked the sprouts out and threw the rest in a salad.
