Just like all the others in this line, it blows you away with its flavor. The plant reached about 4 feet (120 cm) tall outdoors out in the dirt. Mid-early season. Very beautiful fruits weighing 7-9 oz (200-250 g), a gorgeous crimson-pink color with a scattered pearlescent shimmer right under the skin. The flesh is juicy, meaty, with a superb sweet taste. An aromatic, heavy-yielding stunner.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tomat-pomidor.com\/uploads\/monthly_2020_09\/large.474080643_612.09_.jpg.14b001985b832b802767333152b3739f.jpg\" alt=\"Cantati 6 pink tomato on a scale\" \/><br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tomat-pomidor.com\/uploads\/monthly_2020_09\/large.1652638384_612.09_.jpg.f0e42ed31821ab666ed2d7f6f9b4265c.jpg\" alt=\"Cross section of meaty Cantati 6 tomato\" \/><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"editor-note\" style=\"background: #eef7ff; padding: 15px; border-left: 4px solid #2196F3; margin-top: 15px; font-size: 1.2em;\"><strong>\ud83d\udc68\u200d\ud83c\udf3e Editor&#8217;s Note: The Cantati Project<\/strong><br \/>\nIf you see a tomato variety with the name &#8220;Cantati&#8221; followed by a number or a cross formula (e.g., Cantati 6, Cantati 14), it comes from a dedicated Polish tomato breeder who goes by the forum handle <em>Cantati<\/em>.
