The name translates to &#8220;Korean Long-Fruited&#8221; (or simply Korean Long).<\/li>\n<li>\ud83c\udf3f <strong>Plant Habit:<\/strong> Indeterminate (tall). The plant features a delicate, wispy &#8220;weeping&#8221; foliage structure common to many elongated\/oxheart types. It easily reaches 5.5 to 6 feet (1.6-1.8 m) in a greenhouse. Requires tying up.<\/li>\n<li>\ud83c\udf45 <strong>Fruit Characteristics:<\/strong> Highly unusual, elongated cylindrical fruits with a gracefully curved &#8220;beak&#8221; on the end. They are a beautiful raspberry-pink color. Average weight is around 7 to 9 oz (200-250 g), though early fruits can push 14 oz (400 g) and look more like hearts. They have dense, meaty flesh with very few seeds.<\/li>\n<li>\ud83d\udc45 <strong>Flavor &amp; Use:<\/strong> Excellent, sweet flavor. Because they are practically all meat and very dense, they cut &#8220;like sausage&#8221; and are fantastic for fresh slicing, freezing, and sauces. <strong>Pro Tip:<\/strong> They hold up incredibly well in storage and can produce late into the fall.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"add-review-cta\" style=\"margin: 20px 0; padding: 15px; background: #f9f9f9; border-left: 4px solid #4CAF50; border-radius: 4px;\"><strong>\ud83c\udf45 Grown this variety?<\/strong> <a href=\"#wpdcom\">Click here to add your own photos and review below!<\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"forum-post\">\n<div class=\"author-header\">\n<div class=\"forum-avatar\">D<\/div>\n<div class=\"author-meta\">\n<div class=\"author-name\">Danko (Elena) <span class=\"author-stats\">\u2b50 Pro Grower (10,117 posts)<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"post-content\">\n<p>KOREAN LONG. A very beautiful variety that forms fruits of a rather unusual shape\u2014elongated-cylindrical with a gracefully curved little beak. The tomatoes are a raspberry-pink color, quite dense, resistant to cracking, and have a superb flavor. The average fruit weight is 7 to 9 oz (200-250 g), though the very first fruits can have more of an elongated-heart shape and weigh up to 14 oz (400 g). The plant height is 5.2 to 6 feet (1.6-1.8 m). Among the variety&#8217;s merits, one can definitely list its high yield and long fruiting period.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tomat-pomidor.com\/uploads\/newforum\/attachments\/53792_c799f4e082afe86772d323934101f9f496092efa.jpg\" alt=\"Koreyskiy Dlinnoplodniy elongated pink tomatoes\" width=\"713\" height=\"800\" \/><br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tomat-pomidor.com\/uploads\/newforum\/attachments\/53794_bcc51c069f1fbe7f50110506702032cb544e38d4.jpg\" alt=\"Large meaty Korean Long tomato\" width=\"675\" height=\"900\" \/><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"forum-post\">\n<div class=\"author-header\">\n<div class=\"forum-avatar\">Y<\/div>\n<div class=\"author-meta\">\n<div class=\"author-name\">Yaroslavna (Natalya) <span class=\"author-stats\">\u2b50 Pro Grower (6,274 posts)<\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"author-geo\">\ud83d\udccd Northern Yaroslavl Region (USDA Zone 4)<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"post-content\">\n<p>An amazingly beautiful, heavy-yielding variety!

Honestly, it was a bit too hot for it in my brand new polycarbonate greenhouse (it gets over 104\u00b0F\/40\u00b0C in the sun in there!) &#8211; it rolled up all its leaves. A skinny little plant, modest, and looked totally sickly in the seedling stage. I thought nothing would come of it. But nope, it survived and produced a very decent crop. I really loved the taste, and it&#8217;s so dense. Barely any seeds, just pure meat.

Because Korean Long produces long, heavy, dense fruits on wispy vines, the fruits are notorious for snapping cleanly off the stem at the joint (the knuckle) if you accidentally bump into them while walking past.Additionally, you&#8217;ll see growers praising this tomato because it &#8220;slices like sausage.&#8221; This is the ultimate compliment for a paste tomato! It means the cell walls are so thick, and the seed cavities so small and dry, that when you cut it horizontally, it holds together perfectly in a solid, meaty slice without collapsing into a puddle of juice and seeds on the cutting board.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\ud83d\udccc Quick Summary: Koreyskiy Dlinnoplodniy (Korean Long) \ud83c\udf0d Origin: An heirloom variety known in Russian collector circles.
