\ud83c\udf45 Quick take:<\/strong> Nizhegorodskiy Kudyablik<\/strong> is a very early, determinate multiflora<\/strong> tree-type tomato bred by Siberian Garden. It produces sturdy, compact bushes up to 24 inches (60 cm) tall and requires zero pruning. It yields abundant 1.8-2 oz (50-60 g) bright yellow-orange globes. Growers appreciate its early ripening, good tang-to-sweetness balance, and resilience in short-season climates. Full summary \u2193<\/a><\/div>\n

Seeds are from the Siberian Garden (SibSad) company. The breeder’s description: Super early Siberian variety for open ground. Perfect for beginners and “lazy” gardeners. Low maintenance, needs no staking or suckering. Compact tree-type bush, about 16 inches (40 cm) tall, loaded with beautiful, appetizing round fruits averaging 1.8 oz (50 g). The fruits are round, smooth, firm, deep orange, and ripen perfectly right out in the dirt.<\/p>\n

Grew mine outdoors, plant got to about 20 inches (50 cm). Didn’t prune it at all. Fruits weighed 1.8-2 oz (50-60 g), great for sun-drying or just tossing in a salad. Started my seeds on April 10.<\/p>\n

After reading Galina’s review, I decided to grow these SibSad seeds too. Honestly, I just loved the funny name \ud83d\ude02<\/p>\n

Grew this bush at the end of the middle bed in my greenhouse. Pretty robust and stocky for a det, with huge leaves. Reached about 24 inches (60 cm) tall, no suckering done. You definitely need to tie it up well, ’cause the yield was incredible for a determinate! \ud83d\udc4b Fruits are sunny bright yellow globes up to 2 oz (60 g), some with a little pink blush, and taste great. They look a bit like Iyunskiy (June) Yellow, but totally different plant habit.<\/p>\n

Kudyablik was the second one to ripen for me, right after Mongol Dwarf. Surprisingly tasty, sweet but with a nice little tang. Super productive, and the plant itself looks a lot like the Dwarf Tomato Project varieties. Really liking this one.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Yeah, Kudyablik just didn’t work out for me. Barely got anything off the plant. Could’ve been the weather, sure, but Iyunskiy and Rannyaya Ptashka (Early Bird) planted right next to it actually put out a decent crop.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

This year all my early dets totally bombed in terms of overall yield, but man, they started putting out fruit ridiculously early.<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s what I started for my early crop on March 1 (except Peterhof, which I had to re-sow March 6):<\/p>\n

Pigmey – starting June 9, yield ~3.7 lbs (1.7 kg)
\nTurbojet (Turboreaktivnyi<\/a>) – starting June 9, yield ~5.3 lbs (2.4 kg)
\nPeterhof<\/a> – starting June 20, yield ~5.3 lbs (2.4 kg)
\nRed Dwarf (Krasnyi Karlik<\/a>) – starting June 21, yield ~2.2 lbs (1.0 kg)
\nJune (Iyunskiy<\/a>) – starting June 18, yield ~2.8 lbs (1.3 kg)
\nNizhegorodskiy Kudyablik<\/strong> – starting June 27, yield ~4 lbs (1.8 kg)<\/p>\n

So Kudyablik pretty much made the early squad, even if it barely squeaked by. First time’s always a crapshoot anyway, so I’ll definitely give it another run before writing it off.<\/p>\n

Funny thing is, Kudyablik changed color depending on the weather. First fruits that ripened in the hot June sun.<\/p>\n

But a month later, once the sun was gone, they turned almost pure yellow.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Nah, nothing was really early for me. We only had a few hot days in June, mixed in with some late frosts. Three tomatoes on the Kudyablik plant can hardly be called a harvest.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

My Kudyablik was highly productive.<\/p>\n

You folks probably just had much better weather. Thinking about giving it another shot, fingers crossed next summer won’t be quite as freezing.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
