\ud83c\udf45 Quick take:<\/strong> Giganta Zenta Semi (Giant Seedless) is an indeterminate<\/strong>, mid-season Italian heirloom<\/strong> that produces large, heavy red beefsteaks. The name is likely a variation of the Italian Gigante Senza Semi<\/em><\/strong>, which perfectly describes its incredibly meaty, low-seed flesh. Growers here praise its solid yields and well-balanced, old-fashioned tomato flavor completely free of fruity notes. The main drawback they mention is that the tall vines require very sturdy support to hold up the massive trusses. Full summary \u2193<\/a><\/div>\n

Giganta Zenta Semi. Origin: Italy.
\nIndeterminate, large red fruits weighing 10.5-17.5 oz (300-500 g), very tasty and meaty (description from V. Red’ko).<\/p>\n

Grew this in the greenhouse. Well-balanced, real tomato flavor. Yields were better than good. My biggest highlight of 2016.<\/p>\n

Lena! Is the vine massive? Takes up a lot of room? Is it a late producer? Looks gorgeous sliced open \ud83d\udc4d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Pruned it to two leaders. The vine is tall but not too dense, well-proportioned, doesn’t tend to put on too much foliage. I had them spaced 20 inches (50 cm) apart, which was plenty. Mid-season, long harvest window.<\/p>\n

Definitely requires solid support. I struggled to figure out how to tie it up to help it hold all those heavy trusses. The spot at the stem end is shallow and small. Cracking is minor. The flavor is a proper, real tomato taste (no fruity notes).<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Giganta Zenta Semi (seeds from Elena77). Grew this one in 2016.<\/p>\n

“Indeterminate, large red fruits weighing 10.5-17.5 oz (300-500 g), very tasty, meaty, few seeds. Very heavy yielder.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

For me, it turned out kinda late. Don’t really remember the taste. Beautiful fruits though.<\/p>\n
