The fruits are large, gorgeous red beefsteaks, and the red skin looks almost like it has a fine matte dusting or sheen to it. The fruit are top-notch quality and didn&#8217;t crack at all.<\/p>\n<p>In my growing conditions, the flavor turned out nicely balanced, and the fruit were firm and meaty. This variety ran pretty late for me because I ended up having to top and re-root the seedling in April, which obviously set back fruit production. Definitely gonna grow it again.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tomat-pomidor.com\/uploads\/newforum\/galleries\/157\/111-221216105240.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tomat-pomidor.com\/uploads\/newforum\/galleries\/157\/111-221216105240.jpeg\" alt=\"Mendigorria tomato, photo posted by ElenaN (1)\" width=\"498\" height=\"421\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.tomat-pomidor.com\/uploads\/newforum\/galleries\/157\/111-221216105144.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tomat-pomidor.com\/uploads\/newforum\/galleries\/157\/thumb_111-221216105144.jpeg\" alt=\"Mendigorria tomato, photo posted by ElenaN (2)\" width=\"160\" height=\"126\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.tomat-pomidor.com\/uploads\/newforum\/galleries\/157\/111-221216105118.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tomat-pomidor.com\/uploads\/newforum\/galleries\/157\/thumb_111-221216105118.jpeg\" alt=\"Mendigorria tomato, photo posted by ElenaN (3)\" width=\"160\" height=\"120\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.tomat-pomidor.com\/uploads\/newforum\/galleries\/157\/111-221216105221.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tomat-pomidor.com\/uploads\/newforum\/galleries\/157\/thumb_111-221216105221.jpeg\" alt=\"Mendigorria tomato, photo posted by ElenaN (4)\" width=\"160\" height=\"119\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.tomat-pomidor.com\/uploads\/newforum\/galleries\/157\/111-221216105303.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tomat-pomidor.com\/uploads\/newforum\/galleries\/157\/thumb_111-221216105303.jpeg\" alt=\"Mendigorria tomato, photo posted by ElenaN (5)\" width=\"131\" height=\"160\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><!-- ===== 4.
