Most summer residents prefer undersized tomatoes, as they are distinguished by powerful and sprawling bushes, a large yield, and there is no need to tie them to supports. In this article I will tell you which varieties of undersized tomatoes are the most productive, how to properly plant them and care for the crop.
The best undersized varieties of tomatoes
I have tried many different low-growing tomatoes in cultivation and therefore I recommend that all gardeners pay attention to the following varieties.
Watercolor
It is characterized by tasty elongated fruits. Bushes reach a height of 50 cm. They are resistant to diseases and pests and are completely unpretentious in care. Suitable for both fresh consumption and for preparing winter preparations. This variety, despite its small size, is quite high-yielding. It grows well in the shade.
Alaska
An early ripe variety, differing in height a little more than half a meter. Used to make summer salads. But for canning it is unsuitable. The fruits are quite tasty, sweet, with a thin skin. This variety is not afraid of diseases and pests and is suitable for outdoor cultivation.
Firewood
Tomatoes that grow well in the harsh northern climate. Characterized by an unusual elongated shape. They have quite thick skins. Therefore, they can be used for preparing winter blanks.
Mongolian dwarf
The height of the tomatoes reaches 30 cm. I do not recommend pinching them, as this will reduce the number of fruits. Despite its small size, the variety is quite high-yielding. I use the fruits both fresh and in the preparation of winter preparations.
Aztec
I use this variety when growing in a greenhouse, on a balcony and in the open field. Tomatoes are early ripening and bear fruit until the first frost. Outwardly, the fruits are small, but very sweet.
Fighter
It got its name for its unpretentiousness in cultivation and care. That is, these tomatoes will withstand everything: sudden changes in temperature, lack of the required amount of light, drought. They are also resistant to various diseases.
lazybones
The fruits of this variety reach a weight of 300 g. They have an original shape in the shape of a heart. I grow these tomatoes in a greenhouse and outdoors.
Grouse
The most unusual variety due to its unique coloring. On red fruits there are randomly scattered yellow stripes. The height of the bushes varies from 50 cm to 1 m.
