Tomato Etude

The "artistic" name for this variety is promising. However, it is all the more important to think over and work out everything correctly. Therefore, the most recent and accurate information is relevant.

The plant was created in the scientific and production corporation "NK LTD". The official registration of Etude is completed in 2021. It is a hybrid, but the ancestral forms are not listed in the official description.

The study demonstrates the classic indeterminate type of development. It is mainly grown indoors. His bushes are tall. The average level of foliage is characteristic. The leaves are moderately large and have a simple green color.

When Etude only yields a harvest from the ovaries, these berries are light green in color. As they develop further, they will blush. Other characteristics:

• usual weight 77-90 g;

• the largest tomatoes weigh 180-200 g;

• round shape is typical;

• berries develop from simple inflorescences;

• the harvest is characterized by a decent keeping quality;

• the first inflorescence will be laid over 9 or 10 leaves;

• subsequent leaves will be laid every 3 leaves.

Etude is characterized by dense pulp. The smooth rind does not have any significant effect on the taste. The share of marketable fruits ranges from 94 to 99%.

This variety is one of the mid-ripening tomatoes. Under normal conditions, the plants will yield 110-117 days after the formation of green shoots.

Productivity is declared at the level of at least 30.2 kg per 1 sq. m. Its highest level reaches 33 kg. The influence of the weather must be taken into account. And also you need to diligently take care of the plants.

You can plant seeds in containers in mid-March. Before this, you should prepare the land and planting material. Normally, the seedlings are ready for transplanting in May or June. The specific period is determined by the development of plants. And you should also take into account the degree of heating of the earth and the danger of frost return.

For 1 sq. m it is necessary to plant no more than 3 bushes. Excessive thickening is very harmful and stupid. Otherwise, there are no requirements for the seating scheme.

Seedlings must be started. Lighting should be brought up to 14-16 hours. Sometimes this is possible only with the help of phytolamps. In the first 5 days, the seedlings are kept at a temperature of 15-17 degrees. Then it is raised to 22 degrees.

Irrigation should be regular, but too much moisture is contraindicated. The introduction of growth activators is recommended. Complex formulations can be used instead.The pick is made at the stage of 2 true leaves. For this, separate containers are used.

Tomatoes Etude should be hardened before being transferred to the final place. This is done by briefly moving outside. For 10 days, the duration of quenching is adjusted from 15 minutes to 8 hours. The bushes should be tied up and no more than 2-3 stems should be left, removing other stepchildren.

Removing weeds is indispensable. It is especially relevant at an early stage of development. It is necessary to loosen tomato beds in any case. Mineral and organic fertilizing should be applied alternately. The most relevant replenishment:

• when flowering;

• when the berries are formed;

• when active fruiting occurs.

Protection against harmful insects is standard. The official description emphasizes decent resistance to:

• cladosporium disease;

• verticillosis;

• fusarium wilting;

• tobacco mosaic.

Even skeptical gardeners are pleasantly surprised by the result. The yield and taste meet the best expectations. The collected fruits can be preserved. You will have to work very diligently. Much depends on your own diligence and experience.
