The Viagra tomato variety stands out from the rest with its non-standard color. This variety causes many disputes among gardeners about the taste characteristics of the fruit. Depending on the region of cultivation, not only the taste, but also the appearance of vegetables will change.

Description of the variety

Viagra is grown in greenhouses and greenhouses. In open areas, the variety can be cultivated only in the southern regions. The type of growth is indeterminate, and the fruits are recommended to be eaten fresh. Tall bushes grow over two meters. Shoots are covered with medium-sized dark green leaves. Most often, 8 brushes are formed on the bush.

The stem is long, but strong. Medium foliage. The root system is well developed and powerful. The inflorescences are simple. Ovaries are formed every two leaves. The first fruit cluster is located above 10 or 11 leaves. Up to 5 tomatoes can grow on one brush at the same time.

The main qualities of the fruit

Unripe fruits are colored green. They have a pronounced dark green spot at the stalk. As they ripen, the fruits turn brown, dark red or brown. There are tomatoes with a dark purple tint or red spots. In weight, tomatoes are gaining up to 108 grams. Their shape is round, slightly flattened, with slight ribbing.

The fruits are covered with a dense skin, under which a hard but juicy pulp is hidden. The surface is glossy. Despite the fact that the fruits are recommended to be eaten fresh, tomatoes are suitable for canning and juicing. The color of the flesh is as unusual and intense as the color of the peel. A large number of seeds are formed inside, which are hidden in 3-4 chambers. The percentage of dry matter content is about 5.

Taste characteristics

The taste of ripe tomatoes is sweet and pleasant, with a light and unobtrusive sourness. The aroma is delicious. Some gardeners point to the wateriness of the fruit, which negatively affects the gastronomic quality of the crop, but in general they respond positively to the taste.

Ripening and fruiting

The Viagra variety is mid-season. The ripening period is 112 days. Harvested at the end of summer, from July to August.

Yield

If you create comfortable growing conditions for a vegetable crop, you can count on high yields. About 10 kilograms of fruit are obtained from a square meter of land.

The timing of planting seedlings and planting in the ground

To obtain seedlings, seeds are sown in late spring. By the time the seedlings are transplanted into the greenhouse or into the open ground, the plants should be 45-50 days old. To the above date, another 5-7 days should be added before the emergence of shoots. They take care of the seedlings in the traditional way. Picking, irrigation and fertilization are carried out. When growing bushes with 2-3 transplants, it is not necessary to fertilize them, but on condition that nutrient soil has been used.

The garden bed is prepared about a week before transplanting. The soil is fed with wood ash or humus. Instead of the second component, nitrogen compounds and loose materials such as dust or old sawdust can be used. The dry soil is watered abundantly, adding "Fitosporin" to the water. It will protect the bushes from diseases.

Growing tomato seedlings is an extremely important process, because it largely depends on whether the gardener will be able to harvest at all. All aspects must be taken into account, from seedbed preparation to planting in the ground.

Landing scheme

Viagra tomatoes are planted adhering to the 40x60 centimeters scheme. Growers strongly recommend single-stemmed planting, although some growers opt for double-stemmed cultivation. When choosing the second option, it is desirable to change the landing pattern: 50x60 or 60x60 centimeters.

Planting a tomato is a very important and painstaking business. In order to get a good harvest of tomatoes, you need to competently approach the issue of planting. When planting a tomato in the ground, it is necessary to take into account many factors - correctly determine the timing, prepare the soil, correctly calculate the distance between plants, take into account the rules of crop rotation.

Growing and care

Caring for a vegetable crop is easy. Agrotechnics necessarily include shaping, garter and pinching. To minimize maintenance, cover the soil around the bushes with a layer of mulch 3-5 centimeters thick. It will not only enrich the land with nutrients, but also protect the topsoil from drying out in the hot season.

A characteristic feature of the variety is a developed root system, which goes to a depth of almost half a meter. The larger and longer the roots, the less the plant depends on the gardener due to the increased feeding area.

The following procedures should also be followed:

  • as soon as the lower leaves begin to fall and lose brightness, you need to moisten the bushes;
  • complex fertilizers are used if plants develop slowly or there are problems with the formation of fruit clusters;
  • during mass flowering, branches are sprayed with Bud or Ovary solutions: these preparations have a positive effect on productivity;
  • the bushes are tied to supports as they grow, but the work is carried out carefully so as not to damage the stem and shoots;
  • appearing stepsons are removed in time.

If there is a lack of sunlight, tomatoes can be harvested and left to ripen at home. To fully appreciate the taste of the fruit, it is worth waiting for their full ripeness.

Watering tomatoes is not difficult. After planting, the plant is watered at such intervals that the soil remains moist. In dry weather, when there is no rain for a long time, watering can be carried out every day, but usually the beds with tomatoes are irrigated 2-3 times a week.
The methods of tying tomato bushes can vary significantly, depending on the availability of available material, the method of fixation, and also the variety. In general, it is recommended to adhere to the following scheme: first, the central stems are grabbed, and then, as the fruits ripen, the lateral branches.
One of the important conditions for tomato agricultural technology is the correct formation of the bush. The formation of tomato bushes means performing the following steps: pinching, pinching, trimming the leaves, normalizing the ovaries.

A plant needs different micronutrients at each stage of growth. All fertilizers can be divided into two groups: mineral and organic. Folk remedies are often used: iodine, yeast, bird droppings, eggshells.

It is important to observe the rate and period of feeding. This also applies to folk remedies and organic fertilizers.

Treatment and prevention of diseases and pests
When growing tomatoes in a greenhouse, diseases often occur due to a violation of the temperature regime and excessive humidity. The most common diseases are fungal (late blight, cladosporium, rot).
The fight against diseases and pests of tomatoes in open areas can be quite difficult. This is because nightshades are exposed to a wide variety of pathogens and insect pests.
