Description of Tyler tomato
In the modern world, there is a lot of information that hybrids have low yields and do not have a rich taste. That is why many gardeners try to pay as little attention as possible to f1 hybrids. But, tomato Tyler was able to completely refute this information. Those who planted it on their plots are completely satisfied with its characteristics.
Variety characteristics
Literally 10 years ago, a Chinese company decided to develop hybrid tomato varieties. The Chinese opened a branch of their company in the Russian Federation and Russian breeders immediately began developing the Tyler F1 tomato. To date, there is no information that the f1 category Tyler tomato was entered in the State Register. But, this does not prevent him from being popular among the public.
This type of hybrid is ideal for growing in all climatic conditions of the country, but only with proper care. In warm climates, cultivation is carried out in open ground, and in cold climates, in greenhouses.
Description of the bush
Tomato Tyler f1 is characterized by the determinant type of development. That is, its height and width are unlimited. The bush of this species has a well-developed structure itself, and the root system develops regardless of soil nutrition. Dark green leaves completely cover the entire stem of the bush.
The space between the nodes is small, which allows the fruit to form in clusters. Moreover, the height of the greenhouse can be very small. About 10 fruits can ripen on 1 brush. If the care is carried out according to all the requirements, then the number of fruits in 1 bunch can reach 15 pcs. This hybrid matures in an average amount of time. It is believed that the growing season is only 100 days.
Description of the fetus
The fruits ripen in large quantities. It is possible to collect about 15 kg of selected tomato vegetables from 1 m2. Tomatoes are round in shape, with a small flattened area at the tip. Tomatoes have a rich red hue, without blemishes in the form of spots. The surface of the peel is firm and has a glossy finish. The weight of a tomato is average and is about 200 g.
The taste is full-bodied, with notes of sweetness. When the fruit is cut, the characteristics of sugar content are observed. A distinctive feature of a tomato is that sugar and acid are balanced with each other. It is a versatile variety that can be used for making fresh salads, canning or tomato paste. When salted or preserved, all tomatoes retain their original appearance.
Benefits
It is important to note a number of positive features of this variety:
- the possibility of long-term storage;
- good yield indicators;
- possibility of transportation;
- resistance to common diseases.
disadvantages
The problem lies in the possible exposure to parasites. The disadvantage is the fact that the seed is degenerating.Therefore, gardeners have to buy new seeds every year.
Growing rules
It is important to note that the seeds of this variety should not be immediately planted outdoors. The negative impact of the environment, in the form of a cold snap, can cause the destruction of the root system, therefore, the seeds must be planted to obtain seedlings. This is done 50 days before the open ground transplant is scheduled.
Before planting, in the fall, organic fertilizers must be applied to the soil. For this, it is recommended to use bird droppings, humus or peat. This will allow the soil to absorb a large number of useful components and better affect the planted plants. As soon as the first leaves began to form on the seedlings, it must be transplanted into open soil. But, it must be hardened in advance by changing the temperature regime in the greenhouse. Plants need to be planted at a distance of 50 cm from each other, but between the rows the distance should be about 60 cm.
Care
Tyler tomato is easy to care for. It requires standard care, which consists of watering, feeding and loosening the soil. At some points in time, if necessary, you can carry out the formation of a bush in 1 stem and hilling the root system. Watering is carried out with water at room temperature and only in the evening. This condition provides more moisture to the root system. Loosening of the soil and removal of weeds should be carried out due to the fact that the root system in this way will receive much more air and nutrients.
If the soil begins to settle during watering, hilling should be carried out. If this condition is ignored, the roots can dry out and the yield will drop to zero. The description of the variety indicates that it is not necessary to form a bush into 1 stem. But, in order to achieve the best yield indicators, it is better to carry out this procedure. To do this, all lateral shoots break off, and the main stem remains in place. Top dressing includes only minerals, so it is important to pay attention to phosphorus and nitrogen components. They allow the stem to develop better and reveal the flavor of the tomato.
Parasites and diseases
Tyler f1 is resistant to diseases such as late blight, powdery mildew or spotting, so you don't have to worry about taking preventive measures. The only problem with this species is insect exposure. The whole point is that each region has its own parasites and breeders have not been able to create a universal variety that would have equal immunity rates in all regions of the country.
In the fight against the Colorado potato beetle, it is advisable to use a drug called Regent. If the war is waged with a greenhouse whitefly, then you should pay attention to folk methods of struggle. Spray with soapy water. From slugs, wood ash will come to the rescue, mixed in equal quantities with red hot pepper. The use of medicinal preparations will help from aphids: Tabbu or Araks.
Conclusion
Despite the hybrid component, with the Tyler tomato, you can not worry about the low yield or unpleasant taste, because this particular species contains all the advantages of tomatoes that every gardener needs so much. If you follow all the planting and care instructions, then you can get an early harvest with excellent taste. Even a beginner in agriculture can handle this variety.
