Agrotechnics
Sowing seeds should be done in April, preferably in the second half of the month. F1 seeds remain viable for 4-5 years. Before sowing, for disinfection and prevention of future diseases, it is necessary to hold the seeds in a solution of potassium permanganate. After, the seeds are washed and soaked. There are 2 ways to do this: in wet gauze bags or in warm water. In the first case, it is important that the gauze is always moist, otherwise the seed will dry out and not germinate.
If you decide to germinate in water, you can keep the seeds in water no more than 18 hours, otherwise the seed will simply "suffocate" due to the lack of oxygen.
When the seeds are swollen, they need to be planted. It is better to do this with your hands, forceps can pierce the shell of the seed and harm the future embryo. You do not need to plant seeds deeply: a maximum of 1-1.5 cm. And put them in a sunny place.
After the first shoots appear, you need to monitor the soil moisture. When they get a little stronger, you can plant them in separate pots. Do not tighten with the seating: the roots grow quickly and can intertwine, and it is very difficult to untangle thin strings and you can kill future tomatoes.

Planted on the advice of a friend in a greenhouse. The bush is small and not spreading. There are many fruits. I planted it late, so we tried our tomatoes only at the end of July. I am very happy with the variety.
