We present to your attention several of his assessments.
- The description of the variety "Star of the East" practically does not differ from the characteristics of other hybrids, but I choose it from year to year. First, it gives an excellent harvest; secondly, very tasty; thirdly, it is suitable for any experiments in the kitchen. For those who are looking for a really good tomato, I recommend choosing the "Star of the East". (Olga Dmitrievna, Voronezh region, Liski)
- I heard only positive reviews about the "Star of the East" f1 tomato. I haven't planted it myself yet, I'm just planning. But a neighbor gave me some tomatoes to try. The taste is unusual, pleasant, slightly sweet. A salad variety, as I understood, but I was just looking for one. I will plant next season. (Svetlana Arkadyevna, Kostroma)
- Just a great hybrid! Unlike some neighbors in the greenhouse, I did not pick up the tobacco mosaic, which we were immensely happy about. As for the palatability, here the variety also showed itself on a good side. The taste is very delicate and sweet, with a subtle sourness. (Valeria Andreevna, St. Petersburg)
- How much I love hybrids for their amazingly large harvest. 35 kg per square meter is a serious indicator. I especially note that the "Star of the East" is almost picky, does not require difficult care. I also liked her because she perfectly tolerated long storage in the refrigerator. (Valentina Vasilievna, Tambov)
- There are no comments on the tomato. Beautiful, tasty, unpretentious. We will plant more if we don’t find something better. (Olesya, Obninsk)
- The variety is simply irreplaceable for fresh salads. Fleshy and juicy fruits give them a unique taste. But in pickled form, I did not like these tomatoes at all. It turned out some unpleasant, viscous (where the viscosity came from - I don't know). But apparently each variety has its own purpose. (Alina, Kazan)
