The opinion of experienced gardeners
I first tried to grow the Fifty variety three years ago. The tomato has become a regular guest of the garden beds due to its good yield, unpretentiousness and sweet taste. Due to the low height of the bush, there is no need to tie it up. Produces well in a small greenhouse. In hot summer, the fruits ripen in three months.It is convenient to preserve tomatoes and crumble them for salad. Perfect for cool regions. I recommend it to all gardeners!

Last summer, Fifty harvested a gorgeous tomato crop, 4 kilograms per bush. The result impressed not only me, but also my neighbors. Now the whole village is planting. The variety is great for curling. With proper care, the harvest is enough for the whole winter. The taste of ripe berries is sweet and sour. Tomatoes have a long shelf life and are easy to transport. We eat fresh until mid-November. The pets are happy! I plan to increase the plantation, if the summer is hot, I will plant tomatoes in open ground. I will definitely share the result.

All tomato lovers will consult. Feel free to plant the Fifty variety in places with hot summers. Very persistent, high temperatures are not a hindrance to a good harvest. After gathering, I spun tomatoes for the whole winter, and I also had enough for salads. Very stress-resistant variety. It tolerates well not only heat, but also fungal diseases. In watering not whimsical, I watered twice a week. Of the important points of care - loosening and feeding. I fed it four times with complex fertilizer. The taste is excellent, sweet and juicy. Plant the Fifty variety, you will definitely not regret it.
