Since "Nevsky Yubileiny" is a fairly well-known variety, it has already received many ratings from summer residents.
We suggest that you familiarize yourself with some of them.
- I live in the Urals and we can grow Nevsky tomato only in a greenhouse. Ripens early. Tiny miniature bushes, small fruits and few of them. The variety cannot be called unpretentious, since there is a risk that it will not bear fruit without mineral fertilizers. (Alla Sergeevna, Sverdlovsk region)
- From my neighbor, an advanced summer resident, I heard the characteristics and description of the Nevsky tomato variety. The variety immediately interested me, since it is early, and I was just looking for one. I planted 6 bushes in a greenhouse, did everything as expected, but the result was a little disappointing. There are very few tomatoes on the bush and do not shine with taste, as it seemed to me. In general, the result was not worth the effort. (Valentina Petrovna, Tambov)
- Caring for Nevsky tomatoes is not easy. It is necessary to observe the feeding regime. Potassium and phosphorus fertilizers are best suited. As for the fruits, they are tasty and juicy. Well suited for making homemade products. (Olga, Moscow)
