Tomatoes harvested in milk ripeness are perfectly ripened.
Harvest from one square meter is at least five kilograms. With a high level of agricultural technology, the yield can reach 3 kg per plant. With a planting density of 4 - 5 pieces per square meter, it is possible to collect up to 12 - 15 kg of marketable fruits from this area. With a thickened arrangement of bushes, pinching is a mandatory procedure.
Short plants
The characteristic and description of the Tanya F1 variety as determinant assumes a small growth of the bush and its certain compactness. The length of the main stem is 50 - 75 cm. For outdoor cultivation this is the optimal height - not large, but not too small. The bush is convenient for garters, but provides an excellent harvest.
The stems of the hybrid are strong, very powerful. The foliage is medium in size, but dense - it perfectly protects the fruits from overheating. The leaf apparatus is actively working for the harvest. Only the lowest leaves that are in contact with the soil are subject to removal.
Pinning issues
A detailed description of the tomato variety Tanya F1 is impossible without discussing the problem of pinching. The creators of this hybrid offer two options for working with it.
If the gardener does not have time to remove stepchildren, a good harvest will grow even without this procedure. But you can get larger fruits, and even in the early stages.
This is achievable if you apply a single plucking of the side shoots. The procedure takes very little time. They approach the bushes when the first brush blooms. As a rule, such a moment comes shortly after the tomatoes are planted in the ground, when the plants take root and start growing. At this time it is necessary to remove all lateral shoots below the first brush, leaving small "hemp". Stepchildren won't grow back here anymore. At the same time, competing shoots that have jumped out of the ground at the foot of the main stem are neatly pulled out.
Numerous reviews of gardeners testify to the great effectiveness of such moderate pinching. It is not recommended to harvest stepchildren growing higher along the trunk - they form the lion's share of the tomato crop. Tomato bushes Tanya F1 require a mandatory garter - you must not allow the plants to buckle under the weight of the harvest.
Usually only the main stem is attached to the support, sometimes the most powerful stepsons are also picked up. Individual brushes generally do not need to be tied.
