So let's see what can be chosen in accordance with this classification.

Which varieties to choose?

So, what kind of tomatoes to plant on your owngarden? If you are going to grow them in a greenhouse, then choose only determinant and semi-determinant hybrids. They are compact, give thin and weakly branched bushes and, as a rule, do not require pasynkovaniya. Open the beds plant varieties of different maturation periods, taking a small part under the early and late-ripening, and the main - for the mid-ripening. So you will ensure the continuous fruiting of your "tomato beds" from early summer to the middle (and not to the south and to the end) of autumn. By the way, about the North and South. If the summer in your region is cold and short, then choose early varieties of tomatoes and give up large-bodied varieties. And in the South you can safely plant any tomatoes, focusing only on their taste qualities and their own goals: salt, pickle or serve. And one more tip: choose only zoned varieties that have already been successfully tested in your region. Have a good harvest! We advise you to read:
