The best varieties of greenhouse tomatoes

Modern varieties of tomatoes for the greenhouse must meet high requirements for a whole range of features. In this article, we will consider the best tomato varieties for 2017-2018, suitable for growing in greenhouses and greenhouses in various regions.

Indoor ground creates conditions close to the climate of this vegetable's homeland (tropical America), which allows you to get the most out of a small area. Heat accumulation and protection from cold, reliability are the most important advantages of a greenhouse over open ground.

But there are also disadvantages: excessive heat and high humidity, stagnant air and poor pollination, massive attacks of infections and pests, lack of taste occur. The genetically inherent potential of the variety plays an important role in the final quantity and quality of the crop.

Selection factors

It is not easy to single out the best varieties of tomatoes for greenhouses among the variety of assortments in 2018. Any gardener has his own understanding of the "best", each land plot has a special microclimate. Should be considered:

Purpose of growing: for the needs of the family or for sale

For implementation on the market, options are selected with standard, leveled fruits, transportable, with the highest possible return. For personal needs, everything is determined by your own predilections.

Purpose and variety of fruits

We love tomatoes for their incredible variety: in terms of ripening, shape, color, taste, nutritional value, culinary possibilities.

Before the start of the sowing season, you need to decide on your expectations: how many early vegetables you want, and how much will go for storage, whether whole-fruit canning is planned, etc. etc. Bias in favor of one group can lead to disappointment later on.

The need for stability or exoticism

There are gardeners with an ineradicable thirst for experimentation, for whom the indicators of productivity and reliability are not the most important.

Greenhouse design features

Many parameters matter.

• The assortment of tomatoes for year-round and summer greenhouses will differ. Plants for winter greenhouses (equipped with special heating) are expected to be more stress-resistant and tolerant of lack of sunlight.
• The temperature regime of the greenhouse plays a huge role. The possibility of timely through ventilation, length, air volume, number and location of doors and vents, thermoregulation automation, greenhouse materials (film, polycarbonate, glass, agrofibre) - all this affects the choice of tomato variety.

In an optimal, stable microclimate, any options will be successful.

But breeders also offer specially bred forms that can withstand extreme heat, temperature contrasts, and cold snaps.

Water supply

Tomato plants like constant moderate humidity in the root zone. If it is not possible to ensure this, it is necessary to plant varieties that are not prone to cracking of fruits, and are resistant to drought.

Disease prognosis

This factor is one of the most important in tomato greenhouse cultivation. Indoor ground accumulates many harmful pathogens, which are very difficult to resist.

Special hybrid varieties deal with this problem more successfully.

But some vegetable growers are principal opponents of hybrids because of their fear of GMOs, and some do not like the “rubber” density and fresh taste of the fruit, and the cost of hybrid seeds is high, there is a risk of running into a fake.

Giving preference to non-hybrid forms, you need to carefully consider agricultural technology: possibilities of crop rotation, disinfection of seeds and greenhouses, establishment of ventilation, regular chemical or biological treatments, etc.

Bush height and potential yield

Far from everything is decided by agricultural technology, each variety has its own "ceiling". Of course, the most productive varieties of tomatoes for greenhouses are the earliest ripening, but with a long return. As a rule, these are tall tomatoes - indeterminate. They are necessarily stepson, taking them out in 1-2 (less often 3) trunks.

Can determinate tomatoes be planted in a greenhouse? In general, the answer is yes, but the specific choice depends on the situation:

• Tomatoes with a determinate type of growth are convenient, but not too low - the so-called "semi-determinant". They themselves are inhibited in development at a height of 120-150 cm, tying several tiers of brushes. For the further continuation of their growth (if necessary), the upper stepson is left - he will replace the stopped top.
• Undersized determinants are sometimes used as curb compactors for greenhouse beds.
• Early maturing determinant tomatoes are a forced choice for greenhouses heavily infected with fungal and bacterial infections (when a significant part of the crop is lost annually). An early and friendly harvest will have time to ripen before the mass development of infections. After harvesting the fruits, the greenhouse is occupied with other vegetables (greens, radishes) or siderates.

Scheme: How to choose tomato seeds for greenhouses and open ground

Is it possible to grow different varieties of tomatoes in the same greenhouse?

The answer is simple: it is possible and even necessary. Tomatoes are a self-pollinated crop, and the harvest will set even if there is only one variety, this is quite acceptable.But this will not satisfy all needs; in addition, diversity reduces the role of the factor of instability and the risk of failure. It is advisable to plant both proven varieties and new selection annually.

New varieties of tomatoes

New items are the most resistant to diseases. The selection is also carried out to increase yields, uniformity of fruits, and improve taste.

Tomatoes for the greenhouse: the best varieties according to the reviews of gardeners in 2017

At the beginning of the sowing season, some gardeners think - what kind of tomato to choose for growing in a greenhouse this time? The reason for thinking may be different - some were not satisfied with the yield or taste of the fruits grown last year, others want to try something new.

To make it easier to choose, let's try to determine which tomato varieties according to user reviews in the past 2017 are the most:

• delicious;
• sweet.

The most delicious varieties of tomatoes

Taste preferences, as you know, are different for different people. This also applies to the evaluation of the taste properties of tomatoes.However, the juiciness of the fruit (not to be confused with "wateriness"), its aroma, the presence or absence of a harmonious combination of the main flavoring components in it, is perceived by the overwhelming majority of people approximately the same and is a fairly objective basis for classifying the fruit as tasty or not.

According to the reviews of most consumers, many domestic tomato varieties are superior to foreign ones in this parameter, including varieties of such famous breeding companies as Bejo Zaden or SYNGENTA AG, although they are inferior in a number of other characteristics (yield, transportability, disease resistance, etc.).

If you try to summarize the reviews, then often referred to as "tasty" varieties such as:

• Dad pink;
• Monomakh's hat;
• Giant pink;
• Budenovka;
• Pound pink rosemary.

These are large-fruited varieties that are excellent for fresh consumption, as well as for making salads and juice.

Note that pink tomato varieties are on average less productive than red ones, but according to most people, they have better taste. This list is certainly not limited to "tasty" varieties and other consumers may have their favorite types of tomatoes.

Sweet varieties of tomatoes

The concept of a sweet tomato variety is more specialized than a “tasty” variety. And here, too, most of the reviews were on the side of domestic varieties over foreign ones.

The explanation is simple. Foreign varieties are focused on commercial success - high yield, transportability, keeping quality, preservation of the presentation for a long time.

In contrast, tomatoes grown in greenhouses for personal consumption have higher taste requirements than those listed above.

Consumers speak well of such sweet varieties as:

• Malachite Box;
• Pink honey;
• Truffle;
• Dimensionless;
• Bull heart;
• Honey King;
• Chernomor;
• Orange giant.

There are also good reviews for other sweet varieties in all varieties of tomatoes for the appearance of their skin - green, orange, pink, red and purple.

A polycarbonate greenhouse is the best option for growing tomatoes. It creates reliable protection against weather disasters and spring frosts, the honeycomb material maintains a favorable temperature regime for plants.

The best varieties of tomatoes for the greenhouse

These are most often hybrids (the letter F on the package means that these seeds are of a hybrid form). Unlike varietal tomatoes, they are adapted to greenhouse conditions and are resistant to various diseases.

When choosing, also start from the type of plant branching. It is this characteristic that determines the care of tomatoes, the choice of a place for planting and the time of planting seeds for seedlings. There are four types:

• Indeterminate
• Determinant
• Semi-determinant
• Superdeterminate
