The best varieties of vegetables

When two summer residents meet, one can only hear talk about which variety has shown itself well, which seeds are not good for anything ... And everyone diligently remembers the names, though not new, but the most successful varieties. So we will dwell on those that did not fail in the garden

CARROT

For food

We have nowhere to store carrots, so in winter we are content with what we buy in the store. But in the summer without carrots in any way. We plant varieties Carotel and Minicor... We will not even try others, these are quite satisfactory. Sweet, very tasty, we love to make carrot salads, Korean-style carrots, and just have a fresh drink.

Konstantin Sabelnikov, Saratov

I want to tell you about a new variety of carrots that I discovered. Last year, my wife and I chose seeds, attracted attention Coreless carrots (it was written on the package, without any other indication of the variety). We decided to try it and were very pleased. Like other varieties - planted, thinned, fertilized, watered in the same way.

Carrots were born smaller than all the others, but tasty and sweet. When you cut it, there really is no core, it looks homogeneous. It did not come to storage: the grandchildren ate everything in the fall, and my wife really liked to make juice from it.

For storage

We were very surprised and pleased with the variety of carrots Touchon... He used to delight with the fact that it is well kept. But this year we had force majeure circumstances: our cellar was flooded, all the ammunition was put to the mother-in-law, and her vegetables managed to freeze a little. So we still eat Touchon - this did not affect the taste in any way!

Ilya Andreev, Gukovo, Rostov region

We used to only plant carrots Samson, like the whole family - red, juicy, there is almost no core. and stored perfectly. The main thing is not to overdo it with fertilizers: it begins to crack strongly. Last year I experimented, I really liked the inscription on a bag of carrots Nantes 4 in granules, that this is a bed for a lazy person.

And I, like any working person, have love for the dacha, but there is always not enough time. It is remarkable that the carrots in granules do not need to be thinned out, the roots are juicy, powerful, everything is as smooth as for selection, the variety is very good in maturation. This year I have already bought Nantes 4 on tape. They say that it is as problem-free as in the granules, the main thing is to spill it well after planting so that the granules melt and the tape is soaked. To make the carrots sweet, I feed them with potassium and magnesium. Once I brought in fresh organic matter and vowed to do so in the future: the carrots became pale and savory.

CABBAGE

Cabbage for pickling, storage

We have a cabbage family. We put special emphasis on late-ripening varieties in order to be with supplies in the winter. I really like cabbage Sugar Loaf... Suitable for both fermentation and storage. Heads of cabbage are all even, dense, one to one, without voids. Sweet, tasty and very juicy. The mass of heads of cabbage is 3-4 kg. A special plus - how much I grow, I never got sick. Good storage hybrid F1 Valentine, it does not crack, does not rot, and there is almost no stump. For fermentation, the best - Amager 611: does not darken and does not lose elasticity. From the elite, we have been planting a late one for many years grade F1 Lennox.

Yielding, plump, tiny stump.You look at the garden - you will admire, the handsome men are one to one, and there are no problems with storage. I throw it into a vegetable pit and lie right up to the fresh harvest.

Cabbage varieties for salad, for food

Proven varieties from the early are F1 Transfer and Golden Hectare 1432... Heads of cabbage up to 2 kg, tight. Very good for salads and cabbage soup. Recently suggested an interesting variety F1 Princess... It ripens early, but you can not cut everything off at once, it sits perfectly in the garden until autumn.

CUCUMBERS

Let's be friends!

Sometimes you really want something exotic on the site - so that the neighbors to the left of envy burst, and the neighbors on the right admire and ask for a sprout. But the natural caution of the gardener, and the frequent fakes and frauds (for example, the advertised "raspberry tree") discourage the desire to buy untested varieties. And in vain! Here are some unusual and tasty examples. They are all quite unpretentious, grow well in the conditions of the Moscow region. But they feel best in greenhouses.

Are the "little blue" ones now white? Or maybe with the taste of mushrooms?

The most exotic are yellow and red eggplants.

You won't surprise anyone with purple eggplants. And whites are no longer exotic. Summer residents fell in love with them primarily for the absence of bitterness, tender pulp and almost complete absence of seeds.

But have you tried mushroom-flavored eggplant? By the way, the variety is called "Mushroom Taste" - with a pleasant mushroom aroma. Can be grown both in greenhouses and outdoors.

With the taste of mushrooms, there is also a variety of eggplant called "Green". They are, indeed, green, with delicate flesh.

Very beautiful, unusual and delicious fuchsia pink eggplants. A real decoration of the greenhouse and summer cottage. The choice is "Pink Flamingo", "Balagur". Bumbo will be round. And "Matrosik" - in a cheerful pink strip.

Well, the most exotic ones are yellow and red eggplants. They have their own characteristics - a much higher content than in other varieties of carotene - vitamin A. Their flesh is a beautiful yellow or orange color. But all red or orange eggplants have their own peculiarity - when their color becomes especially beautiful, saturated, the flesh becomes bitter. Therefore, it is better to pick red ones with orange ones, and orange ones, respectively, with yellow ones. The most popular varieties are Japanese Red, Brazilian Oval Orange and Rotunda Red Eggplant.

When to plant: It is time to plant the eggplant seedlings. Early varieties begin to ripen within 3-4 months after the seedlings sprout, mid-ripening ones - after four to five. For the Moscow region, it is better not to plant late varieties, they are more suitable for the southern regions of Russia.

On average, it should take from 75 to 100 days until the seedlings are planted in open ground or greenhouses. That is, if you sow the seeds now, in mid-June they can be safely planted in open ground. To greenhouses - even earlier.

The blacker the tastier

If everyone is tired of blue purple eggplant, then purple, or rather - almost black - tomatoes will be curious to many.

Yellow varieties of tomatoes are also difficult to call a novelty.Although they contain a lot of useful substance lycopene, which is necessary for the heart and blood vessels, as well as vitamin A. Record holders for vitamins are considered to be the varieties "Ray", "Golden Domes", tender and sweet "Honey Drop", "Honey Spas".

These exotic fruits contain even more lycopene than yellow or orange tomatoes.

But back to our little black ones. These exotic fruits contain even more lycopene than yellow or orange ones. For example, a black tomato, Indigo Rose black or Black Galaxy. They look really black, although in fact they are dark maroon. But firstly, it is beautiful, and secondly, it is useful.

If, nevertheless, black tomatoes are too exotic for you, try planting their close brothers - with a brown-burgundy color: "Crème brulee", "Paul Robson", "Brown sugar".

They will feel best in greenhouses - in the open field, the harvest will not be as large as we would like.

When to plant:

All listed varieties are early and mid-season. That is, if you have not yet had time to sow the seeds, it's time to do it right tomorrow.

Disguised as chile

A very unusual variety of sweet red pepper was bred by Chinese breeders and called it "Snake". It looks really dangerous - it looks like a chili pepper. That is, deep red, thin (very rarely yellow or orange). The only difference is that the tip of the "snake" can be bent and, moreover, it is quite steep. The fruit can even curl into a ring.

But, of course, it is not burning at all - the pulp is tender and sweet, very aromatic. There are just a lot of fruits. Begins to bear fruit in June and ends in late September.

The flesh of this pepper is tender and sweet.

Caring for this variety is the easiest, it is no different from ordinary varieties. True, it is no longer suitable for stuffing. But how it decorates the site!

When to plant: The best time to plant peppers for seedlings is the end of February. But do not worry, this time is determined by summer residents who plant seedlings of peppers in greenhouses already in April. Therefore, if you did not have time to sow "snake" seeds, urgently do it now. Then in a couple of months you can plant the peppers in the greenhouse. Or even outdoors if the summer is warm.

Breeding is like haute couture

“Breeding is somewhat reminiscent of high fashion - couturier breeders fantasize and experiment, creating new, often very unusual varieties,” says agronomist Mikhail Vorobiev. - The goal is one - to attract the attention of buyers. Suffice it to remember that the carrots were originally creamy yellow and purple. And only in the 17th century, thanks to the efforts of breeders, it acquired the usual orange color. Having seen the overseas tomato fruit for the first time, the Europeans called it pomo d'oro - "golden apple". Not because the apples were expensive, but because of the golden yellow color. Only later were tomato varieties with red, orange, pink, brown and even green (ripe) fruits created.

New items with an uncharacteristic shape or color appear regularly. Suffice it to recall the white-fruited cucumbers ("White Angel", "Blond"), which are clearly visible among the green foliage, watermelon with yellow pulp ("Lunar"), rounded zucchini ("Tintoretto"), so convenient for stuffing and baking in an upright position ... The so-called "watermelon radish" with white skin and red pulp, and others.

Looking at such delights, consumers often have a question: is it not GMO? You don't have to worry, these are ordinary varieties that breeders have worked hard on. As for transgenic plants, according to the decree of the President and the order of the government, their cultivation on the territory of Russia is allowed only for scientific purposes.

In 2014, at the Biryuchekutskaya experimental station, they decided to find out what varieties are the most productive... More than 30 varieties and hybrids of tomatoes, 15 varieties of cucumbers, 10 zucchini, 5 varieties of sweet peppers, several varieties of cabbage, carrots, beets and other vegetables were sown.

The best in tomato there were early varieties -Aran-735, New Don, Gourmet;mid-season varieties -Aksay crimson, Stepan Razin, Gift; large-fruited -Astol (Royal),hybrid- Don-2 (yield record).

Have cucumbers the best were among the early -Pet andKrasnokutsk, among mid-ripening -Firefly andStork. Among the later, the best arePhoenix 640 andResastr. 

From zucchini the best varieties turned out to be -Zolotinka, Skvorushka, Anchor. 

From eggplant the most productive, as always, was the old varietyDiamond. The largest eggplants were in the varietyBulls-eye, and the most beautiful in color - atSailor.

Among watermelons of late varieties overtook everyone in harvestChillamong mid-season -Sinchevsky andCrimson Sweet; from the middle early, the variety turned out to be the bestGenerosity.

From the sown melons The early variety is recognized as the bestTitovka, mid-season varieties - Lada, Golden andSoutherner also turned out to be very good.

Among mid-season varieties and hybrids cabbage the most productive was the varietySail, and the most stable are hybridsExtra andValentine. Of the late varieties, the most productive was the varietyBiryuchekutskaya-138. 

Have beets the cultivar became the leader in yieldTwo-seeded TLCA,and carrots have a varietyRogneda.
