Tomato seeds «Red Stone»

Tomato «Red Stone» - mid-season variety. The bush reaches up to 60 cm in height. A high-yielding variety with fruits weighing about 80 g. The fruits are red, dense, sweet, and plum-round in shape. The flesh is thick and meaty. An excellent low-maintenance variety for pickling and canning, with fruits that store very well for up to 2 months.

Tomatoes require a sunny location with light, fertile soil and good drainage. Seeds are sown for seedlings 55–65 days before transplanting into open ground or a greenhouse. The optimal growing temperature is +22…+26 °C during the day and not lower than +15 °C at night. Transplanting is carried out when the soil warms up to +12…+14 °C, following a spacing of 40–50 cm between plants and 60–70 cm between rows.

Care includes regular watering with warm water (preferably drip irrigation), loosening and mulching the soil, and fertilizing with organic and mineral fertilizers. Plants are formed into 1–2 stems by removing side shoots and tying them to supports. For disease prevention, proper greenhouse ventilation and crop rotation are important. Timely harvesting of fruits stimulates continued fruiting.
