As another Lame Cherry exclusive in matter anti matter.
This is review of the Russian Azoychka tomatoe which I had grown before and just one site offered the seeds and before the end of the world I wanted to taste it again......as TL never had one before.
These tomatoes are yellow with red blush on the bottom and or top. They are very pretty.
Never watered them and it got dry and we got these huge tomatoes, very good flavor which smells like tomatoe, is fresh, clean, has a hint of musty Brandwine, is pleasant in the sour and acid taste with no after taste. TL liked the very much.
I do not like tomatoes which are not acidic. That is the point of a tomatoe, so that is what I grow are tomatoes which are more acidic and this Russian is amazing in the paler a tomatoe is they less flavor they have. This Russian will stand up to any red heirloom, will beat every American hybrid like Fantastic and is superior to any yellow tomatoe grown.
It is a pretty and pleasant tomatoe.
It made me nostalgic for when I was planting lots of heirlooms looking for acidic tomatoes. I went through allot of tomatoe varieties, and in most cases I like the Big Boy, as it is fresh, green tasting and acidic. Is what I grew up with and to me that is what a tomatoe is supposed to taste like.
For the Brier, when we get a hot summer, enough rain, the right soil nutrients we grow some wonderful melons and tomatoes which are at peak flavor. The secret is not over watering as that waters down the fruit.
Now we have plenty of seeds and will be growing these again. This plant was huge as TL said it tipped over an industrial sized tomatoe cage built with quarter inch rod.
The Russians turn out fantastic flavored fruit and garden crops.
Nuff Said
