Thanks alot man very informative

I'm always looking for short season tomatoes. My understanding is that these originated in Siberia. I'm growing this year for the first time. I also planted a determinate called New Yorker, also bred for shorter seasons.

I read somewhere that this variety originated in Siberia. !

[@cindysquirrelloffgrid9514]

yes i love a recommendation from someone who has actually grown and ate it for years, thank you for sharing

[@HickorycroftFarm]

This one has been a battle for us. We love the flavor and have been trying to improve the quality for years with seed selection. It is a great tomato!

[@RemsFamily]

Here I am struggling with my tomatoes every year lol Good job as usual guys

[@HickorycroftFarm]

We are drawing in tomato sauce at the moment lol. We are picking 30 plus pounds a day but it is needed to make ketchup and pasta sauce and all the other goodies. We definitely have good and bad years with it though.

We will definitely be "branching out" next season! We have predominantly grown cherry tomatoes and will look to see if we can find seeds for the Black Prince and Scotia. Thanks for the in-depth review!

[@HickorycroftFarm]

Glad you enjoyed. We are quite picky about our tomatoes here. We have tried many varieties and have really narrowed it down. This year we tried 4 new ones and so far 2 of those are not on next year's list. Thanks for watching guys! We have to get caught up with your garden too!

[@amankubuy]

nice job..good tomatoes..sweet and sour taste...

[@HickorycroftFarm]

Tomatoes are excellent and this is a good kind to grow for flavor!

[@BrambleHillHomestead]

I have never grown this type of tomato so super interested to learn about it from you guys! Thanks for this! ~Erinn

[@HickorycroftFarm]

I remember looking into so many varieties when we started and this was one that came up for taste. So we tried it and its been with us ever since! Its always fun and interesting to get exposure to new plants and varieties from others who have worked with them. We have picked up a few along the way from watching other KZbinrs and seeing what they like to grow!

[@IndianaBackyardGardener]

I am looking to grow these next year. They have been said to produce even in cooler climates.

[@HickorycroftFarm]

They do seem to do ok with cooler weather, and even seem to tolerate a bit of shade (which may be due to their preference for cooler temperatures). I would highly recommend giving them a try at least, the taste is worth the effort!

[@LittleGardenBigDreams]

Love a favorite plant recommendation. I have so many seeds I have to try…. Where do I stop?… lol xx Cathi xx

[@HickorycroftFarm]

This is certainly a tried and true variety. When I edited this one I realized how many of the "negatives" I listed and it certainly does have its faults but it tastes so good! If you have the space its certainly worth trying but will admit its not a variety we would likely choose to grow in a big way. But then again that's the nice part of gardening you can have so many seeds and try some varieties you could never get at the grocery store and grow them just because you get a few good meals out of them during the growing season and because you like the taste. Not every variety in the garden has to be a main crop to see you through the winter!
