Description of the variety “Mystery of Nature”
Tomato fruits are large and have quite an interesting color: the yellow layer on top only in some places allows a pink tint to pass through, but in the cross section you will see a beautiful, uniform soft pink color. They taste sugary, with a slight pleasant sourness. Externally, the fruits are smooth and large. The yield per 1 m2 can reach 20 kg, provided that ideal growth conditions are maintained.
Initially, the variety was developed for cultivation in greenhouses and under film, where the stem can reach 2 meters in height. But even when planted in open ground, “The Mystery of Nature” will delight you with large and tasty fruits.
The ripening period of the fruit is 108-110 days, which is a fairly short period for large fruits. Another distinctive feature is that the variety bears fruit evenly and for a long time, as long as the growing season allows it. “The Mystery of Nature” is perfect for fresh consumption, in salads. It is better to preserve it in the form of tomato juice or sauce; due to the large size of the fruit, placing it whole in a jar is unrealistic.
Advantages and disadvantages of the variety
Like any variety, “The Mystery of Nature” has its advantages and disadvantages that you need to know before you start growing the variety. Let's look at them in more detail. Positive aspects of the variety:
- High yield level
- Excellent taste: sweetish with pleasant sourness
- Resistance to changes in temperature and humidity. These indicators do not affect the yield and size of the fruit in any way.
- Juicy fruits, perfect for tomato juice and sauce
- Original colors
But there are also a number of disadvantages that need to be taken into account:
- Massive fruits have a corresponding stalk, so it will sometimes be difficult to harvest by hand, so take scissors or a knife with you to the garden.
- The fruits have a rather delicate skin, so they need to be stored very carefully and eaten or processed as quickly as possible.
- The stems are tall, so you need to tie them up. During the ripening period, each brush needs a garter or additional support due to the large weight that the plant cannot always support on its own.
As you can see, there are much more positive aspects than negative ones, and the disadvantages are not so global, and come down to ordinary care and careful fruit storage.

After this period, the seedlings can be planted in open ground. Remember, this type of tomatoes is tall, they will need supports, so you need to plant sprouts no more than 3 pieces per 1 m2. The first cluster with fruits will appear after 8-9 leaves, the next after another 3 leaves, and so on. Remember that each cluster with fruit must be tied up, otherwise it will simply break off.
