Tomato "Shuttle"

Today, the variety of tomato varieties offered by breeders amazes potential buyers. In the markets you can find seeds of balcony tomatoes, tomatoes colored yellow or burgundy, with different shapes - some of them are oblong, others look like peppers or pears.

But among all this abundance I would like to highlight tomato "Shuttle". This variety is perfect for practicing for beginning vegetable growers, since the plant does not require labor-intensive tying and pinching. And caring for a tomato consists of moderate watering, loosening, removing weeds and fertilizing. Tomato can be grown both in greenhouse conditions and in open ground.

Tomato "Shuttle" good tolerates cold, He resistant to late blight. It is convenient to grow in a limited land space, which is possible due to the compactness and weak branching of the bush.

Fruiting of tomatoes extended and early, which means that harvesting will be possible for a long time already three months after planting the seedlings. "Shuttle" is easily recognized by its smooth, red fruits, which have a characteristic plum-shaped with a sharp tip.

This variety of tomatoes will appeal to lovers of canning and housewives who prefer small-volume containers and whole fruit pickling. Small oval-elongated fruits look great both on the table and in small jars with a spicy marinade.

Due to the dense structure of the fruit pulp, “Shuttle” tomatoes tolerate transportation well. The harvest can be stored in deep containers and not have to worry about tomato puree being brought into the house.
