Description

Mazarini hybrid plants are indeterminate bushes up to 2 meters tall with numerous leaves. A flower cluster produces 5-6 fruits. The first tomato harvest is collected in June, the last – with the onset of frost.

The fruits are shaped like a heart or a giant strawberry. They are large, fleshy, have a pleasant aroma and a delicate, sugary flavor. Ripe tomatoes are a rich pink-red color. Their skin is quite thick, preventing cracking. The tomatoes have few seed chambers, making them a perfect salad variety.

This variety boasts a unique flavor and pairs beautifully with a variety of dishes. Mazarini tomatoes can be eaten in salads or on their own. These tomatoes are excellent for sauces. They can also be preserved whole. This processing gives the tomatoes a distinctive, slightly tart flavor that's wonderfully refreshing.

Mazarina tomatoes can also be used as a base for borscht. This variety pairs well with meat and fish. However, they should not be used in sandwiches, as their size prevents them from holding their shape well.

Growing recommendations

Mazarini seeds are sown without deepening (covered with soil) 55 days before planting the seedlings in the ground (in February-March). Tomatoes don't require extensive care; they can be fertilized using standard methods and common minerals. Therefore, tomatoes can be grown in a variety of conditions with equal productivity. Even a novice gardener can easily reap an excellent harvest. The only thing that needs careful monitoring is watering. Fruit that receives sufficient moisture has a sweet taste.

When the first leaves appear on the seedlings, the small bushes should be transplanted into individual pots. After this, liquid feeding is recommended. The plants of this variety need to be hardened off in the fresh air.

Plants should be transplanted into open ground in May, after fertilizing them. The soil also needs to be prepared: loosen it and add fertilizer (no more than 1 tablespoon) to each hole. The most practical planting pattern is 3 plants per square meter. Planting tomatoes too close together can significantly reduce yield. During the growing season, Mazarini tomatoes should be fertilized 4 more times (on average, every 2-3 weeks).

After planting, it's best to tie the plants to supports immediately. It's recommended to train the bush into a single stem. Pinching out side shoots is essential. Water tomatoes generously, preferably with warm water, but relatively infrequently.

The harvest should be done as the fruit ripens. This variety is disease-resistant, but disease prevention is essential. It's simple: avoid overwatering and fertilize the tomato plants promptly. Soil quality is also crucial. In greenhouses, the soil should be sifted, calcined, and the top layer replaced. Open soil can be irrigated with a solution of copper sulfate and manganese. Planted plants are recommended to be sprayed with biological preparations, including phytosporin.

Tomatoes can be attacked by pests. Washing the affected parts of the plant with soapy water will get rid of aphids, ammonia will kill slugs, and insecticides will neutralize spider mites. Mazarini tomatoes are an ideal choice for both novice and seasoned gardeners. The appearance, taste, and incredible aroma of these tomatoes attract even those who are new to vegetable growing. Harvesting a good harvest of Mazarini tomatoes is easy; the key is to follow simple guidelines and consider the plant's needs.
