Dyadya Styopa
Origin:
Russia (Siberia)
Description:
A UFO from Siberia! The Dyadya Styopa tomato is a huge elongated tomato (type San Marzano). Particularly suited to harsh climates (well, it's not as sturdy as a fir tree either...),a vigorous plant and quite productive. A variety with firm flesh mainly used cooked or for making sun-dried tomatoes.
An excellent cooking tomato, which can also be consumed in salads (but that's not where it excels).
Rating out of 10 (taste): 7.5/10
Cultivation tips:
Although it is an excellent tomato, its fragility leads us to advise you not to cultivate only this variety (never put all your eggs in one basket).
The Dyadya Styopa tomato is sensitive to apical necrosis, it is a variety that is a good candidate for grafting. Feel free to read our article on grafting tomatoes.
We grow this variety outdoors, but if you have the option, prefer to grow it in a greenhouse.
