Tomato 'Sibirskiy Skorospelyi'

I have a mixed experience with this one.
Last summer it was the first summer in Iceland I tried siberian tomatoes outdoors, the su...Read Moremmer was unusually cold so only one variety produced a crop (Sibirjak).

The Sibirskiy Skorospelyi did grow slowly as well (but less than the Sibirjak) and flowered but failed to set fruit (days were between 10ºC to 15ºC).

However Sibirskiy Skorospelyi is quite frost hardy. 10cm tall seedlings stand -5ºC (some seedlings are severely defoliate though), overall this variety seems to survive freezing temperatures a bit better than Sibirjak, but Sibirjak seems to set fruit at colder temperatures.

I will give it a second try this year.
