Kubinskij Petukh
Kubinskij Petukh originated from a split from Cuban Salami, and retains the elongated, sausage shape with a distinct "nipple" on the end, sometimes described as Roman candle shaped. It is brick red, striped in dark green, and it a very impressive tomato to look at. The flesh is dark mahogany with scarlet overtones, with relatively few seeds compared to the amount of flesh. The flesh is buttery smooth, and sweet, like ripe dark fruit. Blackberries and blackcurrants. This is a dessert tomato of the highest order, and they make the most phenomenal sauce!
Indeterminate, very wispy leaves, and can be prone to BER due to the length of the fruit, so make sure they are well watered!
Indeterminate plants are vigorous plants with a vining tendency. They set their fruits at intervals along their stems, and will readily grow side shoots and suckers (shoots from ground level). They need good, strong support, and it is advisable to remove the majority of the side shoots and suckers unless you have plenty of space and fertile soil to allow them to grow to their full potential. See the guide on pruning indeterminates in the resources section of the website for tips.
