Need some Nyagous info
A lady at a Russian tomato forum found some Nyagous seeds. But she can't find the exact info on the shape of this variety.I've decided to help her and ask the pro's. Is it supposed to be round or oval in shape? Or maybe both???

Thank you, Nicky. Been there. It says that the fruit is supposed to be round, but on some pics they're somewhat oval.

Every time I've grown them they've been a bit oval. Seems like the shape variese a little bit.

By size, in my garden, over more than one year this is a more-or-less round brown slicer. It sets clusters of 3 to 5 fruit per brace. Fruit weight rarely exceeds 4 oz each.
On a semi-determinate vine.

Semi-determinate? Really? Mine haven't been huge plants, but they keep pumping them out - moreso that most of my other varieties. Tania's also lists them as indeterminate.

Mine grow about 9' tall before the freeze out, and they produce all the way through. clusters of 4-6 racketball sized tomatoes.

Thanks everyone for your replies. So, I guess the shape does vary. I will let the lady know not to be worried, if she gets both shapes of fruit
