Andrey's 2023 garden

[Barb_FL]

Thank you for the update. Your plants look great on the windowsill.

I loved the pictures especially those with Alexandr Bendrik.

Wishing you a wonderful growing season.

Andrey, I love the pictures! Hope your garden is blessed with great production this year.

Hi,
how are your tomato seedlings?

[Andrey_BY]

Everything is growing fine, but not so fast cause I got Windows to the East and North.

[Andrey_BY]

Dacha is blooming and to be prepared to transplant seedlings in greenhouses.
When I have no opportunity to change old soil in GH I change row scheme as on first 2 photoes below.

We even had Northern Lights last weekend for the first time I'm living here.

I see that life is waking up at the dacha and work is in full swing
In relation to my location, you have 2 weeks ahead.
Beautiful pictures of the aurora.

I'll be planting it in the greenhouse in 2 weeks at the earliest. I want to avoid the risk of frost

[Andrey_BY]

Deltoro, you are about 900km away to the West from my dacha and you are located close to the Baltic see. So your climate is a bit different. Maybe about a week from us with even shorter spring
My older daughter now is living in Warsaw. And they are 2 weeks ahead Minsk with much warmer weather

[rxkeith]

you are certainly ahead of me.

snow has finally disappeared off the garden the past week. still have piles of it on the
ground, and under the pines. but, we are getting there.

Andrey,
I was looking at pictures of your trees. They have more developed flowers than mine. In addition, your tulips are already blooming nicely, and mine just woke up
In Poland we also have big differences. In Pomerania, I can have a delay of 2 to 3 weeks compared to the south of the country.

[Andrey_BY]

Tomek, our tulips are ready to bloom, but only few are blooming now And today is much colder outside (only +4 +8 C). April is very changing here.
I've been to Krakow once so I understand that South Poland is much warmer.

I see you are growing Tarasenko #7. Have you grown # 6 also ? Which one do you like better ?

Since I've introduced Hybryd Tarasenko 6 to US and W.Europe about 15 years ago I have to say that I'm in love with all Feodosiy Tarasenko tomato varieties. They are vigirous, very prolific with large semi and multiflora-type and tasty. Actually they are noy hybrids, but a stabilized crosses. But In USSR we called they hybrids.
Hybrid Tarasenko 7 is the only Tarasenko variety with bushy type of plant 80-100cm high. It said to have PL so this is my first time to try it

[KarenO]

I have grown Terasenko 6. A very tall and vigorous vine with medium globe shaped brown fruit. It did quite well here for me. I have tried a number of the Terasenko varieties my favourite was Chyornyi of the ones I have grown. They all seem to do well in general here in Canada although I had some issues with BER on the pointed reds.
I am interested to see what Terasenko 7 is like, I hope you post photos. Is it a pointed red?
