The difference between southern hybrids

The main feature, the “highlight” of hybrids bred for cultivation in the southern parts of the country, is an incredible amount of bright green foliage that covers the entire bush. The green “shovel” protects the fruits of tomatoes from the scorching hot southern sun. In this regard, the harvest of southern hybrids ripens a little longer than the northern "brethren". 4.5 to 5 months is a good time for the south, as the summer here lasts much longer. The fruits have time to ripen during the season.
