Marmandino ribbed tomato is a very early variety of the Marmande group, with abundant productivity and strong disease resistance, producing bright red, slightly ribbed berries.
It belongs to the species Solanum lycopersicum, family Solanaceae. An indeterminate-growth plant, vigorous, with short internodes and good covering foliage.
Sow in a heated seedbed between February and March, with soil temperature between 20 and 25°C; transplant after the last frosts, in late spring.
It prefers fertile, well-drained soil, even partly saline, with sunny exposure and regular watering; the plant needs staking and periodic side-shoot removal.
Harvest is staggered from July to September; the large, slightly ribbed fruits should be picked at full red colouring to best appreciate their fleshy pulp.
A variety known for its strong resistance to the main tomato diseases; crop rotation and good ventilation further help prevent fungal problems.
The fleshy, flavourful pulp is suitable both for fresh consumption in salads and for making sauces and preserves, thanks to the generous size of the fruits.
Rich in lycopene, vitamin C and potassium, Marmandino tomato has antioxidant properties beneficial to overall wellbeing.
