Correction : Moskvich ( not Moskowich ). It is supposed to be a determinant and early. So I can even plant one in a container.

I have grown Green Zebra. But did not like its taste and ripe color. But Red zebra looked nice and the taste was ok. Both are developed by Tom Wagner, I think. I am a sucker for tomato's look and color.

Hey there, Sey! I grew Moskvich this past season and found it a very favorable early season tomato. The first few fruit were absolutely amazing. The plant stopped producing well during very hot periods, but reinvigorated itself once the weather cooled slightly in mid-August and produced abundantly through frost. I will say the plant portrayed odd habits for me as far as growth is concerned - I would bet some growing stems were close to 10 feet long, but it produced like a determinate in that it gave quite a few fruit early and then again later in the season. The plant itself never looked sickly or tired, quite the opposite, actually, but definitely slowed during the hottest part of the season. The flavor was good (very good early in the season), though, and the tomatoes were almost all perfectly round and a nice size - anywhere from 4-7oz. According to my notes from the season, my plant produced 59 tomatoes at an average of just over 4oz per fruit for a total of 14.88 pounds of tomatoes. I grew it in an Earthbox with another indeterminate plant (Uncle Mark Bagby) that also produced extremely well, so your mileage may vary if you grow in-ground or in a raised bed.

I won't be growing it again in 2017, but have no problem recommending.

Thanks nmb , I will grow Moskvich to find out how it does in my climate/garden.

Lots of previous discussions here about both Red Zebra and Moskovich. IMO RZ is a hard spitter, M is worthwhile early.

Thanks, Dave

The RZ that I bought at farmers market did not taste good either. So I won't grow it but I will grow Moskovich. It is early and determinant . That is what I have gathered.
