Tatiana Kouchnareva (B.C KO T). Novcerkasskij 416 - sliced fruit. 2013-08-03.

B.C KO T

Compact indet., regular leaf plants. 4-8 oz red fruits shaped like beefsteaks, with some green shoulders. Flesh is very meaty and juicy, with small seed chambers. Delicious flavor, more acidic than sweet. This is a great tomato, and I am very happy it was 're-discovered' and rescued from the USDA seed vaults.

Seed source:

Norbert R. Pikovsky, Johnstown, Pennsylvania (PA PI N2) 08 / USDA

Year grown: 2013

Location: Zone 7b, PNW, Anmore, BC, Canada (760 ft above sea level)


History

  • Developed at the Biryuchekutsk's Vegetable Research Station by selection from Kulenkamff tomato.
  • PI 321069. Donated to USDA in 1967 by the All-Union Institute of Plant Industry, Leningrad through L.H. Lyall, Canada. Seeds collected from former Soviet Union.
  • USDA description:
"Plant indeterminate. Fruit flat globe 5.7 cm by 8.3 cm, 8 to 9 locules around solid core, uneven ripening, early."
  • First offered in the Seed Savers 2007 Yearbook by Norbert Pikovsky, Pennsylvania (PA PI N), who got the seeds from the USDA.
  • Correct spelling of the name should be 'Novocherkasskij' or 'Novocherkasskiy'. Having said that, I would recommend to stick with the original name, 'Novcerkasskij 416'.



Russian name: Новочеркасский 416

The name means 'No. 416, from Novocherkassk'.
