Moskvich is getting another shot next year in my garden. Production wasn't the greatest but it was also in an non-ideal location, sandwiched between two other tomato plants. But the take away for me is that the fruit is a nice size, fairly early producer, disease free, and most importantly it has a bunch of good classic tomato flavor that is hard to come by today. No cracking or cat facing on any of the fruit. Out of the 12 or so varieties I grew this year, this was definitely in the top 2 for flavor.

We try dozens of varieties of tomatoes each year and this is always one of our favorite tasting tomatoes. We grow it every year. We even grew it in containers last winter under a grow light and it produced terrific tomatoes, though not as many as outside in the full warm summer sun. However, considering our house in the winter is about 68F in the daytime and 10 degrees cooler at night, I'd say this tomato did very well in the winter, at these cool temperatures. Flicked the flowers to pollinate indoors.
