Viviparium had no veins at all. There were only white stripes, which did not affect the taste in any way. By the way, they have the most pleasant taste, the way tomatoes should have.
Well, the latest variety “Volgogradsky” is also without veins. It just has white strings that don’t affect the taste. Here you can see very clearly that the seeds are very well attached and are located in the so-called placenta. But in store-bought tomatoes this is a very hard and very tasteless part.
Therefore, let’s summarize the results of our experiment.
“Pink Frigate” turned out to be the variety that contains such veins. If the tomato is healthy, then these veins indicate that this bred variety is adapted to long-term storage and transportation, during which it will not be damaged.
The next variety that came in second place. It is much better than store-bought tomatoes. But everything is written on the packaging, so there is no point in complaining.
Perhaps these light veins appear as a result of exposure of the fruit to some chemicals that accelerate the growth of the tomato. This happens because the pulp is ripe, but everything else is not. Therefore, the “placenta” becomes dry and hard.
What if you don’t want to eat bad tomatoes?
You should not buy early tomatoes. You need to understand that they were definitely stuffed with something in order to quickly send them for sale. If you pay attention to the tomatoes that are sold at the end of summer, you will notice that they have almost no such veins.
Read carefully what is written on the seed packaging. Do not take varieties that are intended for transportation.
Water your tomatoes regularly and monitor the climate. If conditions are not very favorable for them, then veins will appear accordingly.
But in any case, if you grew them yourself, they automatically become safe.
