Presented work introduces the results of comparative analysis concerning selected mechanical properties of greenhouse Admiro and Encore and soil-grown Surya and Polset tomato’s cultivars skin, stored at 13°C. A statistically significant effect of both: variety and storage time on the Young’s modulus, critical stress and Poisson’s ratio values was observed. The Young’s modulus determined for greenhouse fruit’s skin demonstrated considerably higher values than observed for the soil-grown varieties, in addition the highest values were set for an Encore while the lowest one for a Polset variety. The values of Young’s modulus and critical stress decreased with the storage time growth while the Poisson’s ratio remained in the range from 0.4 to 0.49. Poisson’s ratio, established for greenhouse tomato’s peel, took higher values than in the Encore variety case.
