Variety description

10 August 2026

The plant is vigorous, with a well-developed root system and strong foliage that protects the fruits from sunburn. The hybrid is suitable for open field cultivation, allows for direct seeding into the soil, and demonstrates high yield under drip irrigation.

The fruits are distinguished by the absence of fiber in the flesh and a high sugar content. The hybrid possesses good transportability and the ability for long-term field storage after ripening. Resistant to Fusarium wilt (race 1) and anthracnose (race 1).
