Variety description

10 August 2026

The hybrid belongs to the early-ripening category with medium vigor. Fruits have a round or slightly oval shape, weighing between 2 and 4 kg. The skin color features a tiger pattern consisting of green stripes of varying intensity.

The watermelon flesh is red with a high sugar content. A characteristic feature is the presence of very small micro-seeds that are almost imperceptible when eaten. The hybrid demonstrates high yield and suitability for cultivation in open field and protected cultivation conditions.

The variety is intended for the single-serving watermelon segment. Due to its biological qualities, it can be used as a pollinator for seedless hybrids, and is also suitable for cultivation in monoculture.
