Variety description

10 August 2026

Early-maturing hybrid, ripening in 55–70 days after seedling transplanting. The plant is vigorous, compact, with a developed root system and good foliage. Recommended planting density is up to 6–9 thousand plants per hectare.

Fruits have an elongated-oval shape, light green color with dark stripes, and an average weight of 8–12 kg. The flesh is bright red, tender, crisp, with a sugar content of 11–12% on the Brix scale. Peel thickness is 1–1.5 cm, which ensures resistance to cracking and transportability.

The hybrid possesses intermediate resistance to Fusarium wilt and anthracnose, is adapted to adverse weather conditions, and is not prone to fruit set drop. Yield is 60–80 t/ha, with 1–2 fruits formed on one plant.
