Variety description

10 August 2026

The hybrid belongs to the early or mid-early maturity group with a vegetation period of 60–65 days from transplanting or 70–82 days from sowing. The vining plant has strong growth and a high fruit-setting ability under various weather conditions.

The fruits have an oval or broad-elliptical shape and a dark green surface with wide stripes. The flesh is bright red, has a crispy structure, and contains small seeds. The average fruit weight is 9–12 kg, reaching 13–16 kg under favorable conditions.

The plant is resistant to anthracnose and Fusarium wilt, as well as to sunburn due to the developed foliage covering the fruits. The hybrid is suitable for cultivation in open field and under film covers, and is characterized by high transportability and marketability of the produce.
