Variety description

10 August 2026

The hybrid belongs to the Piel de Sapo variety type and is intended for cultivation in the open field and under plastic covers. The vegetation period is from 70 to 85 days. The plant is vigorous, with a well-developed leaf canopy, which protects the fruits from the sun and is adapted to stress conditions.

The oval-shaped fruits weigh on average 3.5–4.5 kg and have a dark green rind with slight relief. The flesh is firm, juicy, and white. The hybrid is resistant to cracking, Fusarium, powdery mildew, Melon necrotic spot virus, and melon aphid. The fruits are suitable for long-term storage for up to 6 months.
