Variety description

10 August 2026

The hybrid King Size F1 (SEMO a.s.) belongs to the species Cucurbita pepo L. and is a hulless pumpkin intended for seed production. The fruits of this hybrid are characterized as flattened and large, the ripening period is later compared to the variety Gurman, and there is resistance to viruses.

In the Russian segment, the name Кинг Сайз describes a large-fruited pumpkin (Cucurbita maxima Duchesne). This is a mid-late variety with a growing season of 115–125 days and a vining plant. The fruits are elliptical, segmented, smooth, dark orange in color, with a weight of 10–12 kg.

The flesh of the large-fruited variety is yellow, juicy, and of medium density and thickness. The fruits are transportable, retain their commercial quality for 90–100 days after harvest, and are recommended for fresh consumption and processing.
