Variety description

10 August 2026

The hybrid is a vigorous plant suitable for long-cycle cultivation in heated greenhouses, including hydroponics, where the stem height can reach 4 meters by the end of the season. The fruits are oval-shaped, ranging in color from purple to nearly black, with an average weight of 315–350 grams.

The variety is characterized by early fruit set: the first harvest is possible 35 days after transplanting, and the productive period lasts up to 10–11 months. In commercial vegetable production, the hybrid is often used as a grafted culture, where tomato is employed as rootstock to improve resistance to pathogens.
