Carrera F1 Melon is a mid-season hybrid of the Pineapple type, developed by breeders from Nunhems Zaden in the Netherlands. This variety is intended for open-ground cultivation and is distinguished by its unpretentiousness regarding agricultural conditions, as well as good adaptation to various climatic conditions. The plant is compact, with powerful long stems and large leaves, actively developing even under high solar activity and without regular watering. Carrera F1 possesses immunity to major diseases such as Fusarium wilt and powdery mildew, which significantly eases care and increases crop resilience.
Carrera F1 melon fruits have an oval shape and weigh 3-4 kg. The rind is colored yellow-orange and covered with a thick, well-defined ribbed netting. The flesh is bright orange, firm, juicy, and crisp, with high sugar content, giving it a rich, pleasant taste and characteristic aroma. Due to its taste qualities and appearance, the melon is in demand on the fresh market.
The hybrid is characterized by high yield, good transportability, and storability, which allows maintaining fruit quality during transport and storage. The maturity period is 65-70 days from seedling planting to harvest, making Carrera F1 a convenient choice for seasonal cultivation. It is recommended to consume the melon fresh, allowing one to fully enjoy its taste and aromatic properties.
