Tomato Bolid

The medium-maturing hybrid tomato 'Bolid' is a medium-height plant with moderate leafiness. The first inflorescence forms above the 8th-9th leaf, and subsequent ones form every three leaves. The leaves are of medium length, narrow, dark green, semi-amplexicaul, and doubly-pinnate. The inflorescences are simple, with internodes without joints, facilitating easy harvesting in clusters. Each cluster forms 6 to 8 round fruits weighing 100 to 130 grams, with 3-4 chambers. At ripening, the fruits acquire a bright red color and possess good flavor qualities, making them ideal for salad use. The 'Bolid' hybrid is characterized by high yield, reaching up to 14.5 kg per square meter, as well as resistance to diseases, particularly powdery mildew. The plants are semi-vegetative and technologically efficient, allowing effective use in extended cultivation cycles. The fruit pedicels lack joints, facilitating harvest and improving quality. Thanks to excellent transportability, the fruits maintain their market quality during transport and storage. Recommended for cultivation in various climatic zones, including the Northern, Northwestern, Central, Volga-Vyatka, North Caucasus, Ural, West Siberian, East Siberian, and Far Eastern regions. The hybrid was developed and released by the Joint-Stock Company 'Scientific Research Institute of Vegetable Crop Breeding' and included in the registry since 2022. 'Bolid' is a reliable choice for those who value high yield, fruit quality, and disease resistance.
