Tomato CUPID

The tomato variety Cupid is a mid-early hybrid with a semi-determinate growth habit, intended for fresh consumption. The plants are tall, reaching up to 1.5 meters in height, which allows for a high yield of large-fruited tomatoes. The fruits vary in shape — from flat-round to heart-shaped, have smooth skin, and a vibrant red color. Fruit weight ranges from 130-160 grams to 300-400 grams, and during early harvests, individual fruits may reach up to 1 kilogram. The flesh is dense and meaty, ensuring excellent taste.

The variety exhibits high resistance to a range of diseases, including phytophthora, cladosporeiosis, verticillium wilt, tobacco mosaic virus, and fusarium wilt, significantly simplifying care and increasing harvest reliability. Due to its genetic resistance to viruses and diseases, Cupid tomato is suitable for cultivation both in open ground and in plastic greenhouses, making it a versatile choice for various climatic conditions, especially in Central and Central Chernozem regions.

Cultivation agronomy includes sowing seeds from early to mid-March, followed by transplanting seedlings in the second decade of May, with row spacing of 50 by 50 centimeters. The vegetative period from emergence to initial ripening is approximately 100-110 days. Due to its high yield and large fruit size, Cupid is among the leaders among tall salad-type tomatoes, making it attractive to gardeners and farmers focused on obtaining quality and flavorful harvests.
