Tomato Finalist F1 is an early indeterminate hybrid designed for cultivation in all types of greenhouses. From germination to fruit ripening, it takes approximately 90-95 days, allowing for a quick harvest. The plant has an open, compact habit with shortened internodes and moderate growth vigor. The first truss forms after 7-9 leaves, and subsequent trusses form every 2-3 leaves, each bearing 4-6 fruits. The recommended planting scheme is 70x40 cm, ensuring optimal density and high yields of over 23-25 kg per square meter.
The fruits of tomato Finalist have a flat-round shape, a beautiful deep red color, and a weight ranging from 150 to 300 grams, depending on growing conditions. They possess good density and thick walls, ensuring excellent flavor and versatility. Tomatoes are resistant to cracking, exhibit high storability, and good transportability, making them convenient for storage and transportation.
Hybrid Finalist F1 shows high resistance to a range of diseases and pests, including tomato mosaic virus (ToMV), tomato bronze virus (TSWV), Fusarium (Fol 1-3), Verticillium (Va, Vd), Fusarium root rot (For), and nematodes (Ma, Mi). These traits significantly simplify plant care and increase yield stability. It is recommended to form the plant into 1-2 stems for optimal development and fruiting.
