Tomato Labado is a medium-maturing, high-yielding determinate hybrid that ripens 110-120 days after emergence. This variety is suitable for cultivation in both plastic greenhouses and open ground on stakes, allowing for early harvests. The plant is large, with an intensely developed leaf canopy, reaching about 80 cm in height, and exhibits high resistance to major tomato diseases and heat conditions.
The fruits of tomato Labado have a round shape, dense structure, and bright red or crimson color without green spots. The average weight of one tomato is 180-200 grams, with dry matter content reaching 5%. The tomatoes possess excellent flavor qualities, suitable for fresh consumption in salads, thermal processing, or preservation. The fruits do not crack, ensuring high marketability and good transportability, which is especially important for wholesale sales.
For successful cultivation, it is recommended to plant tomato Labado in light loamy or clayey, well-drained, and warm soils. The optimal planting density is about 25,000 plants per hectare. Suitable preceding crops include onion, legumes, cabbage, cereals, cucumbers, and carrots; however, replanting on the same site should be avoided for at least 3-4 years and not after solanaceous crops. The tomato seeds undergo coating, enhancing their resistance to diseases and pests, ensuring reliable growth and high yield.
