Tomato Sanpavel

Technological Profile of the Sanpavel F1 Hybrid

Sanpavel F1 is an indeterminate tomato variety from Rijk Zwaan breeders, officially registered in Ukraine in 2026. The hybrid's genetic potential is focused on producing large, round fruits with a minimal scar and no green shoulder, which significantly increases the marketable yield.

Agronomic Recommendations

• Cultivation: The hybrid requires single-stem training with mandatory sucker removal. The medium length of internodes between the 1st and 4th inflorescences ensures ease of trellising and maintenance.
• Soil and Nutrition: The plant prefers fertile, well-drained substrates. Given the thin pericarp and 2-3 seed chambers, it is crucial to maintain stable potassium levels during the fruit-filling phase to prevent cracking.
• Irrigation: Drip irrigation is recommended, maintaining soil moisture at 70-80% of field capacity. Avoid sharp fluctuations in humidity, as this negatively affects the development of fruits with moderate ribbing.
• Planting Density: The optimal density is 2.5–3 plants per square meter. The semi-erect leaf position promotes good canopy ventilation, reducing the risk of fungal diseases.

Due to the absence of first-truss fasciation and stable fruit set, Sanpavel demonstrates high uniformity in fruit size. When working with this hybrid, special attention should be paid to pest control during the flowering period, as the lack of stigma pubescence makes the flower sensitive to external environmental factors.
