Tomato Sapporo is an early-maturing, tall hybrid with a period from germination to fruiting of 95-102 days. The plant is indeterminate, reaching a height of over 200 cm, has closely spaced internodes, and is well-leafed. Due to its high adaptability, the hybrid grows successfully both in plastic greenhouses and in open ground with mandatory support on stakes. The recommended planting scheme is 40x60 cm, which promotes optimal growth and yield.
The fruits of tomato Sapporo have a round shape and an average weight of about 20 grams. At the beginning of ripening, they are uniformly green, and as they mature, they acquire a bright, saturated red color with a shiny skin. The fruits are dense, with a tender sweet flavor and increased sugar content, making them especially attractive to children and adults. The yield forms in long, attractive clusters with numerous fruits of uniform size, which can be harvested whole. After harvest, the fruits retain their flavor and attractive appearance for a long time.
The hybrid exhibits high resistance to major tomato diseases, including tobacco mosaic virus (ToMV), fusarium wilt (Fol), verticillium wilt (Va, Vd), fusarium rot (Ff), as well as nematodes (Ma, Mi, Mj). Thanks to these characteristics and high technological suitability, tomato Sapporo is widely used for fresh consumption, buffet and snack presentation, canning, and preparation of vegetable assortments.
