Tomato TI 169

TI 169 — an ultra-early indeterminate tomato hybrid with large, rich yellow-orange fruits, also known as Mamataro Gold. The plant is open, generative, with short internodes and medium growth vigor, ensuring compact clusters with 3-5 fruits. Fruit weight ranges from 180 to 300 grams, flat-round in shape, dense, and possessing exceptional flavor and a pleasant aroma characteristic of Momotaro-type tomatoes. High lycopene content makes these tomatoes especially beneficial and attractive to consumers.

The hybrid exhibits high resistance to a range of diseases, including tobacco mosaic virus (ToMV), blossom end rot, fruit cracking, and tolerance to nematodes and other pathogens. A strong root system promotes good fruit set even at low temperatures, expanding cultivation possibilities. The plant is suitable for cultivation both in open ground and in glasshouses, in short and extended crop rotations during spring and autumn.

To improve transportability, it is recommended to harvest tomatoes at the brown-ripe stage, which preserves their density and flavor during transport and storage. TI 169 is an excellent choice for those who value early harvest, high fruit quality, and plant resistance to adverse conditions and diseases.
