High fruit quality and transportability, excellent taste
Verlioka F1 — Early maturing, tall, determinate (self-limiting) growth type, reaching up to 2 m (in covered plastic greenhouses, height reaches 1.5–2.2 m). Fruit set for Verlioka F1 hybrid occurs on day 95–105 after emergence. Fruits are round, smooth, uniformly colored, medium weight of 80–100 g. The first flower cluster forms above the 8th–9th leaf, subsequent ones form every 1–2 leaves. Main stem growth of Verlioka F1 hybrid typically ceases after formation of 4–6 flower clusters, and is extended by a sucker formed in the leaf axil below the 3rd or 4th flower cluster. Early hybrid tomato Verlioka F1 is cultivated in winter-spring-summer greenhouses and plastic-covered structures, as well as in open ground via pot-grown seedlings. Planting density (seed sowing) for early tomato Verlioka F1 — 3.0–3.2 plants/m2. Yield reaches up to 18 kg/m2 (average yield per plant in heated plastic greenhouses — 4.5–5.0 kg). Early tomato hybrid Verlioka F1 is characterized by early, uniform, and intensive fruit formation under low light and high humidity conditions, high fruit set percentage. Requires regular watering. Early tomato hybrid Verlioka F1 is resistant to tobacco mosaic virus, brown spot, and fusarium. Early tomato hybrid Verlioka F1 is the most widely used hybrid for non-heated plastic greenhouses. Plants have a weak growth type, which significantly simplifies care. The value of early hybrid Verlioka F1 lies in high yield and fruit quality, early maturing, uniform fruit formation under low light and high humidity, high fruit set percentage. Small fruits of hybrid Verlioka F1 are suitable not only for fresh consumption but also for full-fruit canning in small jars. Disease resistance will allow harvesting maximum yield without additional chemical treatments.
