Watermelon MIRSINI

Watermelon MIRSINI F1 is a mid-early hybrid developed by the Dutch company Syngenta Seeds. The maturity period is approximately 63-64 days from transplanting seedlings, allowing for a relatively quick harvest. The plant is of medium size, strong and robust, with abundant foliage and long vines that effectively protect the fruits from sunburn. The hybrid exhibits high resistance to major diseases such as Fusarium wilt and anthracnose, ensuring stable yields and reducing cultivation risks.

The fruits of watermelon MIRSINI have an oval-round shape and weigh on average 8 to 11 kg, depending on agronomic conditions. The rind is dense and of medium thickness, with a vibrant green background and dark green wide stripes, ensuring high transportability and long-term storage without quality loss. The flesh is a rich ruby or dark-red color, dense, very sweet, and juicy, with a sugar content of about 11-12%. The seeds are small and black, and their quantity in the fruits is relatively low, enhancing the fruit's appeal to consumers.

The MIRSINI F1 hybrid is well-suited for cultivation in various climatic conditions, including regions with short summers, where trellising can be used to increase yield without compromising fruit quality. The watermelon is intended for fresh market sales, export, and processing. Due to its high storability, disease resistance, and ability to remain on the vine for a long time without overripening, this hybrid is an optimal choice for commercial cultivation and long-distance transportation.
