The Scyth watermelon is an early hybrid with a maturation period from 55 to 65 days when sown directly into open ground, and from 40 to 45 days when grown via seedling method under coverings. The plant is powerful, with high vigor and well-developed foliage, which contributes to the formation of 4-5 fruits, uniform in shape and size. The fruits have an oval-round shape, a smooth surface with a glossy sheen, and a dark-green color with even light stripes. The average fruit weight ranges from 10 to 16 kg; they are noted for their storability and good transportability, allowing consumer qualities to be preserved for a long time.
The watermelon flesh is a rich bright-red color, granular and sweet, possessing an excellent texture and rich flavor. This hybrid is recommended for growing early and super-early produce both in open ground and under temporary film coverings. Due to its characteristics, the Scyth watermelon is suitable for obtaining high-quality harvests in short periods.
Additionally, the Scyth watermelon possesses resistance to major diseases, such as fusarium wilt and anthracnose, which significantly reduces risks during cultivation and increases harvest reliability. Beyond its taste qualities, the watermelon is a beneficial product that aids in improving heart function and lowering cholesterol levels, thereby reducing the risk of cardiovascular diseases.
