Description STARBURST
Starburst watermelon is a mid-season hybrid with oval fruits of medium size, weighing between 8 and 16 kg. The fruit skin is of medium thickness, dense, dark green with wide light green stripes, giving them an attractive appearance. The flesh is a rich dark red color, dense, crispy, and very sweet, making this variety especially tasty and in demand.

The plant is characterized by strong and vigorous growth with a well-developed root system and a well-developed foliage, which ensures reliable protection of fruits from sunburn. Starburst is adapted for cultivation in open ground and is recommended to be planted at a density of 8,000 to 12,000 plants per hectare. The hybrid has resistance to anthracnose, which increases its reliability and reduces the risk of crop loss.

The maturation period is about 70-80 days, which allows for a harvest in the mid-season. Thanks to its characteristics, the Starburst watermelon is suitable for cultivation in various climatic conditions, preferring well-lit areas and requiring proper care. This variety differs in a long storage period, which makes it convenient for transportation and marketing.
