Tiv Tam F1 watermelon is an early, high-yielding hybrid that matures 60-65 days after transplanting seedlings into the ground. The plants are characterized by vigorous growth with sturdy vines, dense foliage, and a well-developed root system, which ensures the active formation of large oval fruits weighing from 8 to 13 kg. The berries have an attractive appearance with wide light stripes alternating with thin dark lines, and their surface has a glossy sheen. The watermelon flesh is bright red, crispy, with small seeds, and is distinguished by a sweet taste and rich texture. The Tiv Tam hybrid is characterized by high stress resistance and resistance to diseases such as fusarium and anthracnose, which makes it undemanding regarding growing conditions. It is suitable for cultivation both in open ground and with the use of temporary film coverings, which allows for obtaining an early harvest. From one bush, you can collect from one to two full-fledged fruits with high commercial qualities. The optimal planting density is 7-9 thousand plants per hectare. Tiv Tam watermelons retain their taste properties and commercial appearance for a long time, which ensures their suitability for transportation over long distances and sale on the fresh market. Thanks to the uniformity of fruits in shape and mass, as well as the stable quality of the flesh, this hybrid is an excellent choice for farmers focused on obtaining early and high-quality products.
