Description in Russian

• "Скороспелый (100—105 дней) низкорослый сорт, предназначенный для выращивания в открытом грунте или пленочных тоннелях. Отличительная особенность — стопроцентная завязываемость плодов в неблагоприятных условиях (резких перепадах дневных и ночных температур и высокой влажности). Плоды массой 80—90 г, преимущественно салатного назначения. Густота посадки 3,0—3,5 раст./м2. Урожайность 3 кг/раст."
