Hybrid 145 F1
In the San Joaquin Valley, it has been
successful on the ground about 7-10 days later than Shady Lady
producing a higher percentage of 4x4 & 4x5 tomatoes than Shady Lady.
It is important to note that it has a longer shelf life at 6 color
than Shady Lady does at 2 color allowing a larger percentage of the
fruit to be harvested in a 30-40% color single pick. The extended
shelf life works in the field for the grower as well as in transit
for the buyers.
