Fact sheet

Growth: Medium to strong growth, training as a stick tomato with 1-2 shoots, pinch out, remove leaves from the bottom 40-50cm

Ripeness/Harvest: If strong tomato young plants are planted early in May, the first ripe fruits will appear from mid-July

Fruits: large cherry fruits tend to be short panicles, 30-50% black from the fruit set, then fading dark red, bursting, dark red under the skin, high anthocyanin content

Taste: thin skin, easily edible; very juicy with a mild sweetness at first; then comes the tomato spiciness together with the umami aroma typical of black tomatoes, finally a refreshing acidity, but not as accentuated as with other black tomatoes

Variety description

Open Sky® Happyblack® is the first black and at the same time Phytophthora-resistant outdoor tomato on the market. In terms of fruit size, Happyblack® is a large cherry tomato. The fruit is up to 50% black from the steep base, the lower half towards the base of the blossom remains uncolored. This is also where the challenge lies when harvesting, because the black discoloration shows up early in the development of the fruit. You have to wait with the harvest until the fruit turns red around the base of the flower.
Due to the medium-strong - strong growth character, the variety is very well suited for a 2-shoot training. Due to the two shoots, the growth performance per shoot is reduced and at the same time there are more flower panicles and thus more fruits to harvest.
