Stability and Control: Growing the Pulsion Tomato

For professional greenhouse operations, selecting an indeterminate hybrid is always an equation with many variables. When working with the Pulsion cherry tomato from Nunhems, we achieve a predictable result that minimizes risks in the mid-to-late season. Dutch breeding truly shines here: the plant requires disciplined care, but rewards it with high commercial yield.

Agrotechnics and Protection

The main challenge with long-cycle varieties (over 150 days to maturity) is maintaining vegetative health until the final harvest. Pulsion features a robust genetic shield. In our conditions, it effectively resists the primary threats to protected cultivation:

• Verticillium and Fusarium wilt — pathogens that often wipe out entire rows are effectively neutralized.
• Tobacco Mosaic Virus and other viral mosaic diseases — the hybrid shows high tolerance, which is critical in industrial settings where the risk of infection spread via tools or pests is significant.

The indeterminate nature requires precise pruning. The plant is vigorous, so preventing canopy density is essential. We recommend consistent suckering; Pulsion responds well to management, delivering uniform, plum-shaped fruit weighing up to 20 grams.

Business Advantages

The fruit features a firm structure and a two-chamber architecture, making it ideal for logistics. Unlike soft varieties that bruise under minimal pressure, this tomato retains its market quality even after long-distance transportation. The color is a vibrant, intense red, and the flavor profile meets the standards of the premium cherry segment. The internal two-chamber structure ensures excellent shelf life and prevents hollow centers. For the operator, this means less waste during packaging and reliable shipments to retail chains without quality complaints.
