Alcala

Alcala F1 cabbage is a mid-season hybrid of Dutch selection from the well-known brand Bejo Zaden. This variety is characterized by high stress resistance and adaptability to various growing conditions, allowing successful cultivation during both spring-summer and autumn periods. The plant forms a flat, upright rosette of gray-green leaves with a waxy coating, possessing a strong leafy canopy and resistance to common diseases when crop rotation is observed. The hybrid demonstrates heat tolerance and maintains productivity even under high solar activity and extreme conditions such as water deficiency. Alcala cabbage heads are round, white, dense, and neat, weighing from 0.8 to 1.5 kg. They feature a moderately pronounced flavor without bitterness and retain structure and nutritional value after thermal processing. The variety is known for uniform maturation and stable high yield, making it attractive for cultivation both in open and protected soil. The vegetative period lasts approximately 130 days from sowing or 70-75 days from transplanting seedlings. Alcala cabbage is versatile in application: suitable for fresh market sales, home cooking, as well as processing, freezing, and canning. Thanks to its high transportability and long storage life without loss of appearance, this hybrid is an excellent choice for commercial cultivation and sales. Its excellent taste qualities and stress resistance make Alcala a reliable and profitable option for farmers and gardeners.
