Cabbage variety Bartolo F1 is a late-maturing hybrid with a maturation period of 140 to 160 days from the emergence of mass seedlings to technical maturity. This variety is characterized by high productivity and forms dense, round heads weighing from 2.5 to 4.5 kg, sometimes reaching 5-7 kg. The plant's leaf rosette is raised, with large, blistered, gray-green leaves covered with a dense waxy coating and serrated edges, which gives the plant resistance and an attractive appearance.
The heads of Bartolo F1 cabbage are juicy and dense, with a yellowish color when cut. The inner core is long, and the outer core is of medium length. The yield of marketable product reaches 93%, indicating high quality and suitability for sale. The taste qualities of the cabbage are excellent, making it versatile for various uses.
A distinctive feature of this variety is its high resistance to long-term storage. Cabbage is recommended to be harvested after the first frost, although harvesting before frost contributes to even better preservation of the harvest. The variety is ideal for pickling and long-term storage, as the heads retain juiciness and freshness until June, making it an ideal choice for winter and spring consumption.
