Wild cabbage Batavia F1

Batavia F1 broccoli cabbage — a high-yielding early hybrid developed by the Dutch company Bejo Zaden. The vegetative period is approximately 65 days from transplanting seedlings into open or protected ground, allowing for spring and autumn harvests. Plants exhibit strong growth and form large, dense, round, dark-green heads weighing from 1.0 to 1.5 kg. Inflorescences are finely divided and easily separable, facilitating handling and use.

The Batavia F1 hybrid has high resistance to Fusarium wilt and tolerates hot climatic conditions, making it suitable for various regions and seasons. The cabbage is suitable for cultivation both in open ground and under cover, demonstrating high adaptability to growing conditions. Additionally, the plant can produce prolonged fruiting on lateral shoots with yields up to 200 g, increasing overall yield.

Sowing seeds for seedlings is recommended 30 days before transplanting into the soil, ideally from March 15 to April 15. Direct sowing into open ground is also possible, starting after April 20. Batavia F1 cabbage has an attractive market appearance, excellent taste qualities, and is suitable for fresh consumption, freezing, processing, and short-term storage. It tolerates transportation well, making it popular in the fresh vegetable market.
