Wild cabbage Bulat F1

Reliability and shelf life: Why Bulat F1 is a professional choice

For a farmer planning to sell cabbage during the winter-spring season, the key criteria are not just yield, but the ability to maintain marketability after long-term storage. The Bulat F1 hybrid from the Gavrish company is a specialized solution for those focused on late-season produce.

With a maturity period of 145–155 days, this hybrid requires patience but provides a harvest that reliably keeps until spring. Bulat's primary competitive advantage is its resistance to fusarium wilt. In intensive vegetable farming, where soil is often exhausted by crop rotation, this trait minimizes the risk of losing a significant portion of the harvest directly in the field.

Agrotechnics and Target Metrics

An average head weight of 2.5–3.5 kg is the “gold standard” for retail and supermarkets: this weight is convenient for logistics and final consumer purchasing. The rounded shape and dense leaf structure ensure that the cabbage remains intact during transportation.

• Planting density: 28,000–35,000 plants per hectare. Adhering to these parameters is critical: overcrowding reduces airflow and may trigger diseases, while sparse planting leads to excessive head growth, reducing overall marketability.
• Storage: An ideal choice for farms equipped with modern temperature-controlled vegetable storage facilities.

It is worth noting that unlike many early or mid-late varieties, Bulat F1 requires a full cycle of mineral nutrition. Its potential is only unlocked when maintaining the high agrotechnical standards required for late-maturing crops. This is not a “lazy variety,” but a professional tool for securing predictable profits in the late-season market.
