Cerox F1

Cerox F1 cabbage is a medium-maturing, high-yielding hybrid of white cabbage, selected by the Dutch company Bejo Zaden. This variety features round, dense heads weighing 2.4 to 3 kg, with white color and a salad tint, covered with a dense waxy coating of bluish-green. The plant forms an elevated rosette of leaves, which contributes to resistance against diseases and pests. The vegetative period is approximately 79-80 days after transplanting seedlings, ensuring early and uniform harvest maturity.

Cerox F1 exhibits high resistance to adverse growing conditions, including drought and high temperatures, thanks to its strong root system. The hybrid is low-maintenance and can quickly recover from stress factors. It is resistant to vascular bacteriosis, fusarium wilt, and thrips, significantly reducing the risk of yield loss. The plant tolerates insufficient watering and maintains marketable appearance in the field for 40-50 days, without cracking during ripening and storage.

Cerox F1 cabbage is suitable for cultivation both in open ground using seedlings and in protected conditions. It is intended for fresh consumption and is ideal for pickling and processing into salads. The hybrid has high transportability and can be stored for up to 5 months under proper conditions, making it popular in the fresh produce market and for processing. The recommended planting density is 40-45 thousand plants per hectare, ensuring optimal yield and fruit quality.
