Expect

The Expect cabbage variety is a late-maturing hybrid of white cabbage, intended for long-term storage and cultivation under various agroclimatic conditions. The maturation period is approximately 140 days, after which the harvest can remain on the plant for several additional weeks without losing its market quality. The heads are round in shape, compact, and highly dense, with a weight ranging from 2 to 4 kg, ensuring high crop productivity.

This hybrid exhibits high resistance to adverse environmental conditions, including cold periods, sharp temperature fluctuations, and water deficiency, thanks to its robust root system. The Expect cabbage is resistant to Fusarium oxysporum, significantly enhancing its reliability when grown in regions with limited water supply. The plant can be successfully cultivated both in open ground and in covered beds or greenhouses, expanding its application potential.

Special attention should be paid to pest protection during the cultivation of Expect cabbage, such as caterpillars, aphids, and leaf beetles, as this variety is more susceptible to their damage compared to others. The hybrid’s seeds exhibit high quality and germination rate of at least 97%, ensuring the development of strong and rapidly growing seedlings. Due to its low maintenance requirements and suitability for mechanized sowing and harvesting, the Expect cabbage is becoming increasingly popular among growers.
