Salima is a cabbage hybrid distinguished by its early to medium-early maturity period, ranging from 55 to 70 days depending on growing conditions. Salima features a compact plant with round, dense, and uniform heads weighing between 1 and 4 kilograms. The leaves are dense with a waxy coating, while the internal structure is crisp and white, making this hybrid particularly attractive for fresh consumption, such as in salads. The cabbage has a soft and delicate taste with a pleasant aroma, highlighting its high internal quality.
The Salima hybrid is well-suited for conveyor cultivation and can be successfully grown both in open fields and under protective materials, including film, agrofabric, or greenhouses. The recommended planting density ranges from 30 to 45 thousand plants per hectare, allowing for optimized yield. The cabbage is resistant to cracking and adverse growing conditions, possesses a powerful root system, and is capable of uniform maturation, which facilitates harvest collection.
Moreover, Salima is noted for its high storability and good transportability, maintaining its market appearance and freshness for up to six weeks after harvest. This makes it a profitable choice for commercial cultivation and market realization of fresh vegetables. Due to its qualities and versatility, the Salima hybrid is an excellent solution for farmers focused on producing high-quality and in-demand cabbage.
