F 10 SMS is an early-maturing hybrid of sweet corn, distinguished by high yield and excellent taste qualities. The maturation period ranges from 70 to 85 days, depending on growing conditions, allowing harvest as early as mid-summer. Plants reach heights of 150 to 220 cm, forming large, uniform ears 15 to 22 cm long with kernels of yellow and white color, possessing high sugar content (over 12%) and minimal starch. This corn has an attractive appearance and excellent texture, making it popular both for fresh consumption and culinary processing.
The F 10 SMS hybrid is resistant to a broad spectrum of diseases, including bacterial blight, anthracnose, and rust, ensuring stable yields and reducing the need for intensive plant protection. The crop is heat-loving and does not tolerate frost, so it is recommended to sow in multiple batches with a two-week interval to extend the harvest period. Sowing is done at a depth of 3-5 cm with a density of 2-3 seeds spaced 30-40 cm apart in rows.
F 10 SMS corn is versatile in use: it can be eaten fresh, boiled, grilled, frozen, or canned. The kernels contain a complex of beneficial substances, including vitamins A, C, B-group, fiber, fatty and essential oils, minerals, and microelements. Despite its high caloric content, corn is considered a dietary product, appreciated by both adults and children for its sweet and tender flavor.
