The kernels have a toothed shape and open like a "butterfly," making this hybrid particularly suitable for popcorn preparation. Corn is rich in B vitamins, especially B1 and B2, enhancing its nutritional value.
The hybrid is adapted to various soil types and climatic conditions, showing high resistance to drought and diseases, as well as resistance to lodging. Recommended planting density varies depending on growing conditions: from 45,000 to 70,000 plants per hectare, ensuring optimal development and maximum yield. Ear attachment height is about 80-90 cm, and ear shape is slightly conical with a length of 22-24 cm and diameter of 4-4.5 cm.
F 618 is a versatile hybrid suitable for cultivation in various regions due to its stability and adaptability. It is recommended for spring sowing and offers a high yield potential up to 14 tons per hectare.
