Antratsit F1

Eggplant Anthracite F1 is a high-yielding early-maturing hybrid that begins to ripen as early as 50-60 days after transplanting seedlings. The plant features strong growth with a robust root system and extensive leaf coverage, effectively shielding the fruit. Medium-height, branched, and lightly hairy bushes ensure good adaptability to various cultivation conditions and resistance to diseases such as fusarium and verticillium. The hybrid exhibits high plasticity and low maintenance requirements, making it a reliable choice for greenhouses and open ground. Eggplant Anthracite F1 fruits are elongated, measuring 19-22 cm in length and 7-8 cm in diameter, weighing 250–300 grams. The skin is a rich dark-purple, glossy, and uniform, while the flesh is white, dense, and free of bitterness, ensuring excellent taste. Thanks to its high marketability and extended storage life, the fruits retain their attractive appearance and quality for a long time after harvest. To achieve maximum yield, proper cultivation techniques must be followed, including correct seedling transplanting, which should occur 50-55 days before planting in the soil. The plant dislikes root damage, so transplanting should be done carefully. The optimal planting density is approximately 40,000 plants per hectare. To protect against pests such as spider mites and Colorado potato beetles, as well as root rot and other diseases, insecticides and fungicides are recommended. With proper care, the hybrid Anthracite F1 can yield high harvests of 45–55 tons per hectare.
