Broccoli Ironman F1 — a late-maturing hybrid from the Dutch selection company Seminis, intended for early spring cultivation. The maturation period is up to 80 days, depending on seasonal conditions. This hybrid is distinguished by high resistance to flower drop and hollow stem, as well as good resistance to wet rot, which contributes to obtaining a high-quality harvest.
The heads of Ironman F1 broccoli are dense, have a bluish-green hue, and feature a high-positioned "dome". Fruit mass ranges from 1.8 to 2 kg. Due to its structure and taste qualities, this hybrid is prized for its juiciness and crisp texture, making it popular both for fresh consumption and processing.
The hybrid demonstrates high yield — up to 4 kg per square meter under medium maturation periods. It retains well in the field and withstands transportation well, ensuring the preservation of its market appearance and quality upon delivery. These characteristics make Ironman F1 an advantageous choice for farmers focused on consistent, high-quality broccoli harvests.
