Expected F1 is a hybrid of late-heading white cabbage developed by the company Bejo in the Netherlands. It is characterized by a long vegetative period reaching 140 days, which ensures late maturation and allows the cabbage to be used for long-term storage. The heads have an oval shape, are compact and dense, and their mass varies from 3 to 4 kg. The internal structure of the cabbage is beautiful and dense, which contributes to maintaining market quality for a long time, up to June without loss of taste and texture.
The Expected F1 hybrid has high resistance to diseases, such as fusarium (Fusarium oxysporum) and thrips, which significantly reduces risks during cultivation. In addition, the cabbage withstands moisture deficit well, making it especially suitable for arid regions. During the short growth period, the plant forms a powerful root system reaching a depth of up to 40 cm, which allows for effective use of soil moisture even under limited irrigation.
Expected F1 cabbage is versatile in application: it is well suited for pickling and long-term storage. The leaves are dense and covered with a durable waxy coating, which additionally protects the heads and contributes to their preservation. The crop is ready for harvesting 140 days after seedling planting, which allows planning the harvest and storage of products with maximum efficiency.
