Capitol hybrid cabbage is a versatile variety intended for fresh consumption and processing. This hybrid features large, round, green heads well-protected against external damage. Fruit weight varies from 1.1 to 2 kg depending on growing conditions and maturity period. The inner core of the cabbage is short, facilitating handling and reducing processing waste.
The maturity period of the Capitol hybrid ranges from 42 to 69 days, allowing its use for both ultra-early and late harvests, especially optimal for the autumn season. The hybrid is resistant to several diseases, including alternaria and bacterial rot, and tolerates adverse growing conditions. Due to its stress resistance and high adaptability, Capitol can be grown both in open fields and under cover.
One notable feature of the hybrid is the possibility of denser planting using a 30 x 20 cm scheme, enabling efficient land use and high-quality yields. Capitol cabbage boasts a long storage life and good transportability while maintaining its market appearance and excellent taste. These characteristics make the hybrid attractive for commercial cultivation and distribution.
