Leopard

Early-maturing hybrid cabbage Leopard F1 — a Japanese variety produced by Sakata Company, intended for cultivation in open ground. The vegetation period is approximately 75-80 days from transplanting seedlings to harvest. The heads are compact, round, with a white inner part and a light green outer hue. Average head weight ranges from 2.0 to 2.5 kg, sometimes reaching up to 4 kg, making this hybrid suitable for various uses.

Leopard F1 exhibits high resistance to Fusarium wilt and tolerance to black rot, significantly enhancing its reliability when grown under different climatic conditions. The hybrid adapts well to diverse environments, possesses excellent storability, and can remain in the field up to 90 days without cracking, even under excessive moisture. These qualities ensure good transportability and allow the cabbage to be used for both fresh market and processing purposes.

Recommended planting density is 33-40 thousand plants per hectare, optimal for achieving high yields. Leopard F1 is suitable for spring, summer-autumn, and all-season cultivation, making it a versatile choice for farmers and gardeners aiming to obtain high-quality, stable white cabbage yields.
