BREKSTON

Brekston F1 onion is an early hybrid of semi-sharp bulb onion developed by the breeding company Bejo Zaden from the Netherlands. This hybrid is characterized by its rapid maturity, with a vegetative period of approximately 93-97 days from seedling emergence. It forms large round bulbs weighing from 70 to 130 grams with a dense golden or brown skin. The inner skins are juicy, fleshy, and tightly attached to each other, ensuring excellent taste qualities and an attractive appearance that persists for a long time after harvest.

The plant is characterized by high hardiness and the ability to develop in various agro-climatic conditions, including open ground and protected greenhouse conditions. Brekston onion is resistant to flowering, fusarium, and pink rot, and can withstand stressful conditions such as sudden changes in temperature and humidity. The plant's green mass is powerful, with upright tubular leaves covered with a waxy coating, which contributes to good marketability and transportability of the product.

The hybrid does not require additional seed treatment, as the seeds already have a protective layer that accelerates germination and provides protection against pests and diseases. Brekston onion is suitable for growing for fresh market and processing, for example, in salads. It can be grown using the seedling method with the use of trays, which allows obtaining a high-quality early spring harvest. Due to its taste qualities and resistance to unfavorable conditions, this onion is an excellent choice for farmers and vegetable producers.
