EXTRA EARLY GOLD F1 Hybrid from the American company United Genetics Seeds, very productive and promising hybrid. It is characterized by cold resistance, strong and intensive growth under changing photoperiod conditions. As a result, early in spring it quickly forms a bulb, which grows to marketable size. The hybrid produces uniformly round bulbs with golden-brown scales, juicy snow-white flesh, and a delicate flavor. The outer scales are easily removed, resulting in attractive bunch products. Due to the rapid bulb formation and dark green leaf color, this crop is considered a profitable product for green onion production. By May-June, bulbs weighing 140-160 g and more, covered with two layers of dry scales, are already formed. Dry matter content — 10%. Yield of onions, depending on growing conditions, ranges from 30 to 85 tons per hectare, at a sowing rate of 1 million seeds / ha. During vegetation, pay attention to protecting the crop from pests (onion fly, etc.). In autumn, protection against powdery mildew is required; early spring, at the beginning of vegetation, apply nitrogen and potassium in easily accessible forms.
As a winter hybrid, this onion is well stored (90 days). Resistant to pink rot.
