Kristine onion is a medium-late, semi-sharp hybrid with a vegetation period of 130-140 days. The bulbs of this variety are round, large, weighing 180-220 grams, with dense, golden-bronze outer scales. Due to its dense structure and strong scales, the onion keeps well and has high transportability.
Kristine stands out for its high flavor qualities: the bulbs have a sharp taste and a strong aroma, making them versatile for various culinary purposes. This variety is suitable both for fresh consumption and processing, expanding its application in home kitchens.
Moreover, Kristine onion is intended for long-term storage — up to 6-7 months, allowing it to retain freshness and beneficial properties throughout this period. Sowing is recommended in March-April with row spacing of 35 cm, and thinning within rows to 5 cm promotes the formation of large, high-quality bulbs. Harvesting usually occurs in September-October.
