The 'Sibirsky Lekary' onion is a medium-maturing winter variety known for its high frost resistance and regenerative ability. The maturation period is about 250-260 days, allowing for harvest in May-June. The plant forms dark green, erect leaves with a waxy coating and a powerful root system, ensuring stable development even under unfavorable conditions. The variety does not bolt and is resistant to Fusarium rot, which significantly eases care and increases yield reliability.
The bulbs of the 'Sibirsky Lekary' variety are large, round or elliptical in shape, weighing about 140 grams. The upper dry scales have an attractive golden-lilac hue with a golden luster, while the flesh is snow-white, fleshy, juicy, and tender, without bitterness. Dry matter content reaches 8.8%, which contributes to good storability and the possibility of long-term storage. Thanks to the high density of bulbs and the restraint of the upper scales, the variety is ideal for mechanical harvesting and marketing in the fresh market.
A feature of the variety is its universal application and high nutritional value. The onion has a sharp taste and contains a significant amount of vitamin C, anthocyanins, and essential oils, making it a real remedy for colds. The variety is plastic to agrotechnics, unpretentious in care, and suitable for growing from seeds in open ground as well as by the seedling method, making it accessible to novice farmers and gardeners.
