Seeds of the early high-yielding sugar pea variety Caesar are intended for cultivation both in open ground and in greenhouses. The plants reach a medium height of about 70 cm and have pods about 10 cm long, each containing 8-9 light green peas. The vegetative period is 45-60 days, which allows obtaining a crop in a short time. The recommended sowing depth of seeds is 3-5 cm, with a row spacing of 25-30 cm and a distance between plants of 3 cm, which provides optimal conditions for the growth and development of the culture.
The Caesar variety is distinguished by a high content of sugar and protein in the beans, which makes it especially valuable for the food industry and home consumption. The pea flesh is juicy and slightly sweet, which improves the taste of the product. The plant is resistant to fusarium and other diseases, and also requires moderate watering and prefers moderately moist soil. The leaves have a silvery-green hue, and the pods are a rich green color, indicating the good condition of the plants and their health.
Sugar pea Caesar is widely used for the fresh market, canning, and freezing, which makes it a versatile variety for various purposes. The sowing rate is 2-3 kg per cent, and the yield can reach 40-70 kg per cent. For successful cultivation, it is recommended to avoid fresh organic fertilizers and ensure a sufficient amount of light and moisture. The flowering period falls in June-July, which allows planning the crop harvest in optimal terms.
