Atlet

Reliable harvest in any conditions: "Atlet" pepper

The "Atlet" pepper variety, developed by Agrofirma Poisk, has firmly established itself in the market as a robust mid-early hybrid designed for both home gardeners and commercial farmers. Created in collaboration with leading vegetable breeding research centers, this pepper demonstrates excellent adaptability to both open-field conditions and greenhouses.

The hallmark of "Atlet" is its strong resistance to complex diseases that often cause yield loss, including verticillium wilt and a range of viral mosaics, such as tobacco mosaic virus. This inherent "shield" allows the plant to focus its energy on fruit development rather than battling pathogens.

Fruit characteristics and cultivation

The growing period from emergence to technical maturity lasts 65–75 days. At this stage, the fruits exhibit a light yellow or dark green color, making them an excellent choice for processing and canning. Upon reaching biological maturity, the pepper turns a vibrant, deep red, making it ideal for fresh consumption.

• Shape: classic conical, 3-4 lobed.
• Weight: ranges from 100 to 190 grams, ensuring excellent marketability and convenient sizing.
• Usage: a versatile sweet pepper suitable for a wide range of culinary applications.

Thanks to the rigorous selection work conducted by the Federal Scientific Center for Vegetable Production, "Atlet" perfectly balances stress tolerance with consistent yields. It is the go-to solution for growers seeking a balance between low-maintenance requirements and high-quality produce.
