Blondin

Stable Yields in Any Conditions

The 'Blondin' pepper by Agrofirma Aelita is a strategic choice for growers seeking the perfect balance between early maturity and commercial fruit weight. This hybrid exhibits remarkable plasticity, performing reliably in both plastic greenhouses and open field environments. With a short vegetation period of 55–65 days, it allows for a harvest cycle that concludes before the peak of late-season temperature fluctuations, which is essential for regions with shorter growing seasons.

Agrotechnics and Resistance

A key advantage of this hybrid is its robust resistance to Tobacco Mosaic Virus (TMV). This significantly streamlines field management, reducing the need for intensive fungicidal applications and allowing for denser planting patterns without the threat of widespread crop failure. The plant develops a vigorous, sturdy frame capable of supporting a heavy load of fruit weighing between 160 and 190 grams.

Commercial Value and Logistics

The 'Blondin' fruits are distinguished by their classic blocky shape, distinctly partitioned into four lobes. A wall thickness of 7-8 mm makes these peppers highly desirable for both fresh market sales and food processing. The firm texture ensures that the produce can withstand transport without compromising its aesthetic appeal—a critical factor for wholesale and retail supply chains. The transition from a light yellow technical stage to a vibrant golden-yellow biological maturity is visually striking, all while maintaining the sweet, juicy profile that high-quality peppers require at every stage of development.
