FLORENTINA

Florentina pepper is an early-maturing hybrid that reaches technical maturity 90-95 days after germination. The plant is robust, well-leafed, with a well-developed root system, ensuring its resilience and high productivity. The fruits of this hybrid are one-dimensional, about 12 cm long and up to 2 cm in diameter, smooth and highly glossy. In technical maturity, they are dark green, and in biological maturity — vivid red. Most fruits are two-chambered, which is a characteristic feature of this variety.

The Florentina hybrid is distinguished by uniform ripening and heat tolerance, allowing it to be grown under various climatic conditions. The fruits have a spicy flavor, making them popular for fresh consumption, as well as for canning and spice production. High marketability and good transportability make this variety attractive for commercial cultivation. The hybrid is resistant to tobacco mosaic virus, significantly reducing the risk of crop losses.

For successful cultivation, it is recommended to sow only germinated seeds at a temperature of 25-28°C, at which they germinate on the 10-15th day. The optimal planting density is 3-4 plants per square meter. Yield in open ground reaches about 4 kg per square meter, and in protected ground — at least 6 kg per square meter, indicating the high productivity of this hybrid.
