Pepper HEAVYWEIGHT

Consistent Yields in Various Conditions

The «Tyazheloves» (Heavyweight) pepper by Agrofirma Aelita is a strategic choice for growers prioritizing high marketable yield. True to its name, this variety produces impressive fruit weighing between 200–250 grams under proper agricultural management, making it a standout performer for both small-scale farming and commercial operations.

Cultivation Scenarios

The versatility of this variety allows for flexible planning depending on your infrastructure:

• Open field: The variety shows excellent adaptability to temperature fluctuations, which is crucial for areas with unstable weather patterns.
• Greenhouses: In controlled environments, «Tyazheloves» reaches its full genetic potential. With a maturity cycle of 110–120 days, it is easy to schedule staggered harvests for continuous supply.

Fruit Characteristics and Handling

The primary advantage of this pepper lies in its structural integrity. A wall thickness of 8–9 mm is a critical factor for both logistics and processing. These peppers resist physical damage during transit and maintain their shape during extended storage, ensuring a long shelf life for retail display.

In the technical maturity stage, the fruit exhibits a deep dark green color. This allows growers the flexibility to harvest early if market demand for green peppers is high, or to wait for full biological ripening for a sweeter flavor and more intense coloration. The blocky, cuboid shape makes it highly convenient for packaging and standardized shipping.

For growers, «Tyazheloves» acts as a reliable tool. The plant structure is strong enough to bear the weight of heavy fruits, which minimizes post-harvest waste. This is an ideal solution for those who value proven genetics, predictable results, and high commercial standards.
