Kapello

Sweet pepper Kapello F1 is an early hybrid developed by the French seed company Clause. This variety is versatile and successfully adapts to cultivation both in open ground, greenhouses, or under temporary film coverings. The plant is determinate, compact, of medium growth, reaching a height of 50-60 cm, and simultaneously forms about 10 fruits, of which approximately 6 ripen simultaneously. Kapello has a well-developed root system, which contributes to its resilience and productivity.

The fruits of this pepper have a Hungarian-type conical shape, reaching a length of 12-13 cm and a diameter of about 5.5 cm, with a weight of 70-90 g. The fruit walls are of medium thickness, providing a pleasant texture and good taste. In technical maturity, the fruits are dark green, and in biological maturity, they are a vibrant red, making them attractive for fresh market sales and home cooking. Kapello is resistant to tobacco mosaic virus, enhancing its reliability during cultivation.

This variety is especially valued for its early maturity — the ripening period is approximately 60-65 days after transplanting seedlings to the permanent location. Kapello has been tested in various regions of Ukraine, including Zakarpattia and Kherson Oblast, where it received high ratings. It is ideal for spring-summer cultivation and guarantees a stable high yield due to the quality of fruits and their commercial characteristics, which remain intact during transportation and storage.
