The Lyudmila pepper variety is a medium-early sweet type with high yield and uniform fruit ripening. Fruits reach technical maturity around day 110-120 and biological maturity around day 130-140 after germination. Plants of this variety are about 50-70 cm tall and form well-branched, asymmetric bushes. The fruits are conical in shape with rounded tips, weighing 120-150 grams, measuring 8-10 cm in length and about 5 cm in diameter. They feature a rich cherry-red color, thin, smooth, glossy skin, and wall thickness ranging from 7 to 10 mm, ensuring their firmness and juiciness.
This pepper variety is resistant to adverse weather conditions, has good storability and transportability, making it convenient for cultivation and marketing. Lyudmila pepper is low-maintenance, prefers sunny, wind-protected areas, and requires transplanting with seedlings aged 25-45 days. It is recommended to plant densely at a rate of 65-70 thousand plants per hectare. The crop is heat- and moisture-loving, so these factors should be considered when setting up growing conditions.
The fruits of this variety have a very sweet taste with a refined pepper aroma, making them versatile in cooking. They can be used fresh, in salads, vegetable assortments, appetizers, pickling, stuffing, and canning. Thanks to their excellent taste and attractive appearance, Lyudmila pepper is an excellent choice for both home and commercial cultivation.
