MILA pepper is a fast-maturing hybrid designed for early harvest in open ground. The plant is compact and does not require pruning, simplifying care. Fruits have a cube-like shape with a smooth, glossy surface. In technical ripeness, they are light green, and in biological ripeness, they turn into a rich red hue. The weight of one fruit is 180-200 grams, with a thick wall reaching 7-8 mm, ensuring juicy and fleshy fruits. Marketable yield reaches 7.5 kg per square meter. The pepper is distinguished by high levels of ascorbic acid and sugars, making it especially nutritious and flavorful. The flesh is incredibly sweet with a pronounced spicy aroma, and the skin is tender, enhancing its appeal for fresh consumption and processing.
The MILA hybrid exhibits high resistance to major diseases, including Tobacco Mosaic Virus (TMV), Cucumber Mosaic Virus (CMV), and Tomato Bronzing Virus, contributing to a stable and high-quality harvest. Thanks to its market qualities and disease resistance, this pepper is an excellent choice for both hobby and commercial cultivation.
For successful cultivation of MILA pepper, it is essential to ensure regular watering and select the appropriate fertilization program. Root feeding begins immediately after transplanting seedlings, increasing fertilizer doses as fruits form. It is recommended to conduct an agrochemical soil analysis for accurate calculation of fertilizer doses, taking into account soil type and climatic conditions. Different fertilizer formulations with varying macronutrient ratios are applied during different growth stages: phosphorus for seedling adaptation, nitrogen for improved flowering, and potassium for fruit growth. Foliar feeding enhances nutrient uptake and compensates for microelement deficiencies during critical growth phases, promoting higher yield and fruit quality.
