Pepper RED KING

Stability and predictability in every bush

For a grower working in open fields or glass greenhouses, the 'Chervonny Korol' variety from VNIISSOK and Gavrish is a reliable asset for securing a consistent harvest. This is not the type of hybrid that requires advanced agronomic skills; it is predictable in care, resistant to common crop diseases, and possesses excellent adaptability to temperature fluctuations.

Operational characteristics

• Weight and calibration: The pepper produces fruits weighing from 100-120g up to 250g. A high percentage of marketable produce simplifies sorting and packaging processes.
• Harvesting technology: The transition from yellow-white to a rich red biological maturity phase is uniform. This provides logistics flexibility, allowing for harvest at various stages to suit different market requirements.
• Fruit structure: Walls with a thickness of 5-6 mm provide a balance between juiciness and shelf life. The fruit shape varies from conical to cuboid, making it versatile for both processing and the fresh produce market.

Managing 'Chervonny Korol' plantings comes down to standard operations: pruning and timely irrigation. Thanks to its robust immunity, the variety is less demanding of intensive chemical treatments, which reduces production costs and the consumption of crop protection agents. The optimal wall thickness makes this pepper an excellent candidate for transport—it maintains its shape and does not deform when stacked in crates, which is critical for wholesale operations.
