Pepper Shakira

Shakira F1 Hot Pepper — an ultra-early and high-yielding hybrid developed by the seed company Enza Zaden from the Netherlands. The plant is medium-height, compact, and moderately leafy, evenly loaded with a large number of fruits. This hybrid is characterized by high drought resistance and sun-loving nature, allowing successful cultivation both in open ground and in protected environments, including plastic greenhouses. Shakira responds well to proper agronomy, ensuring a stable and high-quality harvest.

The peppers have an elongated-conical shape, approximately 3-4 cm in diameter and 16-18 cm in length. In technical maturity, they are dark green, and in biological maturity — deep red. The fruits are attractive in appearance, uniform in quality, and possess a traditional spicy flavor, making them popular for various culinary uses. The ripening period is 55-60 days from transplanting seedlings, enabling an early harvest.

The Shakira hybrid exhibits high resistance to viral diseases of solanaceous crops, particularly Tobacco Mosaic Virus (strains 0-2). This trait significantly reduces the risk of yield losses and increases the reliability of crop cultivation. Thanks to its early fruiting, high yield, and disease resistance, Shakira F1 is an excellent choice for farmers and gardeners aiming to obtain high-quality spicy peppers under various climatic conditions.
