Peridot F1 is a spinach hybrid developed by the Japanese company Sakata, intended for professional cultivation throughout the entire season, from early spring to late autumn. The plant has a vertical habit, which facilitates both mechanized and manual harvest. Its moderate growth rate makes it optimal for spring-autumn cultivation cycles. Peridot F1 is suitable for various purposes: growing for bunches, processing, and obtaining "Baby leaf" format leaves.
Spinach leaves have a dark green, rich color, smooth surface, and round shape, giving them an attractive appearance. Uniform leaf size and shape ensure ease of packaging and product sales. The medium-late maturity allows the hybrid to be grown both in open ground and under cover, expanding its application possibilities.
The hybrid is fully resistant to downy mildew (a disease caused by fungal pathogens), significantly enhancing cultivation reliability and reducing the risk of crop losses. Its high commercial quality and versatility make Peridot F1 a profitable choice for professional growers aiming to obtain high-quality and stable spinach yields.
