FAESTAR

Sweet corn hybrid of the type SH2 (super-sweet), early-maturing, developed by Syngenta Seeds from the Netherlands. The vegetative period is approximately 78-80 days, allowing it to be grown in open ground during the main summer season. Direct sowing is recommended in warmed soil or in seedling trays. The plant reaches a height of up to 2.3 meters, indicating its strength and resilience.

The ear of FIRESTAR F1 sweet corn has a cylindrical, elongated shape, about 26 cm long and 5 cm in diameter. It contains 16-17 rows of intensely yellow kernels, each kernel approximately 12-13 mm in height. The kernels are dense, juicy, and tender, with high sugar content, which gives the corn a rich flavor and high marketability. Thanks to these qualities, the hybrid is well-suited for fresh market sales as well as for processing and freezing for later culinary use.

The FIRESTAR F1 hybrid exhibits high resistance to several diseases, including rusts Rp1-d Rp1-I and virus-induced stunting, as well as to high temperatures and drought. This makes it a reliable choice for cultivation in various climatic conditions. Seeds are supplied in packages of 100,000 units, convenient for large-scale agricultural production. High sugar and nutrient content, along with excellent taste qualities, make FIRESTAR F1 a competitive and sought-after sweet corn variety.
