GX 2042 F1

GX 2042 F1 — a mid-late maturing hybrid of sweet corn, intended for cultivation in open ground and fresh markets. The vegetative period is approximately 80-81 days, allowing harvest at optimal times. The plant reaches a height of about 2.1-2.5 meters, ensuring the formation of large and high-quality ears.

The ears of this hybrid have a cylindrical shape, length up to 21 cm, and diameter up to 5.4 cm, with 18-20 rows of golden-yellow kernels. The kernels are closely packed, have a medium depth of 12-13 mm, and high sugar content, providing excellent taste and juiciness. Due to these characteristics, the GX 2042 F1 hybrid is an attractive choice for gardeners and farmers who value large and sweet ears.

One of the key advantages of this hybrid is its high resistance to major corn diseases, such as rust, bacterial blight, helminthosporiosis, and mosaic dwarf virus. This significantly simplifies plant care and contributes to a stable and high-quality yield. The heat units required for maturation amount to approximately 840 (base temperature 10°C), making the hybrid adaptable to various climatic conditions.
