KRASNODAR SUGAR CORN 4

KRASNODAR SUGAR CORN 4 — a mid-early hybrid of sweet corn that matures within 75-78 days from germination to the beginning of technical maturity. Plants reach a height of 168 to 215 cm, with the lower ear placement height ranging from 45 to 85 cm. Ears have a conical or slightly conical shape, measuring 17-20 cm in length and weighing between 198 to 240 g, with 14-16 rows of yellow sweet grains. The hybrid is distinguished by its resistance to downy mildew and stem rots, ensuring crop reliability.

For sowing, it is recommended to use seeds soaked for a day in water, planted at a depth of 4-8 cm in open ground after the threat of recurrent frosts and when soil temperature reaches 10°C. The optimal planting scheme is 45×45 cm. The crop is demanding for moisture and light, responds well to the application of organic or mineral fertilizers before sowing. Care involves weeding, loosening, hilling, and watering as needed. It is recommended to grow the hybrid separately from other varieties to avoid cross-pollination, which reduces grain sweetness.

KRASNODAR SUGAR CORN 4 is primarily intended for fresh consumption due to the excellent taste qualities of boiled products. The yield of pure condition ears is about 0.7 kg per square meter, making this hybrid attractive for cultivation in both private holdings and commercial production.
