Season Overview

Description

Yellow F1 hybrid block bell pepper with sweet aromatic fruits. Resistant to viruses. The medium-sized, thick-walled, block-shaped, bright yellow peppers are 8-9 cm long, weigh around 150-180 g, are very juicy and have a slightly sweet taste. Growing height 80 cm. Early ripening from the end of July.

Growing tips

Germination in 7-14 days at 22-25°C. Can also be grown well in large containers. Peppers should be grown in nutrient-rich soil in a sunny location. For a rich harvest, the first flower (terminal bud/'king flower') should be broken out. This promotes flower and fruit formation on the side shoots. Pull the plants with 3-4 shoots and remove the remaining shoots. In Central Europe, cultivation is usually annual, but the highest yield is only achieved 2-3 years after planting. To achieve this, the plant must be overwintered indoors. The fruits are harvested from July to September, depending on the variety and weather conditions.
