Description

Early-maturing, medium-high variety with very high yield potential. The up to 15 cm long, pointed fruits ripen from dark green to bright red after about 80 days. Crisp, firm flesh of aromatic-sweet flavor. Fruit weight approx. 120-180 g. For outdoor and greenhouse cultivation.

Non hybrid

Not frost resistant

Growing tips

Cover the seeds only lightly with soil for germination, keep evenly moist but not wet and warm (min. 20°C, more likely 25°C). A bright location is also important. Prick out as soon as 2-4 true leaves are present. Harden off before planting out. When the first fruits start to form, fertilize about 1 time a week. The first flower can be broken out to encourage the formation of more fruits. Wind-protected locations are advantageous. Support shoots if necessary.
