Description
Celest corn seeds are a medium-maturing hybrid with FAO 390, intended for grain production. This hybrid features a dent kernel type and intermediate adaptability, allowing successful cultivation on various soil types, especially in steppe and forest-steppe zones of Ukraine. The seeds carry a quality certificate confirming their authenticity and compliance with standards.
One key feature of the Celest hybrid is its reduced grain moisture by 5-6% compared to standard levels, which facilitates more efficient storage and processing of the harvest. The hybrid demonstrates high yield and resilience to adverse conditions, including drought, lodging, and rot. Additionally, the corn has a high water-excreting capacity, which accelerates maturation and reduces the risk of yield loss.
Celest also exhibits good resistance to diseases such as stalk and root rots, as well as pathogens like gray leaf spot, Helminthosporium, and rust. According to agronomic indicators, the hybrid scores highly for cold tolerance, drought resistance, and early development. The recommended planting density is 60-70 thousand plants per hectare in forest-steppe zones and 45-55 thousand in steppe zones, ensuring optimal conditions for maximum productivity.

Corn hybrids are classified by maturity groups and by the FAO number. All corn hybrids are distributed according to the FAO scale. Under Central European conditions, a difference of 10 FAO units between hybrids results in a 1-2 day difference in their maturity. The higher the FAO... |

Kernel Type
Dent corn (Zea mays indentata) — Large, elongated, flat kernels. The endosperm is horny on the sides of the kernel, mealy in the center and at the top. A depression forms at the top of the kernel upon ripening. Dent corn is the most widely cultivated group among others. Plants ty... |
