Description
Sterling F1 onion is a medium-late day-neutral hybrid with a semi-sharp flavor and high taste quality. The plant forms round white bulbs weighing from 120 to 800 grams, which retain quality until January. This variety is widely used for fresh consumption, short-term heat treatment, and dietary cuisine, as well as in folk medicine due to its beneficial properties.
Sterling F1 exhibits high resistance to diseases, particularly pink and fusarium root rot, ensuring stable productivity even under adverse conditions. The onion tolerates drought well and does not bolt, maturing in field conditions even without rainfall. The maturation period is approximately 115 days, allowing cultivation in various climatic zones.
Seeds are sown directly into open ground in April. The variety is adapted for cultivation throughout Ukraine and forms bulbs within one season. Thanks to its qualities and resistance, Sterling F1 onion is a reliable choice for farmers seeking high-quality yields with long storage life.
