Afrodita

Consistent Yields in Open-Field Cultivation

The 'Afrodita' sweet pepper, developed by the Czech breeder Moravoseed, is a professional choice for growers who prioritize predictability in open-field conditions. With a maturity period of 75–80 days, this variety efficiently produces high-quality yields before peak summer heat or late-season temperature drops.

Agronomy and Fruit Development

Farmers value 'Afrodita' for its consistent, blocky shape. The fruits typically feature 3–4 well-defined chambers, which simplifies grading and post-harvest packaging. With a pericarp thickness of 5–6 mm, the fruit maintains a desirable crunch while offering the firmness required for reliable transportation to wholesale markets.

• Technical Maturity Stage: Deep green color. This allows growers to target the early market or specific niches demanding green-colored peppers.
• Biological Maturity Stage: Vibrant orange color. In this stage, the pepper maximizes sugar content and aromatic properties, making it highly attractive for fresh consumption and culinary use.

Practical Farm Application

The variety performs reliably with an average fruit weight of 160–190 grams. This is considered the «golden standard» for retail, as the size is ideal for both stuffing and fresh salad preparation. Thanks to its Czech breeding background, the plant is well-adapted to outdoor environments, exhibiting resilience against fluctuating weather conditions. Growers select this hybrid for plantings aimed at producing uniform, mid-sized produce that requires standard agricultural management without requiring overly complex maintenance.
